Super Diet tips to lose weight during winter.
A few simple yet important dietary tips when followed consistently could not only help you cut all that excess weight but also make you feel more energetic.
1. Pick all things fresh.
Winter calls for lazy meals at home. We generally end up preparing a so-called healthy bowl of packaged soup than making it fresh. Any packaged or processed food will only mean you are loading up on excessive sodium, preservatives and sugar, all of which can cause weight gain. Winter is a time when markets are full of fresh greens. Stock up and plan ahead. Use a variety of seasonal goodies to make healthy food that is prepared from the scratch.
2. Sip on herbal teas.
(Check out the simple fat loss tea recipe at the end of this article.)
We generally feel less thirsty during cold days, which results in dehydration without us even realizing. Moreover, what we often feel are hunger pangs are actually signs that the body needs some water, not food. A dehydrated body has a weak metabolic system. Sip on warm water or warm herbal teas to not just soothe and re-hydrate your body but also keep you fuller for long. Green tea, black tea, red tea, chamomile tea and oolong tea are known to dynamically manage your appetite and further prevent you from stuffing yourself.
3. Eat a low-calorie soup before a meal.
According to a study conducted by the Penn State University, eating a low-calorie soup right before a meal could keep you from overeating, resulting in less calorie consumption. The study was presented at the Experimental Biology Conference in Washington D.C. The research shows that participants who ate soup before lunch reduced their total calorie intake by 20 % as compared to those who didn't consume soup. The study also mentioned that you should choose low-calorie, broth-based soups rather than high-calorie, cream-based soups that could only add to your weight gain woes.
4. Fill up your plate with protein.
Protein helps keep you fuller for long, thereby, preventing you from loading up on sugary, fattening stuff, especially during winter. Moreover, it also helps stabilise blood sugar levels that could help lose weight efficiently.
5. Engage in indoor physical activities.
It is not mandatory to always choose outdoor activities, instead you could choose interesting indoor exercises like light workouts, yoga, dance, and pilates, all of which you can enjoy during winters. All you need to do is to drop your blanket and take out some 20 minutes to stay fit and lose weight. Losing weight can be pretty tough, especially during winters. With these simple tips, you can burn body fat, stay healthy and feel energetic.
Sugars and Weight Loss
Sugars and Christmas Season
Sugar is the leading cause of weight gain and a variety of diseases common to modern life. It’s very bad for you and it’s in everything. If you want to check my facts on this, here’s a very easy way to do it. The next time you’re at the store, pick up a bottle of salad dressing, a bag of instant potatoes, something from the frozen section, a bottle of juice or even a can of tomato soup. Look at the list of ingredients and see if any of the following appear near the top of the list:
Sugar
Brown sugar
Fructose
Corn syrup
Malto dextrin
All of these, and some more too, are sugars. Now here’s the eye-opener – ingredients are listed from the highest concentration to the lowest. So that means that if any type of sugar is in the top 3 positions, it’s in that product in huge amounts. Cutting down on your sugar intake is going to go a long way to helping you control your weight. It’s the beginning of the process, and you’d be very surprised at how easy it is to lose weight simply by eating in harmony with your own body.
Believe it or not, you can actually drop as much as a pound a day without running, pumping iron, starving yourself or eating anything weird! It’s true, and by clicking the link below, I’ll show you a free video that explains why I know this and how it works.
