Lunch

Lunch keeps your blood sugar and hunger levels in check and helps you avoid overeating in the evening. Set yourself up for success by making a list of healthy choices nearby that resemble these meals:

• 3–6 oz of chicken, salmon or lean meat on a bed of spinach or mixed greens with beets, apples, carrots, and crumbled cheese or avocado. Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic.
• 3–6 ounces of baked chicken or fish with fruit salsa and 1/2 cup cooked quinoa and steamed broccoli or leafy green vegetable. Drizzle with oil.
