    I generally eat out with the girls in the office... but I need to stop that because I realized I spend quite a lot doing so! Yikes.

    I bring my lunch and then follow a co-worker to the deli and eat there with them. Usually pb&j, wheat thins, a diet soda, and a low-cal dessert.

    If there are leftovers I definitely bring them, otherwise I bring something new. I will head out for lunch once and awhile. My fave lunch activity is sitting on the deck and reading while I eat. Smiling

    I usually bring my lunch, but since I have an hour for lunch and the actual process of eating only takes a few minutes - I ALWAYS go outside. I usually take a walk, window shop, on Tuesdays I got to the farmer's market @ lunch...whatever it is I spend about 45 minutes outside doing anything but sitting (I work in SF)

    For the most part, I bring lunch and snacks. Typically left-overs. And if I'm having a lazy day, I go get me a sandwich. (Like today!)

    I try to bring leftovers, but sometimes there is nothing left over, so I'll buy lunch with my coworkers. I do try to get out of the office when the weather is nice. Its great to get up & away from my desk & the florescent lighting for a while

    I usually eat out (which is getting to be so expensive here in Century City) unless I have leftovers. The whole office picks a different restaurant every week for Friday lunches.

    I like to eat lunch from home. My boyfriend works half days on Friday, so sometimes we go out to lunch or he brings me something he made and we will eat outside or in his car depending on the weather.

    I try to get out of the office to walk or sit and enjoy the weather, but sometimes it just doesn't happen.

    I like to bring my lunch as often as possible. If I don't have leftovers I make a simple cheese sandwich and pair it with fruit. I'm also more of a grazer and will eat half of my sandwich at 1 and the other half at 3 or 4.

    I usually eat a salad at my desk that I premade at home. I get up early so I leave time in the morning to get everything together. Today it's red peppers and olives with mixed greens: new week i might try that black bean cobb salad on the site (if not definitely a dinner plan!!!)

    Does a sandwich count as making something new? Seems liek the same old thing to me when I'm eating it every day. I go out to lunch once in a blue moon.

    Almost every day I bring salad greens and a pre-cooked chicken breast and assemble a grilled chicken salad here at work. Either that or a frozen lunch. Then I surf this site while I eat.

    It depends. Sometimes it is so easy to order lunch while at work (which I REALLY should not do--too costly and heath issues). But I sometimes will bring in left overs or make my own lunch and bring it in. Smiling

    All of the above!

    I usually eat out for one lunch a week. And I have days where I don't eat lunch at all. And about once a week I'll have something new that I've made that later becomes leftovers for the rest of the week.

    I used to just skip lunch all the time, but I'm trying to be better about that these days.

    I eat leftovers every day. I actually make it a point to have more food prepared at dinner so I can pack it for my lunch.

    I treat myself to a lunch out with friends in the area every two moths or so. I like the convenience of bringing my own lunch and the savings that comes with it!
