[Gwella]

Some kind of fish (usually seabass if I can get it, prawns)
Eggs
Fatfree natural yoghurt
Pomelo, pineapple, mango or some other exotic delicious fruit
Babybels

Can I cheat and add a drink too?
Diet Coke (bad for you but good for slimming - one hurdle at a time!)

Also in the house we always have pasta, rice, wonderful wonderful frylight, tinned tomatoes, garlic, bouillon, sundried tomatoes, dried mushrooms, and millions of herbs (esp coriander) and spices (esp fenugreek).

 

[Madame Vastra]

Muller Light - regular and Greek style
Braeburn apples
HiFi bars or Alpen Light bars
Bell peppers
Onions

Can't make many meals out of that though! I buy fresh stuff (fruit and veg, cheese, ham, that sort of thing) every couple of days, and stock up on the heavy-but-long-lasting things like tinned tomatoes and fizzy water once a month by Tesco home delivery. If I buy loads of stuff at once I find I eat much more of it than I need to because it's new and interesting - if I only have a couple of kinds of fruit in at a time, I eat when I'm hungry rather than just because it's there and it looks nice.
