10 things that helped me lose 45lbs working a 9-5 desk job 1. Bringing my breakfast and lunch to work every day. Keeps me consistent. 2. I eat the same breakfast and lunch every day. I don’t have time to reinvent my diet every day lol. 3. 10k steps a day. Yes, even with a desk job. 4. My morning routine. The structure I have here sets the rest of my day up for success. 5. 3-3-5 prep method. Before each week, I prep 3 protein sources, 3 carbohydrate sources, and 5 fruits/vegetables. 6. Front load my mornings with protein so I’m not starving and reaching for a sweet treat by 10am. 7. Take quick walk breaks if I have time (rather than scrolling). 8. I plan my dinners for the week ahead of time so that I know what I’m having each night. 9. I ALWAYS take the stairs. Helps me get my step goal. 10. 25-30g of fiber daily. Keeps me fuller for longer.
