Every body likes parties especially during festive season. The sight of irresistible food makes one overeat like there is no tomorrow. How to avoid overeating during such events and avoid the extra pounds. But you could follow some simple rules to combat those ravenous cravings to some extent!
Be honest with yourself
Prior to the festive day, flip through fashion magazines and television channels where you won’t spot a single out of shape woman – and also watch how your man is ogling at them! But can you honestly blame him? These magazines will only work as a motivator, but you have to stay focused on your fitness goals. Choose a dress that fits you well and makes you look super sexy! Let this be an incentive to make you more conscious of your body and work towards getting that hourglass figure.
Eat before heading to the party
Consume a small, healthy and nutritious meal before heading to the party. During the party, make sure you consume plenty of water. This will kill your evil appetite and make you eat less.
Sample only selected stuff
There is nothing that you cannot eat after the festive season ends, so take your pick smartly. When you pick up a big pie, first think of how that will make you feel after you are done savouring it. If the stress is worth it, go ahead. But if you know it will make you feel miserable, give it amiss. So listen to your body before and after you plan to pounce on a treat.
Enjoy the company more than the food
Meet new and interesting set of people, ones who can keep you engrossed in a mental affair. An interesting company doesn’t make you long for food. Let your hair down and groove to the music. Not only will that help you lose some excess calories, it will lift your spirits and stop you from thinking about food!
Go for low cal snacks
If you are planning to throw a party at home, look up the web or cook books for low calorie recipes and save yourself and your guests some flab. Wheat preparations usually require lot of oils and become rich as a result. Opt for rice preparations as they are hardly ever fried.
