When you begin a new job, you need to adapt to new rules, a new boss, a new environment and new co-workers. Drastic changes can lead dieters to high-calorie foods as a source of comfort. Candy, cookies and other junk foods are quick and accessible, but theyre also full of empty calories.
Come up with comfort food alternatives and make sure to have them on hand (i. e. , calorie bargains). A little preparation can keep both psychological triggers and biological responses to stress under control and prevent comfort food binges from ruining your weight-loss efforts.
