Staying Healthy While Working From Home
Posted by Kate Johansson onGiven the current climate and the rise in Australians working from home (30% of us to be exact), it is no surprise that our eating habits have changed dramatically over the past few months. According to recent data from the Australian Heart Foundation, 1 in 3 individuals indicated that their diets had ’worsened’ as a means of eating due to stress, emotion or as the result of food unavailability.
If this all sounds too familiar and you are snacking a little too often, you are not alone. It’s important to remember that in times of uncertainty it is normal to turn to food for comfort measures or to fill a void. The main thing is that you don’t feel guilty for partaking in these behaviours and implement sustainable changes that help you feel in control around food again to keep you feeling your best.
To help you get back on track, we have collated our top dietitian approved tips to keep you feeling your absolute best while working from home. We promise there are no restrictive diets or cutting out your favourite foods.
