I do much better at work sInce I'm chained to my desk and can't grab grub whenever I want.0

I work from home, so.... I'm totally screwed!!!! :-)
My old assignment with my company was very stressful and I had lots of meetings/conf calls throughout the day.... working 12 hour days, so... I used to find myself grazing all the time in the kitchen/pantry/fridge. I would just go and grab something quick in between meetings, etc.
However, now that I have a new assignment that isn't as stressful, and.... I have started my weight loss journey, I actually do OK at home, but... it requires discipline. But now that I've been doing this for 5 months, I no longer crave the junk food and carbs, and I am making healthier choices.
But... bottom line... I think it's easier to eat better at work than at home....0 -
I'm like you. I do better at work. I pack my lunch and snacks. Once it is gone, I'm done until I get home for dinner. The weekends are always tough for me though. But I continue to work on that and keep healthier food in the house.0

I do better at work. I pack my lunch and snacks, and that is it for the day.
I tend to eat less junk when I work out, I don't want to undo all the hard work!0 -
