HOW TO STAY CLEAR OF TEMPTATION...

It can be very difficult to resist temptation but here are a few tricks to help you stay clear.
1. STAY AWAY FROM DRIVE-THRU'S- Drive Thru's are the templates of disaster. It's so easy to biggie size your fries or add a shake instead of a diet pop when you're eating on the go. It's convenient...you really might not be hungry but you're given a combo and you eat it just because...not a good thing
2. EAT MINI MEALS- By snacking throughout the day rather than eating 2 or 3 large meals you have more control over how much you are eating. You are not overeating because your blood sugar is low and you feel like you're starving. By eating small amounts regularly you are better able to listen your tummy and stop when full. Your body also uses the food more efficiently because it knows there is more coming soon.
3. WEIGHT YOURSELF REGULARLY- By weighing yourself it reminds you of where you are at. If you are up a few pounds then you know sooner than later to make some adjustments. Mainly psychosomatic but it's all good.
4. GET HAPPY- Poor food choices is often associated with mood. If you are happy and content you are more likely to keep things in check. If you are sad or emotional you may look to food for comfort and that's not a good thing.
By trying these four things you may just be able to steer clear of temptation and look to make better food choices for you. Give it a shot!
