Stop Overeating at Parties: 5 Hacks to Handle Pressure

Stop Overeating at Parties: 5 Hacks to Handle Pressure

  • November 24, 2025
  • by

Tell me why every party you attend feels like a mini food war. Rice piled higher than your head. Meat enough to start a butchery. Aunties side-eyeing you if you dare say, “No, I’m full.” And heaven help you if you leave food on the plate, it’s automatically labeled as disrespect. Deep down, you’re stuffed, sluggish, and bloated, but the pressure to keep eating never stops.

Problem: Why You’re Stuck

The truth? We’ve normalized overfeeding as love. In Nigerian culture, food equals care, status, and abundance. A mother won’t rest until you’ve...

Fat Loss vs Weight Loss: Know the Difference or Waste Time

Be honest, how many times have you stepped on the scale, seen the number drop, and thought, “Finally, it’s working!” … only to notice in the mirror that your belly still feels soft, your arms still jiggle, and those “goal jeans” still won’t zip up? That’s the gut punch. You’re losing weight, but your body doesn’t look or feel any different. And worse, the second you eat one slice of bread, the number jumps right back up.

Problem: Why You’re Stuck

Here’s the truth nobody likes to say out loud: chasing “weight...

Why You Need a System, Not a Meal Plan, for Weight Loss

Why You Need a System, Not a Meal Plan, for Weight Loss

You’ve downloaded six meal plans this year.

One from your gym guy. One from your cousin’s coach.
Two from Instagram. One from a Facebook group.
And that free one from a YouTuber with abs like granite.

They all looked promising.

You followed it for 3 days.
Maybe 5.

Then came life.

No gas. No groceries. No motivation.
You missed a meal. Felt bad.
Then said, “I’ve already messed up. Might as well just eat.”

Back to square one. Again.

Sound familiar?

THE PROBLEM:

Here’s the unfiltered truth:
Meal plans are short-term bandaids for a long-term war.

They don’t teach you...

7 High-Protein Nigerian Meals Under 500 Calories

7 High-Protein Nigerian Meals Under 500 Calories

Real Food. Real Flavor. Real Progress.

Eating clean in Nigeria doesn’t mean ditching local food or surviving on lettuce. If you’re tired of hiding in oversized clothes and choking down dry grilled chicken every day, this list is your lifeline. These meals are bold, familiar, and pack over 10g of protein while keeping you under 500 calories.

Okpa (Bambara Nut Pudding)

(Igbo: Okpa | Hausa: Gurjiya/Kwaruru | Yoruba: Epa-roro)
Why It Slaps: It’s filling, quick, and street-available. One wrap (200–250g) = 350–450 cal, 15–20g protein.
Fix the Morning Mess: Instead of skipping breakfast...

Why Nigerian Weddings Ruin Your Weight Loss Goals

Why Nigerian Weddings Ruin Your Weight Loss Goals

You wore your “goal dress.”

It barely zipped. But you made it work.

You promised yourself,  just small chops, nothing crazy.

Then the waiter came with jollof.

The second round came with pounded yam.

By the time you were doing zanku to “Who’s Your Guy,” you’d had Fanta, small chops, goat meat, cake, ice cream… and regret.

You smiled in the photos.
But you left that wedding bloated, guilty, and back at square one.

Again.

THE PROBLEM:

Nigerian weddings are designed to make you forget your goals.

Let’s be honest:

You arrive hungry because you didn’t want to “eat twice.” The food...
Why You Keep Restarting Your Diet Every Monday

Why You Keep Restarting Your Diet Every Monday

It’s Sunday night. Again.

Your phone’s on low battery. Your spirit is too.

You just told yourself, for the 15th time this year , “Tomorrow, I start again.”

You’re bloated from jollof and puff-puff, annoyed with yourself, and already googling detox teas while promising to “be serious” this time.

But deep down, you know what’s coming.

By Thursday? You’ll be wrist-deep in plantain chips.

And by Saturday? You’re spiraling on Instagram, watching someone else’s transformation video… while hating yourself quietly in silence.

Why does this keep happening?

Why does “Monday” always come… but never stay?

THE REAL PROBLEM:

My name is Juliet and I’m a mom, businesswoman, blogger, aspiring baker and Vincent’s lifetime girl! As a passionate weight ‘loss enthusiast’, I help people overcome their weight challenges by providing motivation, meal plans, recipes, exercise plans, tips and tricks simply because I’ve been there.

I believe in life- in all its beauty, dangers, worries, fun, pains, work (O yes!) excitement, happiness. I know that within each one of us is a burning desire to share, to do good, to work, to find meaning, to enhance that which we perceive to be oh so not good about us.

Weight challenges are an individual thing. Beauty issues are in the eyes of the beholder (my take!). But then, there’s a common denominator in all our problems: they won’t go away on their own. 

There’s no one size fits all remedy for life’s problems. At khyra my aim is to provide you with the motivation, info, tools, time and community of like minds to help on your journey to a fit, graceful and trendy you. 

I’ll be sharing home grown, weight loss, beauty and fitness ideas that help the modern woman (and our men!) shed excess kilograms, keep the weight off, live healthy vibrant lives, enjoying themselves and being at their most beautiful and productive best

Visiting for the first time?  Welcome!  For you to have read this far, it means you are ready to take charge of your life, enjoy your time on the planet and give life your best shot. I welcome queries, suggestions and criticisms. Living is learning and Khyra ain’t no different!
