Hey Operation Flourish Fam!
It's National Dessert Day and a time to celebrate the sweet treats we love. But does enjoying a delicious dessert have to conflict with our health goals? Not necessarily!
When it comes to #ChooseHealth, balanced nutrition is key. This doesn't mean you have to forgo all indulgences. Instead, it's about enjoying treats in moderation as part of a well-rounded diet.
Mindful eating can help you savor your desserts without overindulging. Here are some tips:
Pay attention to your senses: Notice the taste, texture, and aroma of your dessert.
Eat slowly: Take small bites and savor each mouthful.
Listen to your body: Pay attention to your hunger and fullness cues.
One relatively healthy and light dessert option is Greek yogurt parfait. Topped with fresh fruit, nuts, and a drizzle of honey, it's a delicious and nutritious treat.
Remember, the key is balance. Enjoy your favorite desserts occasionally but prioritize a healthy and varied diet for overall well-being.
Happy National Dessert Day!
Cheerfully yours, Kayla Myers
