The Sabotage: Working too much overtime

Working 40+ hours per week has been directly linked to bigger waistlines. Stress and fatigue make you less likely to exercise and more likely to crave greasy or sugary foods. Not to mention having less time outside of work means you're probably hitting more fast food joints instead of cooking and skipping the gym. If you must stay late make a point to take a few mini-breaks to boost your mood and energy level. Get a few good laughs in with a coworker, listen to your latest favorite song, or do some stretches or strength moves at your desk.
