How to Avoid Weight Gain While Working at Home by Rachel Greenberg

we could all stand to make some healthier selections. Buy apples

instead of chips, or protein bars instead of candy bars. Just one

substitute here and there can make a difference.

3. Get moving.

You knew it was coming, and here it is – that dreaded word:

exercise. I’m not saying you have to do two hours of calisthenics

a day, but you do need to get up out of that chair and do something.

Go for a walk, do some light housework, it doesn’t matter. Just

do something besides sitting.

4. Use break-time wisely.

Wait a minute – doesn’t taking a break mean eating a snack?

NO! You need to fill your break time with other things that you

enjoy. Like reading, or knitting, or talking on the phone (my

favorite!). Maybe even combine this with option #3 (get moving), and

then you’ll be doing well.

5. Make some trade-offs.

Okay, so you had a few too many snacks one day. You’ll do better

the next day. Or you’ll do some extra exercise to make up for it.

If you have that snack, make a commitment to walk, instead of drive,

on your next errand.

As with many things in life, it’s all about moderation. The

benefits of working at home far outweigh (pun intended!) the

negative aspects. And if you can follow the steps above to fight the

bulge, then you will make the work-at-home experience that much more

enjoyable.
