If your schedule is already jam-packed, it can be hard to prioritize self-care. But, what is something you could add to your day that wouldn't feel like one more thing you have to pencil in? It could be something as simple as eating your lunch outside instead of at your desk (because you gotta eat anyway!) or making that coffee date a walking coffee date. #SelfReflection #envisionwellness

You’re sitting at your desk, scrolling your phone, eating whatever’s convenient. STOP. Your lunch break isn’t downtime—it’s your secret weapon. A 10-minute walk burns calories, clears your head, and gets you away from your screen. Pair it with a high-protein meal, and now you’ve created a fat-burning window in your day. These small, intentional actions build momentum. Over weeks and months, they compound into massive results. The question isn’t 'Do you have time?'—it’s 'Do you want results?' If you’re serious about transforming your lunch break, DM me. I’ll help you turn 30 minutes into the most productive part of your day. #LunchBreakHacks #WeightLossForProfessionals

You deserve a lunch break When we are working we tend to eat our lunch at our desk. Why would you do that? And who decides you don’t get your lunch break? You. We work hard enough, don’t we? You’re entitled to have your lunch break. Although you feel the pressure to shove the food in your mouth while working, it compromise your health. During my work for a company I recall having lunch meetings so now and then. With our laptop open, we talked about work instead of paying attention to our food. Now I cannot help thinking of it being a “victim of a crime”. To put it this way: I was robbed from my free time even if I didn’t see it that way back then. And hey if you’re still urged to have these lunch meetings, why would you not make it a fun one? Gather together, eat peacefully and if you’d want to, talk about the food you have. Share your food, preferably what you’ve prepared at home, talk about the taste, make it a game, who can guess all the ingredients in their food. Talk about the health part. Pay attention to the way you eat. And very important, keep the media devices out of the room. #lunch #liveyourbestlife #stressrelief #worklifebalance

Do you snack during work? 🫐☕💧 My go-to essentials: coffee (although caffine has no noticeable effect on me), water and blueberries. I know some of us go for healthy options, others for something indulgent (I do enjoy crisps), and some avoid snacking altogether. What about you? What’s your favorite snack to keep you energized and focused while working? Or are you team “no snacks at the desk”? Let me know your snack picks (or lack thereof!) Ps. Yes, you would have seen some desk snacks in the past - love them! #WorkdaySnacks #HealthyHabits #NoneAppologetic

Today is National Sandwich Day! 🥪 It’s funny - there’s a day for absolutely everything now! But today actually serves as the perfect excuse to ask my favourite 'small talk' question - what’s on the lunch menu? 🥙 On a more serious note, it's also a good time to bring up something important; the disappearing lunch break! I came across a survey recently that found: - Nearly half of us skip lunch at least once a week - 62% struggle to use their blocked-off lunch break to have a meal - Gen Z are the most likely to skip their lunch Even with more flexibility from homeworking, many of us are working through breaks or missing lunch. We might feel like we’re gaining time, but research shows it’s counterproductive. Taking even a short break to refuel can boost focus, productivity, and creativity for the rest of the day. So here’s a gentle reminder - 📅 Block off lunch on your calendar and try to treat it like any other meeting ⏰ Set a timer to step away from your desk, even if it’s just for 15 minutes 🍱 Plan & prep your lunch the night before to make it easier to enjoy a quick, nutritious break And of course I have to ask, what's for lunch today? 😀 #NationalSandwichDay #Producitivity

HOW OFTEN DO YOU DO THIS? 🤔 You are at work and the day has been super busy, Meetings, deadlines, training, team catch ups, coffees… 💻 You are already stressed and chasing your tail. The last thing on your mind is the nutritional value of your lunch… YOUR HUNGRY!!! 😳 Maybe even a little bit HANGRY. So you need to get something quick. It’s been HOURS since you last ate, ⌛ So you grab the easiest most processed thing you can find. Ignoring the fact that it is terrible for your health and your afternoon ENERGY levels. And most definitely NOT good for your waistline…❌ You just need to get something before your stomach embarrassingly rumbles during your next zoom meeting. 💻 So you chomp it down, To quickly make it back to the office on time for your next thing in your calendar. Can’t keep the team or clients waiting!! 👨 Before you know it, You get home, Dinners not ready yet, 🍗 So to the pantry for a PRE dinner snack it is. Chips, chocolate, biscuits whatever is there. 🍫 Sit down and finally stop for the day… Now you COULD prep your lunch for tomorrow, Or you COULD do it after dinner, Or you COULD get up 10 minutes earlier and prep it, But you choose literally anything else. 🤔 And that there could be the DIFFERENCE of you losing or gaining weight. 10 minutes. If this story resonates with you, Maybe it’s time to start making some changes. ✅ BECOME ELITE! #lunch #prep #story #difference
