Eating low on carbohydrates at work
Bread is easy to take with you to work, but is not convenient to eat if you want to lose weight with a low-carbohydrate diet. Below you can read our best tips for low-carbohydrate food at work.

Prepare your food in advance
Prepare your low- carbohydrate lunch the night before, so that you do not have a time problem in the morning. In English they call that 'mealpreppen'. You can even prepare meal for several days, for example, by making lunch for lunch on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.

Lunch box with vegetables
Instead of taking your bread with you, you now fill your lunch box with vegetables, proteins and healthy fats. Actually exactly as you would eat at home. The only thing that differs is that you do not put your meal on a plate, but bring it in a container.

No idea what to do? Get your inspiration from the following options:

Steamed vegetables with fried chicken and unsalted cashew nuts
Green salad with smoked trout and cooked quinoa
Raw vegetables with chickpeas, with honey-mustard dressing made with quark
Kidney bean salad with celery, tuna and lemon juice
Omelet with smoked salmon, spinach and tomato

Rice waffles instead of bread
Rice waffles are lighter than bread and therefore contain far fewer carbohydrates. Replace two sandwiches with three rice cakes and fill them liberally with low-carb spreads, such as:

Hüttenkäse
Egg
Avocado
Chicken breast
Smoked salmon
Hummus
Sugar-free nut paste
Wrap your rice cakes in a container or bag and store the siege separately. This will prevent your rice cakes from becoming soft or wet.

If you need more carbohydrates, you can increase the portions as desired. In this article you can read how many carbohydrates you can eat per day .

The cabbage wrap is the new sandwich
Cabbage wraps are a low-carbohydrate replacement of the sandwich. Very suitable for those who enjoy the ease with which you eat a sandwich: you can simply eat them with your hands. Fill your cabbage wrap with smoked salmon, avocado and cottage cheese, or how about smoked chicken, courgettes and pesto?

Use good quality lunch drums
Leaking trays are your biggest enemy if you want to eat low on carbohydrates outdoors. There is nothing worse than a bag full of pickles, not to mention damaged equipment that is also present in your bag. Therefore, purchase containers of good quality that are 100% airtight. Give yourself good material. It is an investment in your health and your body.

Leftovers from the previous day
Do you have leftovers from your evening meal? You can take this with you to your work! Add some fresh vegetables, lettuce or a hard-boiled egg and you have a low-carbohydrate lunch.

Do not forget your cutlery
You're going to happen once: you've made a delicious salad and wrapped it in your nicest airtight drum, but once at work you find out that you can not eat your salad with your hands. You're still in 'bread mode'! Now you can often conjure a fork from somewhere, but it's a lot easier if you just think about it yourself. Put your cutlery in your bag the night before.

Take pepper and salt
A boiled egg is delicious as a snack, but a bland bite without pepper and salt. Your lunch salad is also extra tasty with some seasonings, especially if you do not use a greasy dressing. Buy a small can of pepper and salt and take it with you in your bag. There are even pepper and salt key chains!

Say no to cake
It is also important to say no, for yourself. Is there someone's birthday or is there just a box of biscuits in the kitchen at work? Ignore it. You have a mission: you want to lose weight and a healthy body. The only thing that free cake and cake gives you are free extra kilos. Choose a healthy snack, like this one below!

Low-carbohydrate snacks for your work
Do not just prepare your lunch, but also your snacks between meals. Stop two healthy low-carbohydrate snacks every day in your bag. Choose:

Boiled egg with pepper and salt
Half avocado with pepper and salt
150 grams of Greek yogurt with cinnamon
3 gherkins rolled in a slice of smoked meat
3 chicken fillet rolls filled with Hüttenkäse
20 grams of unsalted nuts
Slices of cucumber with hummus
Strips of red pepper with hummus
Radishes
Cherry tomatoes
