Looking for something to get you through the afternoon on a busy work day when you don’t have time to stop? Keeping some healthy but smart work snacks either at your desk or in the fridge at work is a great way to stay energized throughout the day and ensure that you aren’t going to succumb to vending machine fare.
It’s important that you are regularly feeding your body to keep your energy levels and concentration in tact so that you can get everything done that you need to.
Let’s look at some great at-work snack ideas that you’ll want to consider.
Beef Jerky
Beef jerky is a great way to get some added protein into your day and will be a terrific low carb option for those who are following a more strict diet plan.
Beef jerky will help provide some iron as well, which will ensure your energy levels stay up during exercise and that you don’t risk suffering from anemia.
Try and choose the lower sodium varieties to keep this down and prevent water retention.
Greek Yogurt With Chia Seeds And Berries
Second, the next smart at-work snack is Greek yogurt with Chia seeds and berries. This is a very well balanced snack as you’ll get a good combination of healthy fats, fiber from the berries, and protein from the yogurt.
It makes for an easy snack on the go. Be sure to select Greek yogurt that doesn’t have any added sugars to it for optimal benefits.
Canned Low-Sodium Soups
Finally, you may also want to consider bringing some lower sodium canned soups with you to work as well. Stay away from creamy varieties and instead go for a vegetable soup, a chicken vegetable, or a turkey noodle.
Most will come in around 200-300 calories and will help fill you up in a hurry, so can be a good option to have on hand.
If you can prepare your own soup to bring with you to work, that’s even better.
So there you have some of the top snack ideas that can quickly help you get through the afternoon and feel your best at all times. Choose these more often and you should feel better and see faster weight loss progress.
