If you snack every three to four hours, your energy levels will stay high and you'll be less likely to binge later. For example, buy a one-ounce package of potato chips or a couple of individually wrapped pieces of candy. One doughnut or a cup of hot chocolate is another way to binge-carefully. When you open the fridge in search of a snack, the bowl of fruit or dish of sliced carrots and celery will be the first thing you see. Another of life's ironies is that eating out can be so much fun, and maybe even a necessity, but it can also be a real pitfall to your health.
Most restaurants serve huge portions, rich sauces, high-fat cooking methods.
Or maybe you just want to get out to a restaurant to relax or to celebrate. Again a little planning is the key to good healthy eating. Choose a restaurant that serves a variety of foods and is willing to accommodate special requests. If you plan to splurge, eat lighter at your other meals that day or the next. Fit some physical activity in as well.
