Losing weight for the New Year - life hacks for a slim figure

Liz Hurley eats from baby dishes to control how much she eats. Demi Moore eats only raw foods, including meat, and uses leeches to speed up her metabolism. Before the cherished event, participants in American beauty pageants begin to coat supposedly problem areas of the body with ointment for hemorrhoids (yes, the miracle remedy is applied not only under the eyes to tighten the skin, but do not try to repeat this - it is dangerous for blood vessels). Wanting to lose weight or not gain excess weight, even fit beauties go to great lengths - to the horror of nutritionists and representatives of official medicine. The latter never tire of repeating: to lose excess weight, you don’t need to go to extremes and expect miracles from extreme diets, magic pills or ointments. Losing weight is a complex process that includes a balanced diet, physical activity, and the use of cosmetics. It's banal, no one argues. But it definitely works.

What to eat to lose weight

Rice, chocolate, buckwheat... These diets are popular both in Russia and abroad (except that buckwheat is not such a popular product in Europe and America). They provide an effect, but it is short-lived. And only due to the removal of excess fluid from the body due to the refusal of salt. To literally fit into a dress one size smaller in just a few days – that’s it. However, you should not think that in a week, or even less, the lost kilograms will not return to their rightful place. They'll be back soon! If you don’t set yourself the goal of losing weight seriously and for a long time, go for it. If you want a sustainable result, reconsider your eating habits and think over a balanced diet, which will contain proteins, fats, and carbohydrates.

Losing weight little by little, without going to extremes, is boring for many. Even Gwyneth Paltrow, who actively promotes the ideas of harmonious nutrition on her website goop.com, will go on a two-week “fast” only on vegetable juices. Weight loss is guaranteed, but the body is seriously depleted. In addition, psychologists believe that harsh restrictions deprive us of the joy of life and the sparkle in our eyes. You shouldn’t forget about this if you’re planning to lose a few kilos before the New Year on some dreary mono-diet. The mood is unlikely to be festive. And the body will insidiously take revenge for the deprivation, putting aside everything eaten at the New Year's table in the form of fat - so that you have something to “get hold of” if you decide to go hungry again. Everyone knows this. But what to do? Use tricks.

Ideal figure for the New Year

The most important thing you need to do is reconsider your diet. But please don’t throw yourself into the pool headlong, going on half-starvation diets and don’t go on a hunger strike. This won't lead to anything good. And if it does, it won’t be for long, and by New Year you definitely won’t fit into your outfit. Because everyone knows that these methods, upon completion, bring with them an additional couple of kilograms. Everyone knows this, but they still do it their own way. That's how we are made.

Still, I want to offer you something more practical. It is very important to include breakfast in your menu. And if you didn’t have it at all, then you don’t need to wake up and eat the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and compote. Enough to eat something light.

It can be yogurt (only without adding fruit), it is better to buy regular yogurt and cut fresh fruit into it yourself, it will be much healthier. Before starting breakfast, I advise you to drink a glass of plain water - this is recommended by many nutritionists.

You can also make yourself a youth cocktail: take a glass of clean water (you can even melt it), add 1-2 teaspoons of honey and a few drops of lemon juice. Then you can make yourself a rejuvenating porridge.

Take 2 tablespoons of oatmeal, pour 4 tbsp. spoons of cool water and leave overnight. In the morning, add a small green apple to the oatmeal, 1 tsp. honey, a few walnuts (others can be added if desired), you can also add raisins, dried apricots, everything is done to taste. It is advisable to soak raisins and dried apricots in water for a couple of hours in advance. Your porridge of youth is ready.

In the morning I really like to eat buckwheat. I also soak it in water overnight, and in the morning I put it in the microwave for a couple of minutes, without adding oil or salt, I can add a few spices.

(It’s better to try to exclude salt altogether, because it retains water. And we don’t need this at all. Try to gradually move away from this amount of salt in the future, because it interrupts the real taste of the food. Try salting the finished dish first, and then gradually avoid salt.)

I like to add a little soy sauce to buckwheat, but this is not for everyone. You can also cut yourself a salad from any vegetables (cabbage, carrots, tomatoes, cucumbers, bell peppers, greens), in general, your imagination and your tastes should work here. You can season the salad with a spoonful of low-fat sour cream or yogurt, or a little olive oil + a few drops of lemon juice.

