Lunch

Sitting at your desk, most likely from 8-5 or for those New Yorkers, 9-8..... I always find when my tummy starts to grumble and my eyes glaze over from my constant stare at my computer screen this is the "lunch signal."  Although today this happened at 10:45.  After drinking a little water and eating a mini cup cake left at the receptionists desk I was able to tied myself over until noon. By the way those mini cupcakes were sheer decadence.  I am tempted to go get another one but as my life style has rapidly changed from constant movement outside to only the typing of my fingers and the swivel of my chair, I have to resist the temptations.  Finding the the balance between food coma and being left with the feeling of hunger is the key to returning to work with the utmost productivity.  It's only been 2 days and I am learning more every day.  Tips so far: ---

1) bring a water bottle (this saves both plastic and encourages you to drink more water) 

2) keep a protein bar or piece of fruit at your desk

I will let you know if i come up with any other secrets to success
