It’s time for Friday’s Fit and Healthy Lifestyle Tip
Today’s Tip: Eating Healthy Desserts
It’s important to be eating healthy desserts if you want to meet your weight loss and fitness goals. When most people think of dessert they don’t think it’s possible to do it in a healthy way because dessert is usually looked at as being cookies, ice cream, brownies, etc. Not so healthy choices!
You don’t have to give up eating dessert and CAN keep your healthy eating style by making smart dessert choices. Here are some smart dessert choices that come to my mind.
- 1/2-1 cup juice on ice (my favorite is Cranberry)
- fruit and yogurt
- cup of tea
- popcorn
- sorbet
- jello
To be honest, dessert is MY biggest downfall and has always been. I would really like to stop and be able to focus on changing that especially by making better dessert choices or none at all. It’s so ingrained in me that I need to have a dessert every night. I have tried to be mindful of that lately and within the last week I skipped THREE nights of dessert. That was a great achievement!
How many nights a week do you have dessert and what do you eat? AND What is your top tip for eating healthy desserts?
I found a yummy sounding recipe on Juliet’s blog (she has another link in that post to another dessert recipe that sounds good) and I’m happy to know I am not the only fan of dessert. I’m thinking this cookbook with healthy dessert recipes is right up my alley because I need all the help I can get *wink*
