We have a rowing machine upstairs that we can use. THere's a field across the street and I bring my dog to work so I walk her at lunchtime. We don't ahve vending machines in our immediate area and, since I work at EatingWell, there's healthy food around most of the time for lunch, etc. THere's always a bowl of almonds at the front desk, sometimes fresh fruit too.

One of the healthiest things about my office is that no one brings in junk food! Not having a lot of food available is a big deterrent to mindless snacking. Another great thing is that my employer is constantly offering health incentives to employees; for example I've taken several workshops on things like Nordic walking and pilates. Every little bit helps!

Our workplace allows us to take over unused conference rooms at lunch room for exercise. I try do yoga the 4 days of the week I'm in the office. They also graciously allow us to dial in from home and with gas prices I've been working from home 1 day a week for years now.
I work for a marketing company and we are promoting the new Snapple Antioxidant Water, so we have tons of it at the office. Everyone has been drinking them instead of soda and coffee during the day. They have flavors like Tropical Mango and Dragofruit. Everyone has their own favorite!
