You Should Eat Mince Pies on a Diet
Is it ok to eat mince pies when you’re trying to eat healthily?
What about all the other tasty festive treats we’re surrounded by over Christmas, surely they’re going to ruin your diet?
The ‘problem’ with these foods is that they are usually high in sugar and fat, making them high calorie (which adds up to weight gain), and very tasty, so easy to overeat and not stop at just one.
But here’s the thing – being a healthy weight is not the only thing that matters in life.
Not only is eating tasty treats occasionally not going to hurt in the long run, living a life of restriction and deprivation every day of the year does not make for a happy existence.
Of course there’s a balance to be had, and the reason most people who preach about ‘moderation’ is because their idea of balance and moderation is a little skewed.
But I’ll certainly be enjoying the odd mince pie this Christmas, and when PT Magazine asked me to write about why I was happy to encourage others to relax a little too.
