I always find it ironic that people spend all of spring
working out and eating healthily, in the effort to look decent in their swimming
costume. However, as soon as December arrives it all goes downhill with the drinking every day, the abundance of mince pies, the full roasts and cream
laden desserts. These tempting treats
all add up to additional calories. The
festive season usually means eating healthily no longer becomes a priority.
Here are some useful
tips to beat the bulge,especially if you still want to fit into your skinny jeans come
January:
Try and limit alcoholic drinks and drink water in between.
Also know that creamy drinks like Eggnog are calorie laden, stick to clear
spirits or wine spritzers.
Avoid eating too much fried food such as roast potatoes,
instead fill up on salads and lean meats such as turkey and chicken. Limit
Gravy and creamy sauces as they are high in calories and fat.
Try and work out in the morning as then you will feel more
energised and set for the day to do things like your Christmas shopping. You
will also be less likely to over indulge when you have had a good workout.
Happy holidays. Let’s make this a healthy one, so our New
Year’s resolution doesn't have to be a new diet!
