The Power Of Late-Night Snacking

You’re staring at your computer screen with weary eyes. Dinner has  come and gone, but  that oh-so-familiar beast we call Hunger has  reeled its damn head again.

But you can’t snack after eight o’clock, right? That’s weight loss  rule  number one.  Or is it?

I’m about to share with you some helpful truths for a situation of this kind.

There’s an ironic flipside to my mostly honorable label of "Liz Swann Miller – Weight Loss
Expert." I must strictly resign myself to the  continuous expectation the  general public attributes to the  title – that  I have it together.

Liz would never gain excessive amounts of weight. Liz would never give in to that  looming golden M on the  highway. Liz doesn’t snack late at night. How does Liz do it?

Let me  tell you a secret. Liz struggles. Liz feels the  exact temptations you feel,  and resists the exact pulls  you resist.

As this "Weight Loss Expert," I often need to remind myself not only to pursue a healthy lifestyle in order to fulfill the  expectation of my title and my career, but  for my optimal well- being.

The temptation, for me,  is at its worst late at night, during that  time  when I’ve supposedly declared eating over, yet I’m fighting  hunger, bleary-eyed, answering hundreds of emails from clients seeking advice for topics such as this.

Firstly – it’s important to note that  hunger is a basic survival  instinct – and we must be grateful for it. The fact  that  it exists is an amazing feat in itself. Don’t be ashamed. Just know  how to appease the  beast.

There are those who  claim  the  most effective diets are those which  have you eating only two meals a day, and drinking water for the  rest.  I strongly encourage you to ignore these methods, as they are not sustainable.

The secret is snacking. And I don’t mean digging around in a bag of chips and licking the salt  off your fingers (we’ve all been there). I mean pouring yourself a bowl  of organic nuts. Or blueberries. Or frozen peas. Be inventive, but clever about it. Choose the  right food  in moderation.

But let’s talk about the  late-night secret. It’s simple. And easy. Are you ready for it?

Okay. It’s a cup of tea. Don’t underestimate those three words. Not to drink immediately before bed, but  rather in the  gap between dinner and sleep.

My go-to is the  always delicious, always sufficient  Red Tea. It satisfies the  hunger itch, but leaves me  feeling clean, calm and revitalized, primarily  due to its detoxifying properties. And it’s caffeine free – so don’t fear, you won’t be bouncing from the  walls.

After my extensive studies around fat-burning solutions, the  myths and the  answers, I created this tea with ingredients selected carefully for late-night cravings and overall weight loss  (you can find the recipe in the link below). The benefits are  endless, but  the solution is simple.

Set yourself a challenge. I’ll be right there with you. Ditch the  chips, the  ice cream, and the guilty pleasure of cheese blocks. Get the kettle bubbling and pour yourself a steaming mug of Red Tea. I guarantee – you will fall in love with the  taste – and late-night cravings will be a beast of the  past.
