Many people decide to make New Year’s resolutions around eating better. Whether for weight loss or just making healthier choices, it’s always good to ensure you have good, nourishing food, with a few treats!
As many of us return to working in offices, you might be tempted by vending machines with sugary candy, salty chips, and cold sodas. While these are all fine in moderation, we have a few surprising tips to ensure you can stay on track with your goals and enjoy vending machines!
Keep Snacking
Yes, you read that right! Studies have shown that having smaller meals throughout the day sustains energy and curbs hunger. So, make sure your day includes breakfast, lunch, and plenty of snacks! Many offices have vending machines with healthy options– such as protein bars or even salads!
Stay Hydrated
Let’s be clear: if you’re hungry, you’re hungry! Never try to curb hunger with liquid. However, staying properly hydrated can help you feel better and be more aware while you eat. If you’re not a fan of plain water, you can add flavor drops or go with options like unsweetened iced tea!
Tip: while many think that juice is a healthy choice- it often is filled with high amounts of sugar and calories. Double-check what you’re getting if you’re trying to be aware of those things!
Treat Yourself
Another surprising one! Now, to be fair, we don’t mean every day. Sometimes you may need to resist the urge to grab a candy bar, and instead have some fruit. But let’s be honest- some days, the only thing that will curb that craving is the candy bar.
The best solution is to honor your intense cravings- often, when people ignore their cravings, it later leads to overindulgence. So, if you’re going on a few days of craving the same thing: get it! Allow yourself to enjoy it, and return to your conscientious eating!
