One of the main components to a healthy & fit lifestyle is healthy eating habits. Many health professionals label this as a ‘nutritional program’ but let’s face it, as a busy professional woman you don’t need or have the time for another program in your life. What you need are habits that will give you more energy, make you feel & look better and will keep you on track towards your goals.

• Plan – do you plan your business appointments and tasks for the week? Are you more effective than if taking the hit & miss approach? Get into the habit of planning your meals a week at a time. Sunday is a great time to prepare for the upcoming week.
• Homemade Meals – get into the habit of bringing home prepared meals to work with you. I know it is not always possible with the professional schedule but it gives you control of the amount & quality of calories you are consuming.
• Meal Travel Kit – use a portable mini cooler bag to store your meals & snacks in. Keep this kit in the trunk of the car or in your office so you can access it at anytime.
• Schedule – schedule your meals for the entire day and set alarm reminders. It is easy to get caught up in the tasks you are working on. Many of my clients will set reminders in their planners or cell phones to remind them to eat, snack or drink water.
• Water – get into the habit of carrying a bottle of water with you, having one on your desk, in your car. The typical female professional operates in a dehydrated state.

Treat your eating habits as you would your career, hold yourself accountable and look for solutions to problems. By taking a pro-active approach you will feel better and be more productive thus benefiting your work and career.
