    Can you cook some of your own meals? If so you can cook ahead lunches and prepare snacks for the week

    Try substituting healthy snacks. Like some almonds, or some quaker mini rice cakes, or some wheat thins. Also, peanut butter is a really good choice for a filling snack. If you need a meal on th go, try clif bars. Hope this was helpful!!! Good luck!

    First suggestion is to drink lots of water. That way your body can flush itself out. Second thing is to plan ahead and have healthy snacks available for the grab and go. I also won't eat after about 4:30 in the evening. Just water. I do eat a healthy breakfast with snacks. Boiled eggs are light on calories and good for you. Kind of a grab and go food for me. Also Frigo cheese heads light string cheese is another grab and go low on calories. Good Luck!
