how can you enjoy ur food and still maintain ur figure?

Question

I love eating home cooked meals but i love trying out new restaurants as well. i've been doing this for ages but in the past two years if i eat a bit extra almost all of it get stored in me. because of this i have become very conscious of my food, which is a very bad habit. i've also noticed that i've started to eat larger portions. any suggestions?
thank you!

Answer 1

Don't be conscious of what you're eating, but do be aware of when you are full. We often carry on eating even though we've had enough without realising, slow down and you'll soon know when you've had enough. If you must eat the rest of it, try to wait a while - a: to be sure you really want it and b: your body can start digesting the first lot. Also boil don't fry!

Answer 2

Enjoy a balance. The 80-20% rule is the best diet I have ever followed, bar none. And it's not even a diet. Simply say you will be good 80% of the time, meaning eat healthy, excercize and generally be good health wise. Then splurge and don't worry for 20%. Have that dinner out, skip a session at the gym. This way you won't break, because your still getting the things you love, your just being smart about the way you do it. It's all about moderation.

Answer 3

Eat whatever you want to eat - but for every course you eat do 20 minutes of cardio work to try and even it out. This is especially true with desert. The only meal I would not count in this is breakfast, as if you are lazy you don't want to skip this meal to avoid a workout.

Also try a trick my mum uses. When she dishes up her meal, if it dosent fit on a bread and butter plate (you know the little ones about the size of a slice of bread) then it is too much food, and you can only eat the ammount that fits on the plate. If you are hungry after that, then you can eat as much extra as you want, provided you do the exercise to match.

It worked for her, but not for me. So good luck - honestly.
