Weekly Habit: Pack Your Lunch
You’ve probably heard it over and over, but packing your lunch can help you save calories. I know my typical bought lunch is a hamburger, fried chicken bites, or hotdog. I may have some fruit or yogurt, but I may also have some fries. Not great.
Leftovers are a good choice, but not always available or convenient. I try to keep a microwave container of soup in my office for lunch “emergencies.” It’s healthy, and if I grab something like fruit or a small salad, it makes a healthy lunch. Frozen dinners are also a good choice. Okay, they have too much sodium and preservatives, but they beat the heck out of a burger and fries.
If you must eat out, then try to limit yourself to healthier choices when you can. Subs, grilled chicken, roast beef can all be good choices. Just watch out for the cheese and sauces, which can add lots and lots of calories.
So, let’s try packing lunch Monday through Friday, or whatever your work week is.
