Cheating On Your Diet? How Do You Deal With Carb Overload?

Link to Video

Sunday we went to the Chiefs game in KC and I ate some chips and dip and had some diet soda... I don't get upset with myself for enjoying life sometimes but there are annoying side affects to cheating!!!

Today is Friday and it has taken me all week to feel satisfied again!!!  Eating carbs can make you crave more carbs.  So when you are dieting or trying to eat clean be careful that you plan ahead for the cravings!!!

In order to help myself I packed extra vegetables every day for lunch, I brought some meat for lunch (I usually only eat veggies for lunch) and I practiced my survival skills outlined in this post: Overcoming Cravings - Survival Tips. Drinking a lot of water is soooooo important and vital to overcoming the cravings!!!!!

I feel great today and do not plan to "cheat" or have a fun day until Thanksgiving!!!  Although, I will have to do this all over again!!!  Sometimes eating fun just outweighs the risk of having a hard week.

Bottom Line:  Plan for the few days after carb overload!!!! This will help you to continue in your weight loss or health success!!!
Have a great weekend...
Love ya,
