Splurge - How to Do it Every Day

Posted on Mar 17th 2009 1:00PM by Bev Sklar

So many of us diet hard for two weeks, lose five pounds, then splurge ourselves right back up the weight ladder. But splurging on our food favorites every day won't keep the weight off, right? Not true for Mark Bittman, who lost 35 pounds eating vegan all day and then splurging on dinner.

A splurge every day -- sounds more appealing than a strict diet. "FitSugar" has the full vegan scoop on this author of "Food Matters: A Guide to Conscious Eating With More Than 75 Recipes."

I agree with this. Strict dieting just doesn't work. I tell my clients that they should treat themselves at least once a week. For example, I don't eat desert during the week but I will have desert on Sunday. A few years ago, I had stopped eating desert (not on purpose, I just stopped) and then one day someone brought a tin of cookies in (it was around Christmas) and something must have snapped. All I wanted to eat was cookies! So it is better to have a cookie now and then than to go on an all out binge for a week. :)
