The start of working life inevitably leads many people to gain weight. This is due to long hours, a sedentary lifestyle, and of course, lack of planning. Although changes in schedules can have a negative effect on your measurements, it doesn't mean you will always gain a few pounds.
Don’t let your new job affect your weight. Follow these tips to maintain your eating habits:
Plan your meals by making a weekly menu.
Always prepare your food at home.
Bring healthy snacks to the office.
Don’t give in to pressure. If you’re not hungry, don’t eat.
Try to stick to your meal times.
Drink plenty of water.
The most important thing to avoid gaining weight at work is organization. Plan in advance what you will eat each day, so you won’t have to worry about extra pounds. After three days at work, do you have no ideas on what to prepare? With these recipes, you can enjoy delicious meals at work without guilt:
Chicken Breast in Green Sauce and Rice with Zucchini
Prepare this recipe the night before and store it in a compartmentalized container. To prevent the food from soaking, we recommend serving the sauce in a small airtight container.
Homemade Mexican Picadillo
Picadillo is one of those dishes that never fails. Cook it over the weekend and diversify it: one day serve it with rice, another day pair it with black beans, and finally make golden tacos with the leftovers.
Green Apple and Lettuce Salad
To avoid struggling with food coma later, prepare a light salad. In a small container, mix the liquid ingredients and keep them separate. This way, you won’t have to worry about spilling the dressing everywhere.
Risotto
To make a good risotto, it’s important to use the right rice (not just any will do). The best part about this dish is that it’s a bit creamy without being too liquid. Just in case, store it in an airtight container.
Pear and Gorgonzola Panini
Although this recipe tastes much better when freshly made, you can also store it in a container for lunch. We suggest heating the panini for a few seconds in the microwave. If you leave it too long, the bread may become soggy.
