Can you bring your own lunch from home? If you don't feel comfortable bringing it inside, leave it in your car (in like a cooler or something if needs to be refridgerated) and go somewhere and eat it during your lunch break. I'd stay away from the restaurant food. It's good every once in awhile, but having it all the time is not a good idea...especially since you don't know all that's going into it!

lol I would if I had a car, I walk to work

[curiouschica]

lol well you can still carry a brown paper bag...no? Hopefully nobody would steal it! How far do you have to walk? Do you have time to go back home for lunch? Or you could eat the fast food and run (not walk) to and from work to burn it off! lol j/k =)

Ha I work at Olive Garden...lol can you imagine how hard it is for me to resist the italian goodies, well my body and health is my priority but I mean as long as you don't make it your habit food, maybe like once or twice a week you could enjoy some chicken salad or that juicy burger, but supplement it with tons of workout afterwards! ;)

I was in this situation once. Bring something to eat rather than buying something. Don't eat at work! I always found myself eating free food here and there. Work-out fairly regularly. Even if it's at home for 5-10 minutes a day, it'll help a lot if you eat right.

If you have to eat always stay away from fried foods I know its obvious. Do a baked potato with butter no sour cream. Or you can do a side salad with out cheese and the protein. Grilled chicken with out the bun. Do Unsweetened tea no soda. If your going to do a hamburger I would go with the smallest. Order it without may and cheese, add mustard extra vegetables. All restaurants have a Nutritional information guide ask for one before ordering. I hope this helps you.

It's simple. Don't eat while you're at work or pack a lunch from home. I worked at Friendly's when I was 16 and I gained some weight that I'd been carrying on my thighs ever since. Now that I've been working out I can finally see my slim thighs again.

And if you do eat fast food at work, exercise. It's not rocket science.

only drink water. I know you probably get free drinks, but resist! Eat a lot of veggies or fruit. I know it smells good, but resist! Also, grill instead of fry your food. Wheat bread. That's really all I can tell you. Good luck!

order the smallest burgers, no cheese and no mayo

drink water

dont get value meals

the salads at fast food places can be unhealthy because of the dressings and add ons.

I would try to eat their salads more if you work fast food, that is healthier than a burger.

No. just cause you work there dosn't mean you have to eat there

[ALWAYSclassy]
