How to beat the afternoon lull

I used to get like that right around 2. Stopped eating super carb heavy lunches and haven’t had any issues since. I used to eat a Mexican quinoa bowl a lot that had ground Turkey, black beans, quinoa, and avocado in it and would almost always get sleepy. Started bringing salads and no issues.

Change what you eat for lunch definitely helps

I also think how you schedule your day from a tasks standpoint is important. I love having relational calls or things I can do while on a walk after lunch. Doing that, stretching my legs, getting outside and getting some fresh air / sun is order of magnitude better than if I finish up a meal and then try to dive into an Excel model. I’ll be face down in my keyboard if I do that

I usually go to the bathroom to rub one out then I climb under my desk and take a 20 minute nap. When I wake up I do a bump a coke and that gets me through the remainder of the day.

Stand up

You are eating too much carbs and sugars.

Get 7-8 hours of sleep a night.

Nothing tastes as good as being skinny feels

I take a power nap at my desk. But I realize not everyone can do that.

Like others said, it’s most likely what you’re eating.
