Chocolate Filled Crepe (1 Crepe With Filling)

Have a smaller portion—such as half a crepe—and save the remainder for later rather than eating it all at once.

Eat the crepe after a balanced meal containing protein and non-starchy vegetables, rather than on an empty stomach.

Choose a thin whole-grain or buckwheat crepe with a modest amount of dark-chocolate filling instead of a thick refined-flour crepe with sweet sauce.

Add a protein- and fat-rich side such as plain Greek yogurt, eggs, or a small handful of almonds or walnuts.

Skip extra sugary toppings and drinks; use a few raspberries or strawberries, cinnamon, or unsweetened yogurt instead.

Take an easy 10–20 minute walk soon after eating to help reduce the post-meal rise.
