Tabouleh is a good lunch item because it's very portable, easy to make and has lots of vegetables. It's also tastier than a plain salad.
Make 1/3 of a cup of brown rice. To this, add finely chopped onion, tomato and parsley. The parsley is meant to be a vegetable in itself, not a garnish, so add a decent amount in proportion to the rest of the items. Stir this together and dress with a little olive oil, salt, pepper, etc.
Also, kipper snacks are a very good meat item. They're made from herring fillets, and unlike sardines and other little fish that come in tins, kipper snacks are smoked so they don't have an overly strong fish taste. If you really hate fish, you still might not like kipper snacks, but they're very good and have more omega 3 than most any other fish. In fact, herring, sardines, anchovies and other little fish are a better source of omega 3 than salmon.
As for sweeteners, honey is great. It's a lot sweeter than sugar but has less carbohydrates and is less processed. Agave is good too.
If you're switching to whole grains like brown rice from white rice, bear in mind that brown rice takes a lot longer to cook and requires around twice as much water per batch than white rice. Additionally, most Americans have minor deficiencies in vitamin C, and 15% have subclinical scurvy, so you should eat a piece of fresh citrus every day. I usually go for limes just because I love the taste, but all citruses are good sources of vitamin C. Red bell peppers are also a GREAT source of vitamin C.

You should really try and take it more gradually, otherwise you will be more likely to give up and return to old habits. You also need to see which changes make you feel better and which don't, if you do it slowly you will know if you are doing something your body does not agree with.
I suggest starting with eating one type of whole-grain eg, bread and then add another "rule" each week.
