Watch movies and "consume" snacks continuously
During the Tet holiday, many people have the habit of spending most of their time binge-watching their favorite movies. Immersing yourself in the screen and mindlessly snacking on junk food can cause you to consume a lot of calories without being able to control it.
To avoid gaining too much weight during the Tet holiday, limit snacking while watching movies, avoid eating processed foods such as french fries, fried chicken or drinking carbonated soft drinks.
sleep less
Taking advantage of the time off, many people will change their sleeping habits during Tet. Instead of going to bed on time, people will spend the Tet holiday watching movies, going out and participating in many other activities. Too little sleep affects the secretion of hormones that regulate hunger and appetite. An imbalance in the secretion of these hormones is the reason why you feel hungry even when you are full.
Regularly buy snacks
During Tet, you will have to spend time shopping and going to the supermarket to buy food, which makes it impossible for you to eat on time and you will choose fast food available in shopping malls.
In addition, regularly going to the supermarket and shopping also increases your ability to choose items on the snack shelf more than usual.
Eating too much at midnight
Taking advantage of the Tet holiday, many people will often go out all night, stay up late and eat late at night with a lot of processed foods. Many scientific studies have shown that staying up late increases appetite, which makes you consume too many calories in a day and cause weight gain.
Even more worrying, frequent late-night snacking can lead to mindless eating habits that are difficult to break. If possible, avoid eating anything after dinner and plan to eat dinner early to give your food time to digest.
Regular consumption of alcohol and alcoholic beverages
Holiday parties often make you drink wine, beer and other alcoholic drinks. These drinks contain many empty calories and when they stay in the body long enough, they will cause weight gain.
