Eat without bitter holidays

[Jultxxxyes]

To enjoy the fritters, turkey and custard, and not feel guilty with every bite, the key is to take care of the diet a few days before the holidays

Christmas is coming and, with it, celebrations, friends, family, joy and, above all, food and drink. That is, lurks the danger that we gain weight and that our beginning of the year is a depressive ordeal. For this reason, I have written this text: to give some recommendations well in advance and thus help to keep the holidays from getting bitter.

20 days before: protein and vegetables

We will start about 20 days before entering fully into the Christmas season. Let's consume these days only proteins and vegetables. Let's make the small effort to suppress the flour of the day. Once we enter the holiday period, we will recover it. And when the carbohydrates return, the ideal is that we only eat one serving a day, at breakfast or at lunch. At breakfast, because it is the most important meal of the day, which gives us the energy to start with vitality. It is also valid at lunch. And we give you advice for those who do not feel they have eaten without flour: cut the portion in two; that is, half bread on waking and half potato at noon.

What should be the amount of flour? It is easy to calculate: close your fist-shaped hand. That fist is just the size of the flour portion. Let's avoid flour at all costs at night, since it is difficult to burn those calories when we are sleeping

Termo ‘love yourself’: diuretic and nutritional

We will boil a good amount of water (three to four liters) with pineapple peels, previously washed. We remove the shells and let it cool. Then we add some leaves and some celery stalks and leave it in the fridge. With it we will fill our thermos. We have the combination of two magnificent diuretics: pineapple and celery.

To our thermos we can add lemon, which gives flavor. We can also add a teaspoon of coffee, another of chia seeds and one last of flaxseed, to keep the digestion at one hundred percent. Chia also has an enormous nutritional value: five times more calcium than milk and three times more iron than spinach. Apart from that, it has the ability to absorb about ten times its weight in water, so it enters our stomach like a jelly and makes us feel full.

The last secret trick is a teaspoon of baking soda in the morning. And another important thing: as we empty the thermos, every time we reach the middle we must fill it with the water that we have reserved in the fridge. The goal is to drink six to eight thermoses in the day.

If in addition to that, in the morning and in the afternoon we have green tea, we will keep the body clean and hunger and excesses will decrease. That tea will help everything we eat to be processed much faster. If you don't love green tea, we give you a choice: add both bags to the thermos.

The fruit of 11:00 and the shake ‘love yourself’ to sleep

These days the laxative fruit is also key, which we will consume at 11:00 in the morning. These are some that we can alternate: the pitaya, the papaya, the plum or the granadilla. It is important that it is not the same every day.

Before sleeping, let's have a spectacular milkshake. Ginger has a thermogenic effect, that is, it increases the temperature of the body, which, in turn, works like a thermostat: when it feels very hot, the temperature decreases. For the organism to do this, it takes advantage of the accumulated fat.

For this reason, we prepare a good ginger smoothie, we will liquefy it with cucumber, a green apple, carrot, crystals of aloe and lemon. That will be the bomb we will take before bed. As soon as we woke up, a little water with lemon juice, fasting. Follow these tips and the holidays will not "weigh" you too much.
