• If you don’t have time to grab breakfast before leaving for work then at least carry something like a sandwich or milk and cornflakes that you can quickly have after reaching office but don’t ever start skipping the most important meal of the day. If you don't have cornflakes at home, buy Kellogg's Corn Flakes here at a discounted price of Rs 310.
• Try to adhere to the meal timings so that you can work up your appetite for the next meal. Eating on time ensures that the digestive juices and enzymes are released in your body accordingly and there is less scope of indigestion. It also means that you sleep well and feel rested.
• Remember, everything that you are doing is to nourish your body and to keep it healthy is your first and foremost task. Everything else can wait.
• Whether you get caught up in a meeting or guests come over, don’t make it an excuse to skip meals. Don’t let your hunger pangs go out of control and carry makhanas (or any healthy snacks) with you, otherwise, you will end up binging on something unhealthy.
