We all overeat sometimes and usually end up feeling uncomfortable, tired, or even guilty. Here are a few useful tips on how to get back on track after overeating and feel better—both physically and mentally.
Go for a Walk
Going for a walk is probably one of the best things you can do for your body after eating too much food. Walking for 30 to 45 minutes is more than enough to boost your energy and mood, and feel better about yourself.
Don’t Deprive Yourself
Just because you ate too much food this one time doesn’t mean you should restrict your food the next day or go on a strict diet. Enjoy your next meal when you’re hungry, but try to eat healthily and incorporate more fruits and veggies into your diet.
Hydrate
It’s important to drink water after eating too much, especially if you eat spicy and salty food. A glass of water will help you feel better and give you enough energy for the day.
Detox
Start the next day off right by opting for healthy and nutritious foods. Drink a glass of water with slices of lemon or ginger and then eat a healthy breakfast with fresh veggies such as a green smoothie.
