Best foods for an office worker?

I need to start cutting down on the sh*t I eat at work. Start replacing the chocolate with something else, and the sandwiches with something else.

Don t get me wrong, I m not a mega beast, I just have switched jobs and need to make sure I don t gain weight. I still go to the gym 3 times a week, but as this job is a desk job I need to make my eating habbits better so to not gain weight.

What are the best forms proteins to put into a lunch? Also what about snacking in between?

I don t want to go living on purely chicken, rice, and veg forever, so a suggestion of different meals or snacks would be nice.

    Avoid processed food. It contains sugar and salt which makes you hungry. So the usual healthy food, salad veg bean seeds and some nuts. If you want more exciting tastes had chillies, lemon, vinegar, olive oil, herbs and spices. Drink lots of water.

    After 3 weeks your sugar and salt cravings will disappear and you will start tasting and enjoying the veg flavours.

    Always have water available. Have your lunch and 2 snacks to keep your metabolism going. And go for walks at break times.

    Chicken, cheese, veggies and a bit of carbs is good. Replace chicken w fish for variety and use good seasonings so u dont get bored w your food.
