How to Resist Halloween's Sugar and Carbs.
A delicious Phase One recipe
It's one of those holidays when sugar and carbs can cast an evil spell. Here are six ways to resist the temptation ghouls:
Tips:
Avoid Treats you Like: If you are filling a candy bowl to hand out for the trick or treaters, buy only candy you don’t like the taste of.
Eat protein: Before you host or go to your costume party or event, eating protein will satiate and make you much less tempted by the carbs and candy.
Hydrate: Not only is water filling but being properly hydrated helps you burn fat faster and reduces carb temptation.
Avoid Alcoholic “Spirits”: People and bartenders like to get very creative concocting specialty themed drinks that usually are loaded with sugar.
Make a Pinky-Promise to Yourself: Writing out your commitment to not deviate from your weight loss or maintenance program will help keep you on track.
Play It Safe: Give away, take to the office or trash any leftover Halloween treats.
