During the Lunar New Year, family and friends gather together to eat, causing the consumption of fish meat to increase significantly compared to daily meals, while eating less green vegetables leads to an imbalance in diet.
Along with that, sitting for hours, not getting much exercise and sleeping a lot makes the metabolism slow down, causing more fat to be stored.
To avoid worrying about gaining weight after the holidays, you should keep the following tips in mind:
Eat a belly before the party
This seems paradoxical, but it is very necessary for people who want to lose weight. Because if you come to a party on an empty stomach, every food on the table can quickly "lure" you, leading to a large amount of food consumption, even though they contain a lot of fat and energy that increase your weight many times.
Therefore, snacking or brushing with a little fruit before the party is necessary.
Eat plenty of fiber
Limit eating a lot of fried foods, increase the amount of "fried" foods that are fat-free from the body such as cabbage, kohlrabi, mushrooms or green beans, red beans, green beans, green beans, dai, green beans... these substances play the role of insoluble fiber, contributing to limiting fat absorption.
Vegetables are a high-fiber food, such as artichokes, broccoli, spinach and bruxen cabbage. They are low in carbohydrates. According to research, 1 cup of artichoke tea contains 6g of fiber. Therefore, instead of starchy foods such as spinach, potatoes and white rice, prepare meals where vegetables account for about 1/2 of your portion sizes.
Eat slowly and don't miss meals
Many people believe that before eating a party, they should skip meals to be able to eat more. However, this will greatly affect the psychology while eating. That is the "excuses" for eating... innocently to fill your stomach.
In addition, eating quickly also "accidentally" causes you to gain weight. So eat slowly and chew thoroughly.
Drink plenty of water
No matter how busy you are with meetings, going out, or partying, always remember the rule of drinking 2 liters of filtered water per day. Lack of water makes the body unable to metabolize well, causing a buildup of toxins and fat. This also causes dull skin and acne.
Therefore, drinking enough water is not only good for your health but also an extremely effective way to prevent fat accumulation and excess fat.
Maintain exercise habits
During the holidays, it is necessary to maintain physical activities such as gymnication and running. Exercise can reduce stress and improve mood, helping to improve the spirit with a feeling of refreshment and ease. In addition, exercise will make you feel healthy, burn excess calories and feel more confident and comfortable.
In addition, you should regularly check your weight during Tet to remind yourself to stay in shape.
