Drink water: Sip water or other drinks with few or no calories to help maintain a healthy weight. Keep a water bottle in your bag or at your desk to satisfy your thirst throughout the day. (*Alice’s note: I sometimes try to limit my bad for you drinks to a certain amount each day. That way, I have to switch to water at some point and plan when I’m going to drink those yummy diet cokes. You won’t always make it, but at least you tried!) Go for great whole grains: Look for whole-wheat breads, popcorn, and whole-oat cereals that are high in fiber and low in added sugars, saturated fat, and sodium. Limit refined-grain products such as snack bars, cakes, and sweetened cereals. Nibble on lean protein: Choose lean protein foods such as lowsodium deli meats, unsalted nuts, or eggs. Store unsalted nuts in your desk or hardcooked eggs and deli meats in the office fridge to enjoy any time. (Don’t have an office fridge? Craigslist that right away. 100% worth it.) Wrap sliced, low sodium deli turkey or ham around an apple wedge for a great and healthy snack. Eat throughout the day: Keep your blood sugar level throughout the day to avoid that afternoon crash where you’ll likely crave sugar. Plan to eat every two-three hours. Keep an eye on the size: So we just told you to snack (as you should!). But snacks shouldn’t replace a meal. Store snack-size bags at your office and use them to control serving sizes. Fruits are quick and easy: Fresh, frozen, dried, or canned fruits can be easy “grab-and-go” options that need little preparation. Grab a bunch of them! They even have fruit at 7-11 and McDonald’s, so you have no excuses here. Make half your plate fruits and vegetables: Any time you have a chance, add fruit and vegetables to meals as part of main or side dishes. Choose red, orange, or dark-green vegetables like tomatoes, sweet potatoes, and broccoli, along with other vegetables for meals. Plan, plan, plan! We know you have very little time to meal plan and grocery shop (also, meal planning is SO adult). But most weeks, try to schedule in an hour to stop by a grocery store. Plan what you’re going to buy – any snacks you can have on hand to avoid eating a third brownie and any meals you have control over (like breakfast).
