Overenthusiastic hosts often force-feed guests who end up regretting the meal. Take small quantities of food and decline second servings citing health concerns.
Stay hydrated
Often, when we feel hungry it is because we are dehydrated, and drinking water can counter that hunger pang. The feeling of fullness induced by water prevents overeating better.
Prevent temptations
Live a disciplined life and keep a cheat day once a week for unhealthy eating but adhere to an otherwise strict portion-controlled balanced diet. Do not store junk food at home.
Learn how to cook
Not knowing how to cook often leads one to order food and binge eat. This eventually becomes a habit. You also cannot keep a check on your calorie intake when eating restaurant food.
