Drink Your H20<\/strong> Eat More Often<\/strong> Opt for Whole Grains<\/strong> If diet is half of the equation, exercise is the other half. When you’re ready to get serious about fitness, try a ‘do anywhere’ circuit workout from theworkoutgirl.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n xoxo, Workout Girl<\/p>\n
\nInstead of reaching for a snack out of boredom, drink some water. It’s good for you and can make you feel full until your craving subsides.<\/p>\n
\nInstead of eating 3 big meals per day, opt instead for 5 small meals. Eating larger meals with long periods in between can cause your blood sugar to spike and crash (and therefore lead to binging on afternoon cravings). Eating a small meal every 2-3 hours will help to keep your blood sugar more stable.<\/p>\n
\nAvoid eating sugary foods that can cause your blood sugar to crash. Opting instead for whole grain carbohydrates will help to regulate your blood sugar over a longer period of time.<\/p>\n
