While traditional Valentine’s seem to revolve around the giving
or receiving of chocolates or some other sweet treat, there are alternatives
for those on a no-sugar diet. If walking through the aisles of the store has
your sugar cravings heightened, here are a few ways to make Valentine’s fun
without all the side effects of sugar.
1.
Fruit
Valentines: Chose your favorite fruit and add a cute line to go with it.
Examples: ‘I’m BANANAS for you,’ ‘We make a great PEAR,’ ‘ORANGE you glad we
are friends?’ or even ‘You are the APPLE
of my eye.”
2.
Healthy Hearts:
Heart shaped cookie cutters can be used for more than cookies, candies, and
cake! See how many fruits or veggies you can slice up to add a festive yet
healthy flair to your holiday routine.
3.
‘Squeeze’ in a
Little Fun: Find a sugar-free applesauce or yogurt with an attached card
reading ‘Valentine, you are my main SQUEEZE.’
Valentine’s Day is about spending time with those you love, and
what a better way to show it than by encouraging healthy habits. If you are on
a no-sugar diet, don’t let Valentine’s Day get in the way of your healthy
habits. To learn more about sugar cravings and how to overcome them, visit http://sugar-zen.com/
