I know all the nice things! But if you can minimise these, you’re winning.
PREPARATION is key. Where possible don’t buy or allow crap into your environment. Make sure there is plenty of what you need available to hand
With main meals have plenty of meat and veg except those listed earlier.
Have a soup for starters (not creamy) and leave a good gap before your main course. Give your brain time to signal to the belly how full you are. Chew your food slowly and put down your knife and fork between bites. Again wait a while before desert. If you do you probably won’t have one.
Be aware of picking and finishing off other peoples meals.
Have a good breakfast as this will keep the blood sugars up and depress snacking.
Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated and help organs flush out toxins.
Eat before heading out to avoid picking.
If you are going to a party bring your own food if feasible.
Try get in as much exercise as possible before and or after meals.
Hope this helps.
As promised I’m back with your Festive food survival plan.
