How to weekend proof your diet

  Did you know that in 2 days you can undo all the hard work you have done all week!!  Here are some easy ways to still let loose, but not gain back everything you worked so hard for!

• Friday night happy hour-stick with 1 drink.  If the bowl of goodies on the bar are calling your name, move them to somewhere else so you are not tempted to eat them.
• Saturday dinner-view the menu online and decide what you are going to order before heading to the restaurant or share an entrée with a friend, restaurant servings are usually 2-4 servings per plate!
• Sunday brunch-order an omelet with veggies and cheese.  It will feel indulgent and fill you up.  If you want pancakes order some for the table to share.
• Sunday night-if you really want that ice cream, put 1/2 cup in a bowl and then put the carton back in the freezer.  Try going to bed early,  a lot of people will eat when they are tired.

Use these tips this weekend to help you from derailing all your hard work from the week.  Here’s to a happy weekend!
