Here are some best strategies for beating five common wight loss saboteurs.
A Fancy Dinner Out – The trick is to boost protein and volumize. Have a high protein snack mid-afternoon (such as fresh fruit or almonds) to take the edge off your hunger. The order a bowl of broth based soup or a green salad before the meal.
Over-Scheduled Day – Keep a journal and have handy meal replacements. The night before, plan out your day. Take a protein bar and apple with you in case plans change or you’re starving wth no time to buy lunch.
Evening Munchies – Cut Carbs, Volumize, and Boost Protein. Skip refined carbs in favor of whole grains, such as whole wheat crackers. Bulk up your lunch with extra veggies (baby carrots , grape tomatoes) and protein (lean ham, sunflower seeds, or chopped eggs.)
Party Buffet – Boost Protein and Volumize. Fill at least three quarters of your plate with low calorie buffet standbys that are rich in fiber, water, or low fat protein, such as shrimp cocktail, vegetables, lean meats and fruits.
Late-Night Cravings. Keep A Journal and Volumize. Jot down what you eat every trip to the kitchen. If you must munch while watching TV, choose low-cal foods you can eat more of, like air-popped popcorn or a plate of cut-up veggies.
I can relate with many of these traps. I often get late night munchies. Now I now that there are many food choices that I can pick and not feel guilty about.
So good luck to healthy eating
