Enjoy Off Plan Food Too

Many of you asked about "cheat meals" from last weeks theme of stable blood sugar. I never like the word "cheat" makes it sound like you are doing something wrong.... I like calling our little treats or unbalanced meals "off plan". On Dr. Oz I shared how to simply have 3 oz of protein before some chocolate cake, cookies, ice cream, etc.. This helps slow down the blood sugar spike and helps minimize those "treats" from storing fat. You can see that clip on www.venicenutrition.com/media. And if you want to have a full "off plan" meal, read pages 124-126 in Body Confidence, gives you 4 steps to really master your "off plan" experience. The reality is this, food tastes great and if I'm eating 42 meals a week (6 per day) 1 off plan meal that week is so minor.... We all fall off plan, your true success is how quickly you get back on plan. Lets all keep making our health happen and please share your favorite off plan meals on this post, mine is Pizza! Tomorrow I'm posting about the power of antioxidants, so stay tuned!
