5 tips to keep the line during the holidays

The end-of-year celebrations are an opportunity to spend convivial evenings with families around a good meal and we all know that our silhouette risks taking quite a hit! So how do you limit the damage and make sure to start the new year without excess pounds to eliminate? Here are 5 tips that can help you spend the holidays by limiting excess while having fun:

1. Treat yourself smart!

Integrate foods from each group by combining them intelligently. For meat, fish or seafood, choose grilled, roasted, en papillote or oven-cooked cooking methods and serve the sauces on the side. Prefer vegetable sticks with petit fours, oysters with foie gras, or the fruity sorbet with chocolate log.

2. Avoid bloating for a flatter stomach

Bloating is caused by the production of gas in the digestive tract based on the air swallowed while eating.

Limit the intake of fermentable carbohydrates (white beans, chickpeas, or lentils, etc.) and crucifers (cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower or even turnips, etc.).

Take your time to eat and enjoy the food. Eating too quickly promotes the production of air or gas in your belly. Also, you have to wait an average of 20 minutes after eating to feel full.
If you eat too quickly, the brain doesn't have time to tell your stomach that it's full and you risk eating more than your stomach really needs.

3. Pace yourself

During this festive period, the rhythms are generally jostled. The time devoted to physical activity is reduced in favor of the pleasures of the table. Here are some good habits to adopt:

In the morning, when you get up, give yourself a quarter of an hour of gymnastics to maintain the muscles of the abdominal strap.

After lunch, for example, take a "digestive" walk of at least thirty minutes to get some oxygen while working your muscles.

During the day, always prefer walking to the car or other transport. It is a natural and pleasant way to integrate physical activity into your daily life.

4. Give your body good sleep

Fatigue and stress are often felt at the end of the year. It is necessary not to pass on sleep, especially since it is good for the line!

Lack of sleep can increase feelings of hunger by 25% according to a recent US study . The more you sleep, the less your genetic heritage predetermines your weight. A quality sleep allows you to better control your line.

5. Dare to detox after the holidays

It's not very good to opt for too drastic a diet after the holidays. It's too brutal and above all difficult to hold. However, you can plan light meals, without fat or added sugar: grilled fish, raw vegetables, green vegetables... The objective is to improve your digestion, to purify and drain the body.

To eliminate toxins you have to drink a lot. Plain water rather than sparkling water, especially if you tend to be bloated.
