5 Reasons You Should Start Packing Lunch

Please Share!
*This is a sponsored guest post

One of the most common dilemmas of people working in the office is deciding what to eat for lunch. It happens every single day. And the usual ending is a fast food meal or junk food, which needless to say is very unhealthy. So how about bringing a lunch in containers? 

5 Reasons You Should Start Packing Lunch

 

Here are some reasons why you should consider packing lunch for office, at least, three times a week or maybe every day: 

Reason 1: Healthier options 

Eating junk foods and fast food meals is totally and undeniably unhealthy. And imagine doing this almost every day? Now you know why you’re getting fatter and bigger. When you bring pack lunch at work, you will be able to eat healthier meals. You can research about healthier menus and prepare it on your own. With that, you don’t have to worry about calorie content since you can adjust it accordingly.

Reason 2: Cheaper 

Well, another advantage of preparing pack lunch is that you can save a lot from your budget. Buying food outside can be very expensive. If you wish to eat decent meals then you need to spare some budget for it. You know those restaurants have sky-high prices and service charges. But if you do your own grocery and you prepare your food yourself then you can eat decent meals in cheaper price.

Reason 3: Portion control 

For people who are trying to lose weight or diet, the portion of their food is very vital. But you will be able to easily control that when you prepare your own meals. It is something that you cannot do when you are buying food from outside. You will either be forced to eat the entire serving or put it to waste – well both options are very off. However, when you are bringing your own lunch, you can measure the portion very well without wasting any resources.

Reason 4: Variety 

Bringing a packed lunch gives you the opportunity to try out new menus. There are lots of easy cooking tutorials online with very delicious and fast recipes that you can follow. You can experiment and taste new things every day. This will excite you to bring it to the office. It is also fun to learn to cook new recipes. And let’s admit it, working in the same workplace for more than a year gives you a limited option of places to eat. You tend to go to the same place and eat the same thing over and over that you get tired of it already.

Reason 5: Warm feeling of home 

Another reason why you should bring pack lunch at work is the feeling that you get while eating food prepared at home. Food prepared with love can give warmth and energy in your body and soul.

It is time to stop the dilemma of thinking where and what to eat during your lunch break in the office. Pick up some handy and durable decor containers at Harris Scarfe, and start packing lunch for work. With this, you will have one less thing to worry about in the office.

    I work from home but I definitely eat better when I have a lunch planned or pre-made for the day instead of allowing myself to get extremely hungry before making a decision.

    I have packed my lunch for years because I find it healthier and like to control calories and portions. It certainly does save money too.

    I might eat out for lunch 3 times a month, rest of the time, I’ve got a lot of frozen meals I buy for cheap whenever on clearance and with coupon.
