Bringing your lunch to work with you used to be as simple as sliding your favorite meats and a little mayo between two huge slices of bread with a side of potato chips and a coke - right?

Unfortunately, this national habit has led to a country full of obese people.

Now that you are eating a healthy breakfast and dinner at home, don't ruin your new diet plan with a calorie-laden, nutrient-deficient lunch.

Instead, here are ten easy ways to enjoy a low-carb, healthy lunch.

Why is it that some women have all the luck?

From great, movie-star hair, to a naturally thin frame, some women just seem to have it all, effortlessly. Or, do they?

Can it really ever be effortless to maintain a lean body?

Can the rest of us -- the ones who sweat it out in boot camp and diet away to maintain our healthy frame -- learn the tricks of lean-ness that some women seem to naturally possess?

Or is it just a myth that certain habits can lead to a fitter, leaner body?

If you are like most women, you want to look your best at all times.

Sure, we all have those instances where we run out to the store in sweats and a t-shirt, but the overall goal is to look great even in that attire.

It's been said that "with age comes wisdom," and that certainly applies to staying fit and healthy.

Just look are at the celebrities in their 40’s and 50’s who have taken being fit and looking great to another level.

Women like Madonna, Ashley Judd, Halle Berry, Courtney Cox and others seem to have found the fountain of youth.

In a perfect world, we would naturally only eat until our brains told our body that we had enough food to survive comfortably with, and then we would stop eating.

We would listen for the signal our brain sends to our stomach to recognize that we’ve satisfied (not stuffed) our hunger.

As a result, overeating and needless grazing would be eliminated and our waistlines would thank us for it.

However, when you get that strong craving that you feel compelled to feed, it doesn’t feel like perfect world conditions, does it?
