Trouble with eating too much after lunch. Help?

GingerLolita

Maybe to make your lunch more protein-heavy, you could have rice and beans together because they'll make a cheap complete protein.

I'm also a college student on break, but I make sure that most of my foods require some preparation. I don't want to cook and slice veggies every second, so I won't be eating all the time either. I also pre-log so I don't just eat everything in sight.

Find some productive things to do with your time. I've been clearing out my email inboxes, updating my resume, and I plan to update my LinkedIn and write some articles for our school magazine before break ends.

I understand that it's difficult to eat at home when you're used to being on your own with only food you want to eat. I was home for Christmas last week and I had unhealthy dinners three nights in a row, as well as plenty of cookies. If you're going to eat something unhealthy, save it for the end of the day when you're not worried as much about fullness, and make sure to log it.
