Not exactly an auspicious start

Well, my efforts to both lose weight and economize got off to a less-than-stellar start today.

I hate days that start like that!
On the bright side it gets easier with time and it does save alot of money! I'm glad your still going to bring in our own food, I have found it really helps...and it doesn't eat up your break time driving somewhere.
Actually (apart from this minor setback) your plan will really work. From experience, lunch at work is a huge budget on its own. I get paid monthly, so I usually look at expenses on monthly basis and it's a HUGE sum. Packing lunch REALLY made a difference on my pocket.. and I don't even need to mention the calories cuz we all know how much calories those stuff can pack. And also when I ordered lunch, I noticed that I get fries here, chocolate there, you know.. just because things are available.
Do you have the option of using a fridge at work? You can leave a carton of milk there.
At least you had a plan :) AND even though your day started off not so great you said that when you threw your sandwich out you had to go buy another...
See, even then "the plan" didn't go right you didn't fall off the wagon!! Way to go. And I like to think that when things are really bad they can only get better :)
