When we've fed this balanced meal to our bodies, it basically does not require a dessert. This is as simple as I can put it. After a balanced meal, there is no need to bring out the sweet food. I am not saying banish these foods for eternity, what I am suggesting though, is now that we're well into our h.i.t lifestyle, it is imperative to accept that desserts aren't foods we need, they are fatteners we want.
This food group is the one which fattens us most of all. These are the culprits that we must keep our eyes on, for they are the ones that will hurt us the most. It would've been crazy for us to even consider this at week one, but now we've been h.i.t from head to toe, in order to continue, desserts have to be checked.
We've lessened the portions, and in our next chapter, we'll get ready to go a tiny bit further with that. But before we do this, we must work on the desserts. It is time for us to knock one dessert off our week. So if we have one every night after dinner, we can now only have six per week. If we had some four times a week, now is our chance to cut that down to three and so on. We cannot move from here unless we knock the desserts down. So I'll stick here, stick here, until that's decided. Stick here.
One point to note, if we were having one after every meal (shame on us) then I dare say, it's time to knock one entire day's worth of desserts off, as this is way too much and would never in a million years help anyone to lose any weight whatsoever. No matter how much physical activity you're now doing. Remember if you never put it in, there will be no need to have to work it off. Soon popular desserts would be just an occasional thing for us, when we've achieved this, we've arrived.
If a sweet taste after dinner is a must, try fruit with a drizzle of honey, tinned peaches and pears, etc, foods which we discuss further in the following chapter.
Chapters one to nine have brought us thus far, we have a little more way to go.
