Today I am working on my dissertation all day. I only have 4 weeks left. It's the final hurdle but still such a struggle to concentrate on one topic for so long.
When I'm essay writing I get the munchies. I'm not sure if it's a form of procrastination or if I'm genuinely hungry.
I love keeping fit and healthy but my diet has lacked A LOT since I've been working on my university work from home. I am a major chocoholic.
I can easily make my way through 5 chocolate bars in one day - but I can admit it doesn't make me feel too great and it's not very good for my brain either!
I decided I need to put an end to my bad snacking habits. I can notice a difference in my fitness ability when I have been eating badly, in this last month my trips to the gym have been a lot harder work and I feel far less energetic than I do when I'm not eating one million biscuits a day.
My solution was to chop up lots of yummy fruit at the beginning of the day and that can be my snack box! It has worked a treat! (treat, get it!?). I've also got a big bottle of water to keep my brain refreshed, instead of sugary drinks such as Lucozade and Red Bull that we often think will help us stay "focused'.
I really recommend this method of preparing your snacks and food at the beginning of the day. Remember to keep your diet balanced and natural.

I feel much better already so let's see if I can keep it up this week, it might even help me to get a first in my degree!
