Hello folks....
With the nicer weather is around the corner and summer festivals kicking off, what do you do to help contain the cravings from all the street vendors?.
I was at festival last weekend which had food vendors such as Poutine, Taco's, Funnel Cakes, Blooming Onions, Kebobs, and all other types of "Street Meat". For me, I had a great meal at home before I left and drank a mess load of water to keep me full. They had 3 live bands and the whole street was licensed so you can drink alcohol on the 1 km stretch. For me, I budgeted myself for 3 light beers and no snacks which I surprising stuck too. I guess the bottom line is before heading out to any festivals, make sure you fill the void or "Top off the Tank" so going in you don't go into sensory overload and begin eating those desirable things.... This seem to work for me...What's your secret to ignoring the calls?
