Snap out of it! You may be subconsciously eating at work!


WHAT TO EAT TO CONTROL HUNGER AT THE OFFICE
Are you reaching for the chocolate immediately after your lunch? Are you carelessly finishing a bag of chips without satiating your hunger? This is a cruel cycle but one that can be fixed. Lunch that will make you full because they are rich in nutrients (and I'll make sure flavorful!) will end your grumblin' stomachs. But who wants to spend time making lunch? Not I! And neither do you! These are fast and simple recipes that can be prepared the morning of work...
Warning: your coworkers will ask for a taste!
