We’re talking a business meal & drinks here
Probably a lunch & most likely an alcoholic drink or 2
The guys I work with have these issues all the time
The key is to do small things that will reduce the extra calories you might
eat or drink
Or burn a few more calories to counteract any extra you do have
So here’s what I advise the guys I work with
1. If you ‘have’ to have a beer drink a bottle
You may have a meeting over drinks or the client orders a beer so you feel
you have to
Pints obviously contain more calories & can be super gassy
The less calories the better and you definitely don’t want to be burping in their
face half way through
By the way you know they do low carbohydrate/calorie beer now as well
Drinking bottles rather than pints will 100% reduce your calorie intake
2. Order a beer in a dark bottle
For the simple reason it’s harder for them to see how much you’ve drank
People tend to match each others drinking speed
& you’ll feel inclined to have another one when there’s an empty glass sitting
in front of you
It’s always slightly awkward sitting there for ages with empty glasses
Plus it’s going to be harder for the bar staff/galss collectors to see as well
They’re much less likely to come over & ask if you’d like another when you’re
only just over half way through
Corona or Sol are definitely ones to avoid
This alone may save you an extra beer or 2 over say an hours meeting
Which would easily save you around 300 calories
Amstel light at less than 100 calories per bottle is a solid dark glassed option

3. Book a training session in before
You know exercise helps with mental alertness & focus right?
Concentration as well
Also by getting a session done you’ve burned some calories cancelling
out any extra you may have
Meaning no extra calories left over to be stored as fat
Happy days
So book a session in on meeting days
Book it in to your diary
Book a joint session with a colleague so you don’t let them down
Book a class so you feel like you have to go
Or even pay for a session with a trainer so you have money on the line
Whatever you do get a session in before even if thats a 15 minute bodyweight
circuit at home
