Weight Loss Tips: Falling foul of the office vending machine.

Tips for day to day Healthy Weight Loss 

Not many offices provide fresh fruit or healthy snacks, as it is not a cost-effective option, although most will have a vending machine! Surprisingly though, those firms that do take the time to encourage their staff to eat healthily are viewed as good places to work, which shows that employees appreciate a bit of variety.


The key to eating healthily during your workday is your planning. If your routine in similar everyday, you can plan when and what to eat. If you have a canteen and it serves something healthy that fits in with your eating plan, then take the time to go away from your desk and eat properly. Eating on the go is one of the most common problems at work, closely followed by the lunch meeting that often comprises sandwiches, crisps and sticky buns. Use your lunch hour to take some exercise and eat properly, and this will help with your slimming plan.

When you are trying to lose weight the main problem with the office is snacking. In a large open plan office, there will inevitably be people snacking all the time; this will make it difficult for you to abstain. If you put your mind to it though it shouldn’t be as much of a problem as you think, because if you’re feeling hungry, you should have a snack. The rule to remember is to not dig in your pocket for 50p and go for a bag of crisps. Snacking on healthy foods such as nuts, seeds, fruit and vegetables is a healthier alternative; you can prepare a small container of snack food to keep in your desk drawer. Pretty soon, it will become second nature and you’ll forget where the vending machine is!
