Hold the bread (or rice or pasta) if you want dessert. Eating sweets at a meal adds extra carbohydrates. Because of this it is best to cut back on the other carb-containing foods at the same meal.
Add some healthy fat to your dessert.It many seem counterintuitive to pass over the low-fat or fat-free desserts in favor of their higher-fat counterparts.But fat slows down the digestive process, meaning blood sugar levels don't spike as quickly.That doesn't mean however,that you should reach for the donuts. think healthy fats,such as peanut butter,ricotta cheese,yogurt,or some nuts.
Eat sweets with a meal,rather than as a stand-alone snack.When eaten on their own, sweets and desserts cause your blood sugar to spike. but if you eat them along with other healthy food as part of your blood sugar won't rise ass rapidly
When you eat dessert, truly savor each bite.How many times have you mindlessly eaten your way through a bag of cookies or a huge piece of cake.Can you really say that you enjoyed each bite? Make your indulgence count by eating slowly and paying attention to the flavors and textures. You'll enjoy it more,plus you're less ikely to overeat
