1. Be flexible. In most cases, folks who overeat on weekends follow strict diets on weekdays. So when the weekend comes, they feel the need to reward themselves by overindulging in foods they couldn’t eat during the week. Follow flexible eating habits during the week to avoid this trap. Allow yourself to eat some of the foods you crave during the week—if you feel like eating pasta and meatballs for dinner on Tuesday, eat that. Being flexible will eliminate the feeling of deprivation and the need to reward yourself. 2. Re-think cheat days. Cheat days may work for some people, but they hinder weight loss for others. If cheat days help you lose weight and maintain sanity, continue having them. But if you always overeat and have feelings of guilt after cheat days, it's time to give them up. Chances are, if you have a cheat day on Friday, you’ll overeat on Saturday. 3. Stop Restricting Yourself. Restrictions on foods you should and shouldn’t eat usually lead to overeating and bingeing. Some dieters even start craving foods they don’t like simply because they’re not allowed to eat them. Instead, allow a few indulgences throughout the week, and you won't overindulge on the weekends. 4. Understand why you’re overeating. There will always be justifiable reasons to overeat--I was with friends, I was lonely, I was at a party,` and so on. All these situations can’t be the reason you eat too much. Find out the real reason why you overeat. It could be stress, anxiety, sadness, loneliness, and so on. Keep a record of the habits that make you overeat, and eventually you’ll come up with an underlying reason. 5. Stay busy on the weekends. Stay busy and find ways to keep your mind off food. Read a book, go for a walk, clean the house—keep your legs moving in some way. You’re more likely to overeat if you sit around the house doing nothing. 6. Keep alcohol in check. Not only is alcohol high in calories, it can lead to poor dietary choices. So avoid getting drunk or make sure you’re full before you start drinking.
