Ever since I was diagnosed I've been trying to find a lunch that was easy to
get ...and take to work. I used to have one of the Subway size bags of
chips, a 6 inch sub and a small can of Mandarin oranges with a large Dr.
Pepper. When I first got my meter I took it to work for several days and
tested at 1 and 2 hours. First day - 174 and 1 hr. Second day - 214 at one
hour. So, something had to be done.

I started buying South Beach TV dinners to take to work and switched to Diet
Dr. Pepper. 1 hr - usually around 140, 2 hrs around 120.... pretty good
there - but tasteless and boring. So, again, something had to be done.

Here's what I found... Tasty/variety and filling... works for me so maybe
some of you working people who take lunch might find that it'll do for you
to.

1 large Dr. Pepper
1 half convenience store type bag of hot pork skins
1 Subway wrap with everything on it you can get
1 serving (cup) of Dannon Light& Fit Carb& Sugar Control yogurt (really
tasty)

My BG at 1 hr - 114, at 2 hrs - 101 (from beginning of meal)

(I'm not toooooo worried about fat an calories right now... 6' tall,
165lb... just trying to get control and still be satisfied with a meal)

Hope this helps somebody with a work lunch problem.

Hey John,

Just want to say I admire how far you've come in your meal selections--
especially since I know at first your heart really wasn't in it.
You've kept tweaking until you've found the meals that work for you.
Great job!
