If you are one of those who says that the diet begins in January … we agree with you. However, you do not need to resort to extreme measures, you only have to reduce calories but in a healthy way
Here we tell you how to recover after the holidays:
Start the day with nutrients
Surely this advice will sound familiar to you since previously we have recommended starting your day with a light and nutritious breakfast. Fruit, smoothies, oatmeal with nuts or Greek yogurt are some options to start your day with energy and few calories.
Don't skip meals
Failure to eat at your hours will cause you to be uncontrollably hungry at night, causing you to have no control over what you eat. So don't forget: light breakfast and lunch.
Walk walk walk
To counteract the long Christmas meals, we recommend you walk or do a little exercise during the first hours of the day. That way, you won't feel guilty during your dinner and will help your body feel more active at night.
Opt for white meats
Be it turkey, chicken or fish. White meats are famous for their low fat content and their high nutrient content. Oh, and don't forget to remove the skin before consuming them.
Start with salads
Remember that it takes about 20 minutes for our brain to grasp that we have eaten enough; so if you start your meals with a salad, you will give your body time to process and decide how much food it needs.
Stay away from the bread
Yes, we know that bread is a delight and almost impossible not to eat; however, if you start eating bread you will fill up fast and obviously consume unnecessary calories. If you like us cannot have dinner without at least one piece of bread, leave it to accompany your main course. You will see how you eat only one or two, instead of four slices.
Wine and natural water
As you know, beer is one of the drinks that has the most calories, and also makes you feel inflamed; therefore you must stay away from it. Better choose to drink wine, either red or white, and between glasses drink a glass of natural water.
