Answer 1

Eat more protein , less carbs and a little
sugar and caffiene will help.
You can take nuts, cheese sticks to work
and mostly eat that .Maybe peanutbutter and crackers.

Answer 2

Possibly don't eat heavy meals at lunchtime. Eat something light and maybe smaller portions. This may help. I know if I have a big lunch it makes me want to go to bed and like you really tired.

Answer 3

what are you eating?
sugary? - works for a short boost then you get tired
starchy? - same thing
eating fowl? (turkey,chicken) makes you tired

try to exercise before going into work and see if it makes a difference

try going to bed earlier at night and try to get a good nights sleep

it could be any number of things and you only notice it at that time of day

have you had your sugar checked?
most diabetics get sluggish after eating if their sugar is too high

either way you go - you should talk to your doctor

Answer 4

If you like music, start playing something rock or loud. That should keep you awake or you can hang out with your mates and talk, that usually works too.

Answer 5

you need to go out and take a slow walk or cut down on the portion.never just lay down after eating.keep yourself moving about.

Answer 6

you aren't consuming enough of the right foods or your meals are too high in calories. you should feel more energized after feeding not the opposite.

Answer 7

Eat light, avoid foods with tryptophan (chicken, turkey), calcium can make you sleepy, so avoid dairy as much as possible.

Answer 8

DRINK A CUP OF COFFEE WHEN YOU START FEELING THAT WAY. IT'S THE OFFICE ENVIRONMENT CONTRIBUTING TO YOUR BEING TIRED AND SLEEPY.
