Watch Out For Evening Temptations
It gets tough to make it through evenings without snacking. You’re watching TV and it’s constantly tempting us with commercials for food. I think you get more aware of those when you’re dieting. But remember, we’re not really “dieting” we’re changing our eating habits. If you give in and go for high calorie low value foods in the evening you’re on a slippery slope. Go for some veggies if you really must eat something, but don’t just bring a tub of the ones you’ve cut up earlier. Measure out how many you eat. That way you’re not mindlessly putting it in your mouth.
Remember you may not actually be hungry. The brain can confuse thirst with hunger. Try a glass of water first. If you can avoid eating anything and suppress the cravings, you will have achieved a small victory. After all if you can push through and not eat anything, you’ll be going to bed soon anyway. You’re never hungry when you sleep. I know when I do that, I actually feel slimmer in the morning. Even if it’s only a little bit.
