How to Eat Healthy Without Surrendering Your Social Life

Managing food choices at social get-togethers with your health goals can be challenging? But with few simple tips and tricks you can easily manage your weight by eating healthy without surrendering your social life

1. Don’t go out feeling hungry

If you’re going out for drinks or dinner with your friends, then have a healthy snack beforehand so you don’t arrive ready to eat the whole menu. You can have a boiled egg , a brown bread sandwich , cold cuts etc and this way you won’t overeat.

2. Practice saying No

Practice saying No in all the ways in which somebody might tempt you to fall off the wagon. Say “No, thank you!” politely to each one. Lookout yourself in the mirror and be assured that you will smile confidently each time.

 

3. Emphasis on appetizers

Go out, order a few glasses of wine and share  appetizer plates with your friends. Stay more vegetable-focused and go on  non -fried appetizers.

4. Dinner Parties

Instead of going out, stay at home and invite your friends for dinner. Cook a meal for them and few dishes with less oil for yourself. Also prefer going for lunch or early evening parties.

5. Avoid Alcohol

Avoid too much alcohol and rather for  fresh lime water or soda, or drinks made with fresh fruits and without sugar.

6. Look for something healthy

Look for something on the menu with a little bit of all things that you’re serving your body to function well. Look for the trifecta of fat, fiber, and protein in your meals and your snacks to make sure that you stay satisfied.

7. Ignore the feeling of failure and move on

If you miss exercise or eat something that you don’t normally have, just accept it and move on. Feeling wrong or thrashing you up only strengthens distress and feelings of failure. It was your choice to be healthy and you are doing everything you can to stay that way but you are human and destined to give in to temptation on occasion. Don’t let that inverse everything you has by now accomplished.

8. Bring a raw dessert

For desserts prefer fresh fruits rather than butter and sugar loaded ones. You can even go for dark chocolate.
