Back away from the Halloween candy

1 November, 2010

Most offices will have bowls of leftover Halloween candy lingering around today.

We’re all trying to get the temptation out of our houses, only to have it thrown in our faces at work.

A dietician from Loyola University Health System has some tips on how to fight the urge. Dietician Brooke Schantz said that eating all that candy can lead to fatigue after the initial sugar rush wears off.

Here are her tips:

1. This probably won’t happen, but make pacts with your co-workers to leave the candy at home.

2. Eat breakfast so you don’t come to work hungry

3. Bring in healthy snacks – low-fat cheese, carrot sticks, cucumber slices

4. Can’t resist? Limit yourself to a small, bite-sized piece.

5. Put candy out of site so you’re not tempted by it all day. The more visible it is, the more you’ll eat.
