5. Say “no” to the freebies
Many restaurants pride themselves on the pre-meal freebies they bring out for their guests, and much of the time those freebies are things like bread, rolls, biscuits, and butter. While it may not seem like it, indulging in these free offerings can really throw your healthy eating plan seriously off course.
These treats often have hundreds of calories that you are piling on even before you start on the main meal. Believe it or not, bread or other carb-heavy offerings can actually stimulate your body to produce insulin, which ends up making you even more hungry!
