Feeling full yet tempted to keep eating? These expert-recommended strategies help you resist urges and finish meals mindfully.
Savor a mint
Pop a mint or sip mint tea. The refreshing flavor signals the end of your meal, making subsequent bites less appealing.
Get moving
Leave the table right after eating. Head to the living room to shift your focus away from food.
Opt for something sweet
Dessert often caps a meal. If sweets are your ritual, choose healthier options like fresh fruit more often.
Plan ahead
Having post-dinner plans discourages overeating. Exercise feels uncomfortable on a full stomach, and even a simple call with a friend keeps you distracted and on track.
