How to Avoid Temptation When Dieting
“Yummy black forest cake! Biting into one of them won’t really affect me much.” Is this something you have been telling yourself lately? Well then, we understand the ongoing temptation in you. Even the last choice on your menu seems tastier when on diet, isn’t it? Here are a few steps to help you control those temptations, especially when dieting.
1. Sharing is caring
Share the goodies with people around you. This helps to avoid adding the innumerable calories to your body.
2. Party preferences
Parties are dieters’ weakest areas. While the crowd is munching your favorite delicacies, sticking on to your diet might be really difficult. Instead, plan your party meal. Start with the food type that is tasty and yet low on calories. Salads and soups are your saviours. Plan your main course with a combination of low calories. Skip the cream topping on fruit salads. Avoid soft drinks and take fresh fruit juices instead.
3. Coffee, snacks and gossip
This is for those at the workplace where break time discussions or gossip are often complimented with coffee and snacks. Instead carry a box of cut fruits, salads or sprouts from home. Keep the sugar levels to minimum. Over and above, have coffee or tea only when you really need it. Discussions can still be hot without a coffee, right?
