That feeling of "Groundhog Day" boredom can set in, and we often find ourselves gravitating towards the kettle many times a day (I know I am guilty of this!).
However, it is very easy to open the snacks cupboard whilst waiting for the kettle to boil without even realising we're doing it, and reaching for a nice choccy biccie to go with that cuppa.
Do that several times a day and we're soon on that slippery spiral of falling off plan and telling ourselves we can't do this!
Here are some top tips of how to stay on your diet plan whilst working from home:
1. Start the day off right. 1:1 porridges are not only yummy, but keep you feeling full for ages too!
2. Set times for moving around. Just because you are working from home doesn’t mean you must be chained to your desk for 8-9 hours a day! Do some stretches, or go for a quick walk and fresh air around the block, your dog will love you for it!
3. Avoid buying high calorie snacks at the supermarket. If they're not in your cupboards, you can't eat them!
4. Cut bars into smaller pieces. Cutting them into small bites will extend the time it takes to eat them, and so you will feel fuller quicker!
5. Drink water and stay hydrated. People can very often mistake thirst for hunger.
6. When you feel yourself heading towards the fridge, ask yourself, "Am I actually hungry, or just bored?"
