So now that the month of February is over, so is my
pescetarian diet. I could have definitely gone for longer, but I did miss
turkey sandwiches and my grilled chicken at times. Now what I really need to
cut out are sweets and alcohol.
- If you are craving anything sweet, try and keep dark chocolate in your house so that you can have one piece and be satisfied. Eventually you will slowly start to ween yourself off of that one piece of dark chocolate, and won’t crave it after a while. Dark chocolate is a powerful source of antioxidants and is super nutritious. It does not contain as much sugar as milk or white chocolate.
- Do not keep any chocolate or sweets in the house, since it will be easier to get to, BUT feel free to treat yourself once in a while.
- You can try and cut out sweets cold turkey, but if you are like me, that’s is straight up impossible.
I am not a huge drinker to begin with, but once in a while
after work I like to have a glass of wine, or if I go out for dinner I might
get a drink or two. On the weekends is probably when I binge drink the most,
only because during the week I am usually a sober sally. Also, my friends drink
and my boyfriend drinks, so sometimes I just can’t fight the temptation when
happy hour or brunch is thrown my way.
My boyfriend and I said we were going to stop drinking last
month, but that did not happen, so I think we may try it again in April. To be
honest, drinking is probably going to be easier to eliminate than sweets, but I
am going to try my best!
When I go out to dinner, I am not tempted to get a drink, so
I think I can definitely do it. I just have to keep telling myself that summer
is right around the corner, and by consuming alcohol and sweets, will not help
my summer bod come into play.
See what works best for you, or if you have tried this
before, feel free to let me know how your journey went, and how long you were
able to stick it out for!
