You Can Eat Chocolate and Still Make Progress.
If you label certain foods as “off-limits” they only become more tempting!
This Easter, instead of cutting out your favourite treats, try practising mindful eating - it’s not about restriction, it’s about balance. You can enjoy your chocolate eggs and support your health goals at the same time.
Here are my top tips for your Easter weekend:
Eat regular, balanced meals throughout the day - skipping meals can lead to overeating later.
Include a quality protein source in every meal, like chicken, tofu, eggs or beans - it helps you feel fuller for longer.
Stay hydrated - aim for 6–8 glasses of fluid a day.
Keep moving - whether it’s a gym session or a walk with the family, do something you enjoy.
Prioritise rest - aim for 7–9 hours of sleep to support energy levels and reduce cravings.
A few chocolates won’t derail your progress. What matters most is what you do consistently, not occasionally! Happy Easter.
