Table of Contents
1. Make a healthy salad
In a study by L.S. Roe, J. S. Meengs, B. J. Rolls, 46 women consumed a vegetable salad (300 g, about 100 kcal) before or during a main meal. As a result, they consumed about 10% fewer calories than usual. Eating vegetables was associated with increased satiety and decreased appetite.2. Have some water
In a study by N. J. McKay, I. V. Belous, J. L. Temple, participants who drank about 1.5 liters of water in the morning ate less than usual for lunch.3. It's all in moderation
It's a holiday to celebrate, it shouldn't involve extra stress. One day of abstinence from dieting can help restore strength and boost motivation, provided it doesn't lead to uncontrolled overeating. S. A. Parry and others in their experiment showed that even one day of eating (78 percent more energy than usual, including 68 percent from fat) can reduce insulin sensitivity in healthy people. Although it seems surprising, moderate intake can have such a significant metabolic effect (which is not a definite reduction in weight).4. A grandmother instead of a butterfly
To experience the pleasures of eating, but at the same time to minimize calorie intake, it is best to choose those dishes that are the least calorific. For example, 100 g of sandwiches delivers 399 kcal, kaymak maurek almost 100 kcal more 475 kcal.5. Avoid small snacks
A small chocolate egg may contain a surprising number of kilocalories, so it is best to avoid eating between meals. The calorie content of selected Christmas sweets: chocolate rabbit (100 g) 540 kcal, dairy chocolate egg (35 g)6. Don't buy it in stock
Easter is actually one day, but sometimes the celebration is extended by a few days because of the leftover food left over from the festivities. It's not worth overpaying and buying an excessive amount of food. It is best to plan the number of meals and portions. The excess can be shared with guests.7. Don't give up on your workouts
Physical activity during the holidays will partially compensate for the excess calories consumed. During a 60-minute walk, you can burn up to 210 calories. It's worth saving an hour and spending it on exercise.8. Remember the target
As noted by B. Höchli, A. Brügger, C. Messner in the journal Frontiers in Psychology, goal-setting increases motivation and chances of success. The goal should be attainable, clear and precise, e.g. Instead of an undefined goal, it is worthwhile to lose 2 kg in 1.5 months. However, D. Morisano and others have shown that goal setting can improve outcomes in science (at the university level). As they say, one of the most common reasons for failure to study is a defined goal and motivation.9. Avoid weighing yourself during the Christmas season
Weight loss during the holiday season is not recommended. Even if everything goes according to plan, there is no doubt that this is a day when calorie intake is higher than in previous days. Weight gain can shift slightly to the right. Such fluctuations are normal and if one returns to healthy habits the next day, it should not affect body weight. Gaining weight the day after Easter can only cause unnecessary stress and decrease motivation.10. Enjoy the Christmas season
Spending time with loved ones is often underestimated.. as the past few months have shown, life can be unpredictable.. which is why it's worth celebrating time with family and friends.
