Middle School lunch??

jrgsmadiso

in middle school, i dont know what i should do about lunch. i dont know if i should take a luchbox, it might be a hassle, a paper sack, or just buy it. tell me what you would do please.

Answer
I always hated carrying anything outa the lunch room with me, especially since once i got to high school i didn't always go to my locker right after lunch. If I brought my lunch i used a paper bag, in both middle and h.s people still brought lunch boxes too. If I liked what was for lunch, I bought. My school had pizza, salads, wraps, and subs everyday, so i did end up buying a lot. Some schools are way overpriced with lunches though. I would say buy lunch on days you like something they have/want to buy, bring if you don't and the lunch box thing will depend on if you go to your locker right b4 and after lunch , or if ur willing to carry it around. In my school most guys bought , i guess they didnt think it was cool to bring a lunch, and the girls were pretty well split b/w bringing and buying. Good luck in middle school, its way better than gradeschool!

What are some good things to bring to work for lunch?

My husband has always worked as a subcontractor and was able to come home for lunch or if he was very busy would skip lunch. Now (after rupturing a hernia for the second time) he is working an office job and is too far away to come home so he has been eating fast food five days a week. I've been telling him to pack a lunch and he wouldn't do it. Now 3 months and 10 pounds later he is ready to pack a lunch but doesn't want sandwiches everyday. I'm not too creative for lunches, but want him to stop with the fast food, so any advice?
He does have a fridge and microwave available

Answer
The wonderful world of brown bagging it. Does he have a microwave and a fridge available. If he does than it's a no-brainer. My wife will make 5 days worth of Chicken stir fry and I tupperware it to the office everyday. Healthy/Economical and Tasty. You can even add rice if you like...but if you are trying to drop the weight I would suggest brown rice if any at all.

Guys don't want to pack a lunch every morning....it sucks. I would rather go without than make a sandwich every morning. I think men have a problem with making food without eating it right then. At least if you do it on Sunday it will be done in one shot. Alot of the times we will eat stir fry for dinner on Sun and I take 3 or 4 days worth the following week.

Good Luck.

What healthy school lunch can a active 17 year old guy take to school?

Tom Hansen

Hi, this year I'm deciding to skip the long lunch lines and am going straight for a packed lunch. I usually eat meals with a good amount of protein and don't really want to take a ham sandwich. I might take a Cliff bar and a Powerade or a juice with me. I can't microwave stuff at school.

Answer
I would not recommend a clif bar or power aid/juice for a healthy meal since both are pretty rich in sugar. Clif bars are usually used for endurance athletes who do mountain climbing n stuff.
As for a healthy meal, jut try to incorporate a balanced amount of complex carbs, proteins, and healthy fats. And don't forget the fiber.
This way you can mix and match what you like.
For example:
-proteins: chicken breasts, turkey breast, egg whites, lean beef, tuna
-complex carbs: oats, brown rice, whole wheat bread, sweet potatoes
-healthy fats: avocado, nuts, peanut butter, coconut oil (not too much), salmon
-fiber: fruits, broccoli, asparagus, veggies

These can be combined into combinations such as:
- chicken breast, sweet potato, nut butter
- beef and brown rice with broccoli
- turkey breast sandwich with avocado and lettuce and tomato
- salad with chicken breast and nuts

As for snacks, you can pack baggies of baby carrots and sliced cucumber, nuts and dried fruit, or a decent protein bar.
I'd recommend quest bars- they are made with natural ingredients, are low carbohydrate, and taste great.

As for the microwave lacking issue, I just stick my tupperwares in a lunch bag with an ice pack. I don't mind eating my food cold to be honest.

As for drinks, go for water or all natural coconut water- it is slightly sweet but won't give you a sugar spike

What are some cool things to do at bithday partys?

Jade

My birthday is wensday, but i'm doing my party friday for more time. I relaly want to throw a great party. I'm inviting girls and guys to the party. I had mainly the same people come to my christmas party and they were really crazy and we got bored fast. I don't want that to happen again. Anybody got some really cool ideas of stuff to do? No spin the bottle and stuff my parents would flip.

Answer
You could do a scavanger hunt, or you could do a fun competition like Iron chef and then eat the results. Here is a website that lists a whole bunch of ideas. Hope you find something appealing to you.

Ideas for Coed Teen Party Games

Whether itâs a sweet 16 birthday party or just some friends getting together, itâs fun to have some interactive games that allow teens to show off their talents, engage in conversation, or take safe chances.

Music Video Charades. Divide the group into two mixed gender teams. Give them five minutes to come up with ten popular musical acts with videos on YouTube or on music television. Without using music, each team acts out a scene from a video for the others to guess.

Pop Culture Trivia. Look at teen magazines and MySpace for information on celebrities, pop stars, and other hot topics. Write out fun facts and have players answer. Prizes can be related to some of the trivia subjects.

Taste it. Put a variety of food items into small, numbered plastic containers. The object is to have a sample with your eyes closed and write down what you think you just ate. Items such as bittersweet chocolate, guacamole, strained carrots, spaghetti sauce, marshmallow fluff, ground up saltines, and the like work well for the harmless âewâ factor. Donât get too gross, and be aware of potential food allergies.

Touch it. Similar to taste it, you write down what you think you touched. Separate some tactile things into numbered paper lunch bags. Fun items such as a feather boa, gummy worms, a piece of velvet, double-stick tape, shaving cream or pudding, a nest of fishing line, and other unusual items make for funky fun.

Ice Breakers. Adults make it through many business networking functions by the grace of party ice breakers. Two popular games of this genre are sentence starters and Q&A.

In sentence starters, people go around the room finishing sentences such as:

* If I were a superhero, Iâd rid the world ofâ¦
* I have neverâ¦
* In the fifth grade, I onceâ¦
* If I were a dog, Iâd be aâ¦

In Q&A, every party attendee has a piece of paper attached to his or her back as they arrive. On the paper is a person, place, or thing. The attendee can make three attempts to guess whatâs on the paper by asking other party goers questions, to which they answer âwarm,â âcold,â or âyes.â
[edit]
Make a Game Out of Party Food

Another idea for coed teen party games is to get everybody in the kitchen to make the groupâs party snacks.

Individual pizzas. Be it a meat-lovers or all cheese, thereâs a type of pizza for every teen. Prepare a variety of ingredients ahead of time, and use the packaged dough rounds, jarred sauce, and shredded cheese. Set out all the components, and let each attendee create his or her own pizza. This method also works well for building ice cream sundaes and banana splits, too.

Mock cocktails. Donât think of this as encouraging drinking behavior as much as a way to establish an understanding of how flavors mix and match. Set up a station of different juices, syrups, mixers
, and garnishes, along with fancy glasses, and a list of mocktails to try. Rule number one: no matter how âucky,â if you mixed it, you drink it!

What are your practical tips to save money for a single guy who lives alone and has a regualar job?

travelnook

In my blog http://travelnooks.wordpress.com/, I've posted some tips that have worked for me regarding saving money? Any more practical tips for me? Thanks in advance guys :)

Answer
When I first started doing our budget, I found we were spending lots of money on food. Eating out, snacks from the gas station, prepackaged snacks, vending machines... Now we save by planning a menu, buying bulk, buying the "big bag", and splitting things into portions in Ziploc bags. We always bring our lunch to work with us, cause we feel like if we are going to spend the extra money to go out to eat, we want to go out on a date.

Also, just writing out the budget and tracking our expenditures seems to help. My husband and I both hate to see that at the end of the month we went way over in any given category.
