I know it's the holidays and there is a lot of good food around. BUT, you don't want to ruin that sexy figure you have been working on all year, do you? Here's some tips to use that will help you fight off those cravings.
- CHUG WATER - Feeling the urge to snack when you've recently eaten can be a sign you are dehydrated. Drink a glass of cold water and see if the cravings disappear.
- BRUSH YOUR TEETH - There is just something about having a clean minty mouth that makes you want to keep it that way. Plus it sends a message to your brain that you are finished eating for a while.
- GO FOR A WALK - A few minutes of exercise in addition to a change of scenery can help take your mind off eating.
- USE YOUR CELL - Make a phone call to someone who likes to chat and can keep you occupied until the munchies pass. Which, according to nutritionists last only 5 minutes or so.
I think you get the idea. Distract yourself. Trick your brain. Satisfy a thirst. And if you do overeat a little, after all it is the holidays. Don't worry I'll be coming up with some tips to get you back into shape in no time.
