It's OK To Eat Dessert At Your Christmas Party

‍

You can still follow a healthy lifestyle during the festive season AND have the dessert options! If you would like to know how, keep reading!

So how can you stop yourself from overeating at your Christmas party this year?

1. Make sure you eat and drink plenty of water across the day before the event, don’t hold out until later, this will set you up to eat with ravenous eyes (you know, the old eyes are too big for your stomach saying).

2. Fill your plate with a small amount of everything that looks good to you. Now here is the secret, it is really important to fill a plate that looks really good to you and remember that your plate doesn't have to be the end of the meal. Leave some space for dessert or seconds.

3. Go back for dessert! Or some more of whatever you enjoyed most of the main course. Even if you think you are full allow yourself a few more mouthfuls just to be sure you are satisfied.
