One of the hardest sacrifices of being an office worker is to have a healthy diet routine while inside your office. Plus the fact that sometimes, there is an urge to nap on your desk after the lunch break, so the first thing that will come in your mind is a cup of coffee to keep an alert mind. But that isn’t enough. Try to swap your afternoon slump with one of these five low-calorie snacks to keep you going and fight off fatigue.
Banana and peanut butter
A midday snack should contain 15 grams of carbs or 100 calories in one meal. So having a banana can offer you as much as energy that you need for longer hours because of its sugary content. It takes longer for our body to metabolize natural sugar than those with the processed one having only artificial sweeteners. You can also add some spoonful of peanut butter for a long-lasting energy period. You can just buy a small peanut butter jar and bring it with you inside you tote bag.
Dried fruits
Bring a mix of good protein and healthy fat inside your bag before you get to the office to provide you the energy for the day. Fruits are rich in fiber with its sweet satisfying flavor you can no longer resist eating a handful of it during you break. Nuts and seeds like almonds and sunflower are also great snack to bring in your office.
Fresh fruits and veggies
Put it on the veggie bag and you’re ready on carrying on the go. It is because the simpler the food, the easier to carry on to your office and munch. Bring in some baby carrots and fresh fruits as well like apples. You can also bring some healthy protein bars occasionally with you because it’s better to eat natural foods than the artificially made products.
Hard Boiled Egg
It’s inexpensive and loaded with perfect nutrients that can keep you feeling fuller plus you get the healthy dose of reliable proteins. Boil it and peel a dozen at the start of the week and put it on a container, labeled it on the days of the week (Mon, Tues, Wed…) for an easy on-the-go-snack.
