On a Detox Diet? 5 Tips to Resist Temptations:-

You decide to take a break from junk food, alcohol and ciggies to detoxify yourself. Food habits change and no more add extra spice or oil. Though it's almost bland, you want to stick to it. But, you're tempted to give up. Well, don't! Here are some ways to keep away from the lure of tasty temptations.

Eat alone for a while
Avoid eating lunch with friends in college or colleagues. Sit alone for a while. Their food will taste more delicious since it has all the ingredients you cannot include in your diet. "Excuse yourself from the main group and eat alone. This will save you from temptation," says Dr Purwa Duggal, a dietician at Wockhardt Hospital, Mumbai.

No more canteen
Everyone can't make changes for you to help you stick to your diet. Carry your own snacks so that you don't depend on outside food. "Carry fruits to keep you going through the day and a little something for long hours. It's healthier and you know you're sticking to your diet," says Dr Duggal.

Junk out!
Give away all those sweet laddoos, fried papads and those fiery chaklis. Give them to your neighbours or your friends, but clear them off before you start your detox diet. "Keep all junk away to resist temptation and stack healthy snacks instead," says Dr Duggal.

No take-aways, thank you
He may want to show his love by not wanting you to cook this one day. But, you really can't eat something from outside. According to Stanulet Pinto, dietician, Hiranandani Hospital, Mumbai, "You can ask him to have what he wants to, outside, without doggy packing it. It isn't fair to deny others of a good meal."

Juices please
You've to be off caffeine if you are on a detox diet. "Drink fresh fruit juices sans the added sugar. Refined sugar is unhealthy and canned juices have no fibre. For a proper detox, opt for fresh fruit juice," says Pinto.
If you're sleepy, bite into an apple or a pear to feel awake. Its crunchy texture is bound to make you feel fresh.
Feel good and look good with a temptation free detox diet.
