3. Drink Lots of Water
Cheat meals consist of bad foods and bad foods have lots of salt or sugar – or both!
The best way to bounce back after a cheat meal is to flush the salt, sugar and other toxins out of your system by drinking water.
Try to drink at least 2 liters of water.
4. Go Easy on Yourself
This one might sound logical, however in practice it can be hard to put a cheat day behind you.
Personally, you may still be harping on days after, but there’s nothing you can do about it except move forward and turn your cheat into motivation.
A cheat meal won’t hurt us as long as we have a plan to regain control.
Include these four tips into your plan and you’re always back on track the day after a cheat meal!
We hope this helps!
