5 Figure friendly party tips
An upcoming party or wedding can cause the end of your diet or exercise plan – it can ruin it completely. With all the high fat and sugar party and wedding food, it makes it feel almost impossible to eat right. Luckily for you, I have some good news, there are things that you can do to ensure that you have your cake and eat it too. With other words, here are 5 smart party eating tips when on a diet.
1. Substitute smartly
Make smart substitutions like the following:
Choose mini meatballs over biscuits with cream cheese and sweet chili sauce
The meatball choice is much lower in fat than the sweet chili biscuits. But as they are still high in fat, don’t have more than 4 of them.
Choose peanuts over samoosas
The samoosas are high in saturated fats where the peanuts are high in the good fat.
Choose chicken kebabs over sticky chicken wings
Sticky chicken wings are nothing than skin and dark meat – making it very high in fat, where the chicken kebabs are skinless, making them very low in fat.
Choose sparkling wine/wine spritzer over cocktail of strawberry daiquiri
Not only are cocktails very high in alcohol, but it is also very high in calories and sugar – making it a bad choice. Rather chose sparkling wine or a wine spritzer.
Choose fruit salad over ice cream
Always go for the fruit salad over any other desert.
2. Eat something before going to the party
This little trick will make sure that you are full enough to not overeat. Good choices include salad, a bowl of soup or a whole-wheat sandwich.
3 Watch your alcohol intake
Alcohol can make you snack ore and thus consuming much more calories. So stick to no more than 3 units of alcohol.
4. Don’t mingle around the food tables
Having a chat around the food tables can make you eat more without even noticing it. So rather socialize somewhere else.
5. Say no to seconds
Politely decline when the host offers you another helping of chocolate cake.
For when you indulged in the party food
Don’t stress if you had your cake and ate it too, just counter the extra calories by exercising and by eating fat burning foods – for a list of fat burning foods, click the link. The best exercise machine to burn off calories with is the Carl Lewis motorised treadmill.
These tips are sure to be just what you need to survive your next wedding or party. Another thing that can help you is to include a cheat day where you can eat what you will, as long as you have eaten 100% correct on the other days. But when you did ate more than you should, you can counter it with extra cardio.
