Well, first of all, if you are one of those people with extreme willpower and self-discipline who was able to pay attention to themselves and what they eat and drink during the holiday, congratulations! Because you are in a small group that has accomplished a truly difficult task. The remaining majority is the group that generally likes to exaggerate on holiday, says "We are on holiday anyway", and has surrendered itself to the psychological comfort and complacency of the holiday. On vacation; If you are from a group of people who have overdone everything from alcohol, pastries, fried foods, desserts, acidic drinks, meat dishes, smoking, irregular sleep and inactivity, and have probably gained 3-5 kilos in a week, or if you are noticing your swelling, hello! This article was written for you...
Yes, you have left the holiday behind now, we don't want it to be a year where you continue to gain weight and bad eating habits throughout the autumn and winter months, and then rush to lose weight towards the summer, right? In order to get rid of this, how about creating a new diet while we're done with our holidays and winter is just around the corner?
Yes, let's see what habits we should adopt;
1. Let's make drinking water a habit, not a duty.
Unfortunately, although we know that drinking water is the greatest method of purification, there are those of us who cannot make it a habit. We have all heard that almost all biological events in the body occur thanks to water. What are we waiting for then? Only through experience can you see that the idea of drinking at least 2.5 liters of water a day, which may seem difficult to you at first, will turn into a habit that you cannot give up as you drink more. Let's take the first step, what are we waiting for?
2. Let's find the appropriate number of meals for ourselves
There is a sentence that I always say and which constitutes the most important step of nutrition; "Diet is specific to the individual". If you do not have a chronic disease, you can determine the number of meals that are good for you and make you feel good. If you ask my advice, eat whenever your stomach growls. Because that is the moment when our growth hormones are ready to work the fastest.
3. Change your eating habits. Normalize!
Unfortunately, lately, our normality has been to eat foods that are easy for us, and we are also tempted by the fast food diet. Its beneficial effect should not be underestimated! In fact, what we call healthy eating is not very difficult, it just requires normalization. What is normalization? actually returning to balance. If we make sure that our food distribution during the day is 50-55% carbohydrates, 10-15% protein and 20-25% fat and we eat the amount of calories we need, it is very easy to maintain our body balance and weight if we do not have a chronic disease.
4. Increase your fiber consumption.
We eat, but are we eating right? If we know the fiber content of the foods we consume, we can make healthier choices. For example, have you ever thought about why they tell us that you should eat whole wheat bread? Why is bran useful? Because it contains much more fiber than normal white flour, which means fiber for us. Why is fiber necessary? We need fiber for healthier functioning intestines!
5. Find the sport that suits you!
What is the sport that suits you? It is a sport that makes you feel good and is good for both your body and soul. You can turn sports from a duty into hours of fun that you gift to yourself, if you have found the right sport.
6. Don't forget about socializing, give up bad snacks!
We are all among those who get a little lost when socializing. But we are aware that that one-day getaway affects the next few days. Now there are healthy snack options in almost every restaurant, it is no longer a problem to find what to eat, we just have to choose.
With a brief summary of 6 items, it is easy to at least step into a healthy life. Now the rest is up to you, you just have to decide. Good luck.
