<human>: Hey everyone, I'm new to loseit.  I'm starting my first workout/diet routine ever. My doctor says I need to get my cholesterol under control.  I'm 23, 5' 10", and was 240 lbs. (now 236 lbs), and going to law school, and can only devote 1 hour per day to working out.  So far, I've been doing 30 minutes of cardio  (stairstepper usually) and 15 minutes of weights and push-ups. 

I've cut out soda, beer, and red meat.  I've switched to skim milk, olive oil, whole grain, and brown rice.  I've switched from pork and beef to chicken and fish, and I've bought a bunch of vegetables.  My menu for next week's dinners are: Chicken fajitas, 15 bean soup, chicken stir fry, curried fish with brown rice, and chili (with ocra and mushrooms instead of beef)

My current goal is healthy cholesterol and a weight of 199. I haven't weighed less than 200lbs since jr. high (nearly a decade ago) I want to surprise my doctor when I head in next month.  

My breakfasts are usually cheerios (generic brand), but I'm unsure what I should be eating for lunch.  As it is, I've been eating a sandwich and a banana.  The sandwich has processed lunch meat and cheese on it, which I think should probably be the next things I cut out of the diet.  Does anyone have some advice on healthier lunches?  I am on the go, and salad just doesn't do it for me.  Would a baked potato be a better option?   Any advice for healthier meals would be more than welcome.  I love to cook (and unfortunately, I love to eat), and would eagerly read any recipes 
 loseit had to offer.

<bot>: I need to get my act together: what are some easy, cheap, and filling healthy lunches I can eat?  What other tips can you give someone for low cholesterol living?
