Avoiding the food court.
I'm concerned and would like some help on this. I just got a second job working at the mall. I'm worried that I won't be able to keep up with my need to eat healthy. There is a lunch room and fridge, but i'll be going from one job to the other most days, so i'll need something healthy that will keep. The reason I had to get the second job is because we're trying to pay down our debt. In 44 months, I can be debt free if we start the program in December (SO LONG CREDIT CARDS!). I also have high blood pressure so I need things with a normal if not lower amount of sodium. I thought about easy mac because it doesn't need a fridge and only needs water, but I know that isn't very healthy. I thought about buying the frozen meals, but they won't keep all day, our fridge at work doesn't have a freezer.

New fresh meals
I suggest Marie Calendar's frozen meals. They are low in calories with a good amount of protein and low fat. However, if not having a freezer is a problem you may want to try those new fresh mixers from Healthy Choice (there are a couple of other companies that make similar products). They aren't frozen and require no refrigeration... just microwave. I haven't tried them yet, but they are supposedly pretty good.
If you are on a high protein / low carb diet, you can always bring along protein bars or lunch meats... and eat those when you are hungry.

Easy lunch
My job has me outside and away from any fridge.
I'll bring along an apple or other fruit, and pick up a protein bar while out.
Watch out for the fats in those bars.
Another option... bring along some flavoured protein powder, you can add that to milk or water, and again , some fruit.
Cheers

I think you can solve this problem by taking the type of salad or fruit that you have prepared at home, or you can take it to work in a storage container by making healthy meals at home, regardless of our priority should be to eat healthy. I usually go on a diet when I gain weight and play games to get away from food, and these days I play football legends , it makes me forget to eat.
