Americans are working longer and longer hours than ever before. Whether at the office, a coffee shop or at home, work time also can be stress time. If you’re like most people, when you’re feeling stressed you’re also less like to pay attention to what you’re eating.
Unfortunately, that’s a recipe for poor nutrition. Whether or not you are at work, you still need to consume a certain number of calories a day to maintain your weight (given your individual height and weight), or less if you are trying to lose it. To stay within those boundaries, you need to be aware of your food choices at every meal and not turn stress or time limitations into excuses for overeating.
