Eating food is an important component of social activity for many people and that can be tricky when you are following a specific nutrition plan, trying to lose weight or are on this challenge with me.
According to research, people doing their best to lose or maintain their weight are most likely to be derailed while eating in a social setting.
When eating in their cars, participants were 30% likely to lapse in their diets. At the office, 40%. Even just eating by themselves, 50%...but eating at a restaurant with friends, they were 60% likely to forget about their healthy intentions. Eating at a friend’s home was also determined to be "diet danger zone."
People tend to eat the same amount and make similar choices as people around them, so if friends and family aren’t dieting, or choosing supportive foods then it might be difficult to eat clean, lightly in their presence...and they might not want you to, either ~ Peer Pressure
❤️ WEEKEND TIPS
You feel like a party pooper picking at a salad. Women eat similarly when they're together, possibly as a way of relating to each other. So if your social events includes a friend who is chowing down, chances are you will too.
Here are some tips to stay on track this weekend!
❤️DIET BUDDY
Find someone that follows similar eating strategies or might be on a diet. Sit next to them. You'll consume less if you’re light eaters. Having just one fellow calorie-conscious person can really help you stay the course. You can share sides or salads to share in the experience.
❤️GET ONLINE
Most restaurants have websites where you can download menus, and many have nutrition and ingredient information too. So, if possible, do your homework and decide on your choices before you go.
❤️LEAD THE CHARGE: Be the first to order!
Order first… If you checked out the menu before you went, order your selection.
Make a healthy choice with protein, veggies and maybe a salad. You know what tips to use when eating out. This will help you avoid being swayed by someone's Fettuccine Alfredo calorie bomb.
🍷CUT YOURSELF OFF
Once your entrée arrives, switch to a nonalcoholic beverage. I love to order sparkling water with lime or soda water with lime. You don't need the extra calories to wash down your food.
Alcohol or dessert… don’t order both. Have yourself a cocktail to replace dessert. If you want a dessert, opt for a cheese plate.
What will you do to stay on track this weekend?
