Almost every individual who is overweight looks for a way to lose weight as they enter the summer months. Some people find the right formula, apply it and continue their life at their ideal weight. Some people ended their weight loss adventure by getting carried away by barbecues, ice cream, invitations and celebrations. As summer months end and winter months show their face, it is the right time to get rid of your excess weight from the summer season. All plants that herald the winter months help you get rid of your summer weight. So how?
1. Let's start with herbal teas. Scientific studies have proven the metabolism-accelerating effect of herbal teas, which are indispensable in diets, if consumed regularly, on average, 2 cups a day. However, each herbal tea has its own benefits. Ginger, linden and sage help purify the body from toxins due to their high antioxidant content. Ginger provides blood sugar regulation and creates a long-term feeling of fullness. Cinnamon, which has been the subject of many scientific studies for years, is one of the miracles of recent years. Keeping blood sugar balanced, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon consumed with milk or yoghurt at the last snack before going to bed in diabetes helps to regulate blood sugar in the short term. With this effect, it provides hunger control and reduces the tendency for sweets. Consuming an average of 2 cups of herbal tea per day for every healthy individual is important to support weight loss. You can try the herbal tea recipe to speed up your metabolism: Ingredients: 1 teaspoon of black pepper, 1 lemon, 1 cinnamon stick, 1 teaspoon of green tea, 1 piece (2-3 grams) of ginger, 1 teaspoon of sage in 1 liter of boiled water. Add and let it brew. Consume during the day.
2. During winter months, the tendency towards foods with high fat and carbohydrate content increases. So be careful about your food choices at meals. While the creamy chicken pasta and coke you choose for a dinner contains 920 calories, grilled chicken, broccoli salad, 2 thin slices of bread and ayran contain 510 calories, or a portion of whole wheat pasta with basil sauce and ayran contains 360 calories. Even if you just change your dinner habit, you can lose 1.5-2 kg of weight per month. It will be inevitable.
3. Let's talk about winter vegetables... Broccoli, leek, cabbage, celery, artichoke, chard and many more... All of them have very high fiber content. In addition to strengthening the immune system, winter vegetables provide long-term satiety thanks to the fiber they contain and prevent excessive food consumption. During the winter months, be sure to consume one meal of cooked seasonal vegetables a day. Choose winter soups to speed up your metabolism and prepare for the winter season. A winter soup recipe; Wash 2 cloves of garlic, 1 small onion, the root and stem of 1 small celery, 3 leeks, 2 small zucchinis, and 6-7 chard leaves thoroughly and place them in a deep pot. Add 1-2 liters of water and boil it. Once it starts to boil, cook it in a pressure cooker over low heat for 10 minutes. After the vegetables are cooked, remove them from the heat, add 2 cups of skim milk and blend them. You can serve it by adding iodized salt, chili pepper, black pepper, mint and lemon. Drinking 1-2 scoops before meals twice a week will help you lose weight due to its low calories, high fiber content, and high antioxidant properties. In addition, while a bowl of tripe soup you prefer before your meal contains 250-300 calories, 1 bowl of this winter soup contains 60-70 calories.
4. If you are one of those who say never without dessert; The winter season offers us very nice alternatives for dessert. A slice of pumpkin dessert baked with low sugar, served with 1 crushed walnut, is 100-120 calories. The best alternative to pumpkin dessert is quince dessert, which is 140-150 calories per portion, and 20 grams of chocolate containing at least 70% cocoa, with a serving of 100 calories. It will happen. However, 1 portion of profiterole contains approximately 500 calories.
5. Do not remain inactive due to the effects of cold weather. Incorporate walking and exercise into your life, remembering that it not only helps you achieve the ideal weight, but also has a protective effect against cancer, strengthens your immune system, regulates your digestive system, has a soothing effect, and regulates blood pressure. Be sure to walk or exercise for at least 30 minutes every day. Stay active, stay fit, stay fit.
It's not your weight, it's your clothes. May it be a winter where your warmth surrounds you.
