If it's anything like the snack machine here, the BEST you can hope for is 200 calories of empty carby crap that will just make you feel hungrier in an hour.
Tomorrow - plan to have a healthy snack on hand. Nuts, string cheese, piece of fruit, jerky, etc.
Yep - I'm a firm believer in planning for this. If you're genuinely hungry, and not head-hungry, it could be that for whatever reason, your body needs a bit more fuel today...and that's fine and normal (FWIW, I never experienced any gain or slowdown from adding an extra healthy snack when I was genuinely hungry. It was eating when I WASN'T hungry that caused me problems). But you've got to plan ahead or what's available to you won't be healthy foods, and then you're sunk!
Lots of people keep an "emergency snack drawer" at work for just this kind of thing.
Me too, I'm so hungry today! I'm wondering if it has something to do with the t.o.m.? (It's coming up for me, I think.)
I just had a salad for a snack. Lettuce and some (fairly) low-calorie dressing. I thought all the chewing would help my hunger. Nope, still hungry. Next I'll try a huge glass of water and hopefully it will fill me up.
It might be tempting, but you'll regret it in 20 minutes. I stash some sunflower seeds in my desk, and some ff cheese and veggies in the fridge at work. Never have to worry about anyone stealing my food - hehehe!
I have a whole drawer of healthy snacks, and some better than vending machine option slightly less healthy snacks as well. I work in a restaurant, so hitting them up for food means fries and onion rings.
Yeah I was feeling the same way at work today because I had to skip lunch!! I ended up nibbling on some pizza some of the other nurses brought in... talk about gilting me TO DEATH!!!! Don't fall to temptation! It only makes you feel like crap the minute it hits your stomach!
