Breakfast is an easy meal - cereal, eggs,
toast, pancakes. The list goes on. Dinner is equally as easy
- it's whatever your parents decide to cook for you.
But then there's lunch. Whether you're standing in line at
the school cafeteria, at food court in the mall, or just in
your kitchen, deciding on what to eat for lunch is a hard
decision. Should you eat a sandwich, hamburger, chicken, salad?
Of course, what you will decide is up to your personal taste,
however we can offer some suggestions for a healthy and filling
lunch.

Side orders and snacks are very tempting,
especially when schools and malls offer a variety of
tasty treats. A lot of these side orders are packed
with as many calories as your meal, not to mention that
many are deep fried and unhealthy. To the right are
a list of healthy snacks to pack or buy.
If you're dying for your favorite brownie or those
sour cream and onion potato chips, satisfy your craving.
However go for a small serving. You can probably satisfy
your craving with only a bite of a brownie or a handful
of chips.
If you don't feel like you're full after your meal,
try drinking some water. You might not even be hungry
enough for a side order. |
