  • I don't have a desk.... or a set locker.... so i leave a few things in my purse like a fruit&nut or oats&honey nature valley bar. If I absolutely have to I can go next door to the grocery store and pick something up.
  • I kept fruit in my drawer, but there was someone who kept going in my desk and stealing it. I put plastic fruit there instead, I looked and there were teeth marks on the apple, but it was put back, made my day...

    Right now I have:
    Reduced calorie hot cocoa packets (25 calories - fantastic when you need a chocolate fix)
    Microwave popcorn
    Kashi TLC bars
    Planters Nut-rition packets

    I also try to include something extra in my lunch bag for a morning snack, (yogurt, apple, etc) I become ravenous between breakfast at 5 a.m. and lunch at 11 a.m.

    I used to have a redbul fridge under my desk. When I decided to get healthy, I quit redbull. Only things in my drawers now are work related.

    Packets of Instant Grits. I did have hot cocoa mix, but I was started to abuse it.

    I work in a hospital... No desk for me. But in my locker you will find oatmeal packets, water, breath mints, peanut butter crackers, a box of kashi strawberry fields cereal, a can of soup, 3 hershey kisses and splenda. I always keep a veggie steamer bag in the comunal freezer. And I always have a Luna bar in my purse.
  • I have a locker!! Does that count?! If I left it at my nursing desk I am sure a patient would eat it all haha!!

    Funky Monkey dried fruits ( 110 calorie yummy packs!)

    Almonds

    Cashews

    80 Calorie Fiber One Cereal in plastic baggies all portioned out

    Starkist Tuna Light Low Sodium Packets

    Peanut butter (Jif Natural)
    Several kinds of tea (Tazo Focus, Earl Grey, and Calm, as well as Lipton Pure Green Tea)
    Orbit Peppermint gum (for those times when I think I'm hungry but really I'm just bored)

    Occasionally I have some kind of dried fruit & nut mix and whole wheat crackers.

    I also keep unsweetened applesauce, mandarin fruit cups, and smoked turkey in the break room fridge.
