Indulge in Moderation
March 18, 2008 by Fitness Redefined
You are over at your parent’s house and you can smell the apple pie rising in the oven while you’re having a conversation with your mother. The salivary glands in your mouth starts producing saliva and your stomach starts growling. You just joined a fitness gym a week ago and promised yourself that you won’t consume those “empty calories”. Although avoiding all the comfort food that we have become familiar with is almost impossible to do in the long-run, we can still indulge in moderation.
If you deny yourself of that box of chocolate that is stashed all the way up on the top shelf of the cupboard, it will eventually find its way down with nothing in it! Instead of cutting out all the sweets and goodies from your diet try eating them in moderation. This will allow yourself from dipping your hands into the cookie jar all the time and help minimize your desire to consume these treats! By allowing yourself to indulge once in awhile helps prevent you from over indulging in one sitting which frankly is not healthy at all. So if you feel like eating some potato chips remember just to eat them in moderation!
