Life needs to be in balance on all levels. When balance is lost problems can begin. If left uncared for they fester. Food has a large impact on our body chemistry. The new business culture has people working from home for longer hours and more days. Snacking can become an enemy if not kept in check. Size matters when snacking. Prep healthy snacks so the temptation to eat an entire bag of chips, box of chocolate chip cookies, or entire jar of peanut butter is removed. Food should not be used to relieve boredom. Food is not a substitute for a best friend. Pay attention when eating. If you have found yourself out of control you need help. Binge eating can be a signal something more serious is going on.
