Sitting at a desk and working behind a computer screen can be a daunting task. Mindlessly sitting for hours at a time can make a person seriously hungry. I am the type of person who gets more work done while I snack. But, things have changed. I can’t reach for that bag of chips anymore. I can’t even indulge in a beautiful sprinkled yellow and pink frosted Doughnut! I have to make better choices. The simple thought of that doughnut has my mouth watering. But, I know ultimately it’s not worth it. This journey to fitness and me being healthy means much more to me.
In order to combat my desire to snack on chips, doughnuts, candy, cookies, and the other large array of junk food that is readily available in my office I have started packing a special box. Known as “the Snack box” In this box I pack fruits, trail mix, cheese cubes, and all the other healthy yummy food you can think of. Anytime I feel hungry or a craving coming on, I simply pop open my Snack box and let the snacking begin. The box you see in the picture is also known as a “Bento box” or “Laptop Lunch system” I brought mine several years ago and it has withstood the test of time. You can check them out and purchase one (Here)
I love that I can snack throughout my day and not fill guilty. I also enjoy coming up with new healthy foods to put in my “Snack Box”. Having my box filled with healthy snacks helps me to stay away from all the unhealthy snacks floating around my office. It also helps me avoid the dreaded vending machine!!
