Gaining excessive weight during the holidays does not have
to leave you nervous. It can become difficult to avoid overindulging in food at
work parties, dinners, holiday snacks, and even while at family gatherings.
Guess
what? It is possible for you to stay on top of your cravings during the holiday
season and all year round with these helpful tips!
Tip #1: Drink Water
Drink water as soon as you wake up and throughout the day. Water
is also a great appetite suppressant. The more water you drink the fuller you
will feel and the less you will crave.
Tip #2: Eat breakfast
You may have heard that breakfast is one of the most important
meals of the day. You can make your breakfast one of the filling meals of the
day, by not just snacking on an apple or banana. Add a little variety depending
on your lifestyle. For example, if you make a smoothie to-go have it will some granola,
nuts, or mixed fruits. Love boiled eggs? Then take a few with you on the go.
Tip #3: Pack Your Own Healthy Snacks
Whenever you are running errands or you are just home and
your sweet tooth is out of control, it’s good to have a healthy snack stash.
Veggie chips, rice cakes, Smart Pop Pop Corn, and even dark chocolate are all
healthy snacks that you can eat in moderation. So, go head-on and get your carefree
snack on!
Tip #4: Eat Slowly
Take your time eating. Consuming your food too fast
makes your body will not realize it’s full. When you eat quickly it can result in your overeating
and weight gain.
Tip #5: Remember Your Why
Remember why you chose to embark on a healthy lifestyle in
the beginning. The holidays will come, and they will go. Keep in mind that it
takes longer to lose weight than it does to gain it. The way you think
about and view your lifestyle matters. You do not have to let your holiday goals
go in vain.
Tip #6 Herbal Teas Help
