Just Say No: Healthy Eating and Peer Pressure
Are you living a healthy lifestyle, or would you like to? Either way you are well aware of peer pressure to eat foods that are not part of this healthy lifestyle. If you have been consistently worried about the foods you have been eating under peer pressure – then you have found your solution! All takes is a little know-how to get people off your back!
You will probably find parties and other social gatherings play a major role in the peer pressure effecting your healthy lifestyle, especially if alcohol is involved. You need to remember though that alcohol carries hundreds of empty calories in just one drink, but under the pressure of your friends and family to have just one drink and relax may be very difficult. One way to overcome this is to offer to drive them to a bar instead. Suggest “going out” and since you will be the designated driver, they will not want you to drink. And they will probably even buy you waters or juice at the bar and help pay for the gas – it’s a win-win situation!
Another situation where you may feel pressured to eat is at work in a meeting where the boss has ordered lunch for everyone, or even when you may go see a client where they have supplied lunch. The only solution to this is to politely decline. It may even be easier to inform your boss or client in advance that you will not be eating. You can even pack a healthy lunch for yourself and take it along.
Even if you are good at resisting temptation; Birthday parties, baby showers, weddings and other special occasions can be hard on your healthy lifestyle. What do you do when someone hands you a piece of cake and will not take no for an answer? Little white lies may be appropriate in these kinds of situations. You may for example explain to them that your stomach has been upset earlier and that you do not want to risk having a piece of cake, this will convince them to keep the food away from you! You may even go as far as to say that you have bit of a chocolate/nut/dairy allergy depending on the food been offered to you.
Remember that it is fine to say no to bad foods because of peer pressure, but you must take careful note of the foods that you refuse – You must continue eating healthy foods. If you start saying no to food in general then dangerous eating disorders can develop which will give all you friends, family AND doctor a good reason to worry!
