How to Avoid Gaining Weight During Holiday Season? October 27, 2009

The holiday season is coming. During this period people celebrate and eat! Many people spend the whole year exercises and working hard on their fitness plan, but when holidays come they let themselves go, i.e. eat more and exercise less. So, how can you stay fit and avoid gaining weight during holidays?
- Healthy spices: Use cinnamon, peppermint and ginger as food flavorings, since these are good for your heart.
- Avoid much alcohol: Almost every drink, including alcohol, has calories. So, be careful not to drink too much of it.
- Drink water: Instead of sweet, sugary and fatty drinks drink a lot of water.
- Fewer sauces: Many sauces and condiments are rife with bad fats and calories.
- No fried: Always try to stay away from fried food as it could be unhealthy and bad for you.
- Walk: Walking helps you keep an active lifestyle, so don’t be shy to walk for about 30-60 minutes everyday.
- Exercise: Do not abandon your workout routine during holidays. Without exercise, it is very easy to gain weight rapidly. You can exercise during your favorite TV shows.
Final word, do not be hard on yourself during holidays. You can have fun and eat, as long as you keep it all fair, balanced, and planned.
Happy holidays!
