Achieve Weight Loss at Easter
There is no reason why you can't enjoy chocolate at Easter, or any other time of the year, when you are trying to lose weight.
The trick is to give your taste buds a sweet treat and follow a few simple guidelines to ensure that you don't completely sabotage your weight-loss efforts.
It is important that you choose the choice of chocolate wisely. On average a bar of dark chocolate contains 50 - 60 calories less than a bar of milk chocolate. As well as being higher in antioxidants, the more intense flavour should satisfy your taste buds more easily, meaning you won't have to eat as much.
It can also be a good idea to ask for an Easter egg that's filled with jelly babies rather than more chocolate, for example. Indeed, such offerings are virtually fat free and lower in calories
Beware of constantly nibbling at chocolate eggs, you'll find it's all too easy to polish off the whole bag! Instead, only take a few eggs and place the rest of the bag out-of-reach.
Or better still, why not share the rest around with your family and friends?
If even just a whiff of chocolate is enough to start you chomping then why not come up with other ways of enjoying Easter without turning to chocolate?
You can join in an Easter egg hunt and get more active. Not only will you burn calories when you hide the eggs for the kids, but you can also burn even more if you participate in the hunt itself.
So get out there and have some fun.
It can also prove more satisfying when you have everyone involved; therefore, try doing something fun with the whole family.
Why not try making Easter bonnets or decorating hard boiled eggs?
Not only are such activities a great way to have fun, but they can also help to distract you from chocolate.
Of course, Easter does not always prove the easiest time to watch your waistline, however it is possible to enjoy the holiday without going completely off track.
Take the time to learn how to lose weight by reducing temptation for the many chocolate delights that Easter can bring.
