I personally love leftovers from dinner the night before (if there are any). Otherwise a chicken sandwich or peanut butter on toast.
Homemade pizza is also delicious for lunch! If you have access to a microwave or oven that would be good.
Otherwise if I have nothing at home to bring I get something like Indian or Chinese (ie. moderately healthy) from the shops nearby.
I like to eat a lot but sometimes I have a little bit for lunch (ie. snack bar) and save my feasting for dinner time. As long as I've had a big breakfast though.

Salad is fast and easy and can be made in advance for 2 days. Add protein like turkey or ham or an egg if cholesterol is not a concern. Carrots, radishes tomato and cucumber added to mixed greens is great for you. Keep your salad dressing in a separate container.
The protein is not overwheming where blood needs to rush to the digestive area, which makes a person tired.

Soups are a good thing to eat for lunch. Most are low in calories and provide a lot of nutrients that you need. plus they are easily carried and if you have access to a microwave or have a thermal soup thingy will be hot.

Depends on your goal. As a diabetic, I pick low glycemic foods, or foods high in protein. Eating like a diabetic is a good idea for a person who wants to be in better health. Control your carbs.
An apple is a good snack. For me, high protein snacks like string cheese or beef jerky are good choices. They might be high in fat for you, but I am a personal trainer. I'm thin and can allow for the extra fat - I'll burn it off.

Raw almonds, natural applesauce packs with no added sugar, sliced celery and carrot sticks (I pack a small container of natural peanut butter or almond butter to dip the celery in). bananas, grapes, an apple.

Yogurt and a fruit and mix them together. Vanilla yogurt goes with most fruits, but you can buy those fruit cups or canned of individual serving, drain and mix with the yogurt
