12 manières de ne pas manger le soir.1 photos

1. Abuse your stomach with liquids. Drink a glass of mineral water with a slice of lemon, some tomato juice, or a cup of green tea. Liquids will fill your empty stomach and reduce your hunger.

2>Take a hot bath. It reduces appetite and helps you relax. Increased sweating will also help your body eliminate excess fluid.

3>If you feel your hunger becoming unbearable, do some light exercise. Physical activity will distract you from the urge to eat and burn some extra calories. However, don’t overexert yourself, as it might make it difficult for you to fall asleep later.

4>Aromatherapy can help suppress your appetite. Whenever you feel the urge to eat unexpectedly, smell the peel of a grapefruit, light some aromatic candles, or bring a bottle of essential oil or perfume near your nose. Flower and fruit scents are particularly effective. Since the areas responsible for hunger and smell are located close to each other, these fragrances can help temporarily suppress your hunger.

5>Right after dinner, treat yourself to a light dessert such as fruits, low-fat yogurt, or a small piece of dark chocolate. This will boost your mood, and the aftertaste will help control your appetite later on.

6>When eating dinner, never add spices or herbs to your dishes, as they can increase your appetite and intensify your hunger sensations, even after you have started eating.

7>Never keep high-calorie foods in easily accessible places. Place fruits and vegetables in more visible areas of your home so that if you do crave something tasty, you’ll opt for healthier options instead.

8>Take a walk before going to bed. This will help distract you from thoughts about food, but fresh air might also increase your appetite. So choose a time for your walk after dinner when you’re less likely to feel hungry.

9>Chew on some gum without sugar or fruit flavor. The act of chewing and the sweet taste in your mouth will help deceive your appetite.

10>Brush your teeth. This triggers an instinctive reaction: after brushing, we usually don’t eat.

11>Visually imagine yourself as a beautiful, slender, and attractive woman. Would such a woman overeat before going to bed?

12>If you find it difficult to use your imagination, look at a glossy magazine with photos of slim models. The real images of beautiful women will surely help suppress your appetite.
