GO FOR A LONG WALK
This seems like a no-brainer! Yes, going for a walk 15 to 20 minutes after you have overeaten can help clear your mind and makes your body feel better. We all know walking helps accelerate your tummy emptying, which further helps relieve uncomfortable fullness caused due to overeating.
SAY HELLO TO PROTEIN AND VEGGIES
This is for the next day! The day after you had an unplanned strong cheat day, you should choose a high protein and vegetable meal. Since you had a ton of bad calories a day before, combine it with a low calorie (high protein and vegetable meal) the next day!
DRINK WATER- LOTS OF WATER!
We all know that cheat meals consist of mostly junk foods and junk foods consist of lots of sugar and salt or both! So, you really want to bounce back after a strong cheat day, drink at least 2L water and flush out the salt, sugar and other toxins from your body!
HIT THE GYM
Exercising is one of the best ways to get back on track. Try hitting the gym the next day to stay motivated. Develop a regular working out routine helps prevent yourself from eating too much cheating meals in the future.
