Hey Guyz.Finnally an update!!!!!!!!
Well its The Season and Christmas is just around the corner, so its gonna be rough to control ur eatting! here are a few tips to make ur Chrismas dinner a little easier.
Pile on the Carrots
The key to the holidays is to enjoy friends, family, parties, and food, while remembering to exercise and control portion sizes.
At the buffet table, try filling your plate with fresh vegetables, melon slices, or other fresh fruit, salads, and slices of lean meat. Take smaller bits of the high-fat festive foods.
Instead of a sit-down gorge session, invite family and friends over at a between-meal time such as mid-afternoon or late evening. Serve a beverage and a few low-calorie snacks, such as steamed prawns with cocktail sauce, pretzels, air-popped popcorn, or low-fat tortilla chips and salsa. Pick a family member or friend to be your holiday binge-busting pal. Agree to cheer each other on when willpower wanes.
Don't Forget Exercise
Burning off extra calories could prove key to avoiding holiday weight gain. Exercising after work before you head to a party could help curb your appetite -- and help control added holiday stress.
Yet if your willpower fails one night, don't panic. Get up extra early the next day and take a walk or head to the gym for an extra day during the week.
You also can work exercise into family events. Bring out the togetherness at gatherings by organizing a game of basketball, touch football, or soccer. Plan a brisk walk after dinner instead of a second helping of pie.
You can bring exercise into your everyday holiday tasks as well. Instead of yet another lunch with friends, plan to meet at the mall for a 30-minute brisk walk past the stores before beginning the gift-purchasing frenzy. Park your car far from the mall entryway or try walking part of the way to a shop.
Other tips:
- Switch from light beer or wine to sparkling water with lemon or lime. Drink lots of water at a party. Fluids will fill you up, helping you avoid the binge.
- Grab a diet cola instead of a mug of eggnog and you'll save up to 300 calories.
- Sip iced tea instead of hot buttered rum and you'll avoid 400 calories.
- One frosty piña colada can pack 465 calories -- the calorie load of a double cheeseburger! Have an ice, cold orange juice instead.
Food is an important part of holiday festivities, but it shouldn't be the main event. With a little care and planning, even the weakest willed person can avoid the binges. So pile your plate high with carrots and cucumbers and make a sparkling-water toast!
