Yes, you're probably running around like a crazy woman in the morning. Getting dressed, maybe getting the kids ready for school. Regardless, you absolutely can NOT skip breakfast. You already wake

up in a calorie-deficit so give your body the much needed fuel it craves. 

Go for a hearty breakfast with protein, carbs and, yes, fat. Healthy and natural fats like almonds

and avocados are perfect to start your day. 

1) This will keep you from getting "hangry" in your morning meeting.

2) It jumpstarts your metabolism for the day.

3) When you eat breakfast

you are less likely to indulge in unhealthy mid-morning snacks and vending machine binges. Did someone bring in cookies? How lovely for them! YOU ate a kickass breakfast and so YOU aren't feeing tempted

to eat those empty, extra calories! Good job. 

If you have a desk drawer or a cubby of your own, keep a small stash of healthy snacks. These snacks will have some dense nutritional value, as opposed to

something that is empty calories like potato chips. Try almonds, almond butter, packets of tuna and crackers etc. All of these will last  a while, are easily portable and will

satiate your hunger. 

Put it this way, by the time you roll into your place late at night, the last thing you want to do is prepare and eat a super heavy dinner.

Instead, eat a more substantial lunch. Don't be afraid of carbs and healthy fats -- believe me, your body needs these! And what YOU need is to have enough energy throughout

the day! Make sure your meal has protein, carbs and fats in it. It's better for you to eat more robust meal in the afternoon than one right before bed. 

If you are someone who enjoys meal prepping, then take a Sunday and map your meals out for the week, shop and cook in advance. Some find this tedious, others

a work of art! The point is to have meals ready and at your fingertips so there is never  a last-minute scramble to find something nutritious to keep hunger at

bay! The moment that lunch takeout order starts circulating, your chances of making a health choice plummet.. So be prepared!

It's never been easier to get nutritionally sound, delicious foods directly to your door or workplace. If cooking isn't your thing, or you truly can't find the time, the best thing

you can do is to have high-quality food delivered directly to you. We've personally tried a service called Munchery, for example, which you can order in the morning

have have delivered to you during the day directly at work! We also have friends who've enjoyed meals from Elite Lifestyle Cuisine shipped to them weekly. Whatever service

you use, the point is that you can VERY easily get delicious and healthy food delivered to your home or office. Rely on that and you'll never go stray with

a mid-day takeout binge!

We'll get straight to the point. Sugars and refined grains will give you a momentary energy-high but then plunge your body into a slump. So this rule applies to everything

you might eat durning the day. From breakfast through lunch and snacks. If you're going to eat foods that are sweet, find stuff that is flavored naturally. If you crave

something sweet, try a few squares of dark dark chocolate or a protein bar that's made of the good stuff.
