Avoid Skipping Meals
by Nusrat Zeba
Too often, I hear many
of my friends say they skip meals because they either don’t like eating or they
just don’t have the time. If you are financially stable enough to put three
meals down on your table a day, you should not be skipping meals!
It is very unhealthy to
skip meals. You should NEVER skip any meals as skipping meals can lead to
certain diseases and physical illnesses such as obesity and gastric pain (only
a few out of many illnesses). How can you work if you’re not physically well?
Also keep in mind that the effects of the illnesses take time to actually show
up physically.
Here are a few ways to
avoid skipping meals and still get your work done on time:
1. Prepare your breakfast and other meals (if
possible) the night before you go to work. Sure you’re tired once you get home
but you need to keep yourself fed as well! Here’s an idea you can look into: http://mariamarlowe.com/2015/09/3-bring-to-work-lunches/
2. Eating actually does not take a lot of time. So,
it doesn’t hurt to fix your alarm ten to fifteen minutes earlier than you
usually wake up. Your nutritious breakfast will give you the energy you need in
order to get through the day. If you have even a few minutes of break to spare
during your eight hour or even twelve hour shift, you should always remember to
bring a box of food along with you so you could eat it during break. Always use
your time wisely!
3. Put any food in your stomach, even if you’re not
hungry. You’re in a rush? No problem! Quickly grab a granola bar, a glass of cocnut
milk, or even a fruit. Any food you see on the table? Take that and take it to
work! Not hungry? Drink water and if you are still hungry, You should still
eat.
Enjoy all your meals
everyday!
