This was my response to a question from another post asking for tips on how to beat snacking.  I think it's a great idea to share what we use in case of emergency when you need to have a HEALTHY snack when the candy bowl at work starts calling you nam


Here's what I have in my drawer at work right now:
25 calorie hot cocoa packets
Raw almonds
Soup-Individual servings from Healthy Choice
Chrystal Lite
Hot tea bags
Individual Peanut butter packets
flavored tuna in a foil pack
Individual packets of trail mix from Trader Joe's
Individually packed beef jerkey, (actually, I think it's turkey)
Non-dairy powdered creamer
Equal packets
Bare Naked granola, (to sprinkle on my Greek yogurt)
And soluable fiber, Ha!  Love the Benefiber!
Supreme Protein and Pure Protein bars

In our kitchen fridge at work:
String Cheese
NF plain Greek Yogurt
Canadian bacon rounds
hard boiled eggs

What's in your drawer?

 When I was teaching, I tried to bring cheese sticks to work. It was the easiest thing for me... but overall work was tough because they always had cakes from kids' birthday parties.

I'll bet you're the one every hungry coworker seeks out in their moments of desperation...

All I have in my locker at work is protein bars. I can't keep anything in the fridge because the Gestapo orders the fridge emptied at random. And at any rate, I can only eat so much on a typical 15-minute break.
