Has this ever happened to you? \u00a0You decide to splurge and order dessert. \u00a0The first bite is amazing, but then as you continue to eat the dish begins to lose its luster.<\/p>\n

\"\"Nothing is ever as good as those first couple of bites, so why is it then that we just can\u2019t seem to quit while we\u2019re ahead? \u00a0We should be able to savor what portion of the dessert we did have and feel good about the fact that we didn\u2019t eat the whole thing. \u00a0This, however, takes some will power.<\/p>\n

Here are a couple of quick suggestions on how to make this a little easier while still allowing yourself to enjoy the sweet treat:<\/p>\n

1. \u00a0Share<\/strong> – If there are four of you at dinner, order one or two desserts, taste and enjoy each of them and then stop. \u00a0Nobody wants to be the one that finishes the whole thing, right?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

2. \u00a0Focus<\/strong> \u2013 If there are only two of you, stop talking when dessert arrives. \u00a0Focus on the taste of those first few bites and really enjoy it. \u00a0Then, push the dessert aside and continue with your conversation. \u00a0This will allow you to fully use your senses on this indulgence and, since you aren\u2019t clearing the plate, you won\u2019t be riddled with the guilt after you leave.<\/div>\n
