Is your local weekend market hampering your weight loss goals?
It all looks so fresh and healthy
It’s true, your weekend country or farmers' market is great for sourcing seasonal, organic, and healthy foods.
But if you’re not careful, this healthy vibe can easily rack up those extra calories and make nutritious food seem more diet-friendly than it really is.
Sneaky foodie samples
Little nibbly bits are a great way to sample some tasty delicacies before you decide to buy them, but be mindful of how many of those you’re really eating. All those cheesy balls, pizza squares, and cake cubes can quickly pile on extra sneaky calories.
Nibble the healthy way
One of the best parts about going to a market over the weekend is experiencing different foods, so don’t deprive yourself completely by avoiding all samples. Just be mindful of what you’re eating and how many little nibbles you’re having.
Tip: Fill up with a healthy lunch and drink plenty of water, this will help you resist extra foodie temptations while you’re at the market.
