Snack Smart
Snacking smart will give you more energy in the long run. Instead of visiting the vending machine for sugary pastries or salty chips, prepare for your cravings. Stock your desk with low-fat pretzels, granola bars, and mixed nuts or raisins. These snacks will quell your sweet and salty cravings while providing you with instant energy. And be sure to bring fresh, snackable fruits and veggies with you to munch on throughout the day: Apple slices, grapes, carrots, and celery give you great fiber content and a natural crunch. Here's a helpful list of snack options that are high in fiber.

Track your snacks to avoid nibbling throughout the day. Measure out your snacks at home and place them in individual bags. You'll cut calories by not having an endless supply of the snack at hand.
