Make Homework Snacking a Healthy Ocassion

Last week someone messaged me on facebook asking for my advice on how to avoid snacking while doing homework. Honestly this is a problem for me as well. Most of the time this is considered bored eating but sometimes you really are hungry and should eat a snack. Either way, your snack choice should be a healthy one.

Here are some healthy homework snack suggestions:

• Carrots and hummus
• Celery
• Cucumbers
• 1 serving of skinny pop
• 1 serving of almonds or pistachios
• 1 gala apple (sliced)

So to keep these options extra healthy, make sure you only eat the suggested serving size and snack slowly. If you feel that you are not actually hungry, and you are instead just eating out of boredom, try drinking some water or a cup of tea or coffee, so you're still consuming something, but you are putting in little to no calories, it's a mind game!

Snacking can be a good thing, but not when it is considered overeating, so remember to snack healthy and watch your serving sizes!