Tip: a salad dressed with oil is much higher in calories than one dressed with sour cream or yogurt. But we also need oil in our diet, fats should also be present on our table every day, and there is no need to exclude them at all. Just find a balance.

If you ate a salad with butter in the morning, do without it in the evening and steam the vegetables. And, conversely, if you had sour cream in the morning, then in the evening or at lunch you can stew the vegetables with the addition of 1 tablespoon of oil. And since fats are not only found in oil, 1 tbsp. A spoon a day is enough.

In the morning you can prepare an omelette for yourself: 2 whites, 1 yolk, a little milk, tomato, bell pepper, herbs, zucchini, onion. Cooking recipe: Fry onion, zucchini, bell pepper, tomato. Beat eggs with milk. Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables, cover and simmer for 5 minutes.

For breakfast, you can simply use a boiled egg with a salad or just a fresh tomato.

Another breakfast recipe: mix cottage cheese, sour cream, honey and various berries. Breakfast is ready!!!

Recommended products for breakfast: dairy (yogurt, cottage cheese, kefir, fermented baked milk, maybe a little cheese, add it to an omelette or on a sandwich, only dietary, without a thick piece of sausage and the same layer of butter), porridge (oatmeal, buckwheat, less often rice, It’s better not to use semolina), eggs and of course a variety of vegetables, fruits, and berries. You can also snack on fruits during your second breakfast; they are convenient to take to work and will help you last until lunch.

So, it's time for lunch. This is the only time of the day when you can even indulge in the forbidden. But don’t get carried away, remember the main goal. You definitely need to eat meat. It is advisable if it is lean fish (tuna, mackerel) or chicken breast, without skin, without mayonnaise and similar additions.

You can afford beef less often, but only without excess fat and boiled. I do not recommend eating pork. You can add 2-3 tbsp to the meat. side dish, it can be: rice (brown), buckwheat, couscous, pearl barley, pasta (do not forget on the package it should say made from durum varieties), it is better not to use potatoes with meat, because This is a complete mismatch of products.

If you want potatoes, it is better to boil them in their skins and eat them only with vegetables. For lunch, you can allow a large portion of fresh vegetable salad. Instead of a side dish, you can take 1-2 slices of bread (made from wholemeal flour), I use Oka bread.

For lunch, you can eat a portion of soup, but vegetarian, and not with fatty meat broth. Do not mix soup with the main meal; it is better to eat it separately or for dinner. During this period, you should try to reduce portions, eat small portions, preferably 5-6 times a day. This will help you avoid overeating and starving.

Don’t skip such a meal as an afternoon snack; many people probably don’t take it into account. But in vain, because it will help you not to overeat at night and not overeat for dinner.

For an afternoon snack, you can even treat yourself a little. The main thing is not to forget about the serving size, because this is not the main meal, but just a snack. Products that you can use: it can be a glass of yogurt, a jar of cottage cheese, dried fruits (raisins, dried apricots, prunes, apples, pears), do not confuse only dried fruits and candied fruits (mainly candied pineapples, melons, apples, tangerines, etc. .), all kinds of nuts (walnuts, cashews, almonds, hazelnuts, peanuts).

Try not to mix everything at once in one go and do not forget that they are all very high in calories and each has a different degree of calorie content, peanuts are less high in calories, you can also use peanut butter by spreading it in a thin layer on a small piece of bread, you can eat a couple of fruits, even let get yourself a small banana (everyone knows that it is one of the most high-calorie fruits, but do not forget about its benefits, especially since it is better than eating a piece of cake or a chocolate bar).

You can make yourself a couple of sandwiches (we use bread or crispbread (made from wholemeal flour), add lettuce, tomato, sprinkle with grated cheese and you’re done, you can use any vegetables, you can also make a sweet sandwich: take the same bread/bread and top it put pieces of any fruit (apples, pears, bananas, kiwi, etc., you can pour a little honey or jam syrup), you can also afford a couple of oatmeal cookies with green tea, less often marshmallows, marmalade.

In general, there is a lot of room for choice and you can create a different menu every day. And this is the key to success, because... We get used to monotonous food, and often because of this we overeat. It’s better to try this a little bit, then a little bit of that, and you’ll already be full with a much smaller portion.

Dinner time. Do not rush to immediately pounce on food when you arrive home. First, do your homework. You will notice that gradually your hunger will dull and you will not have to eat five times a night. Of course, it would be better if your dinner takes place between 17.00-19.00 no later.

If you arrive home around 21.00-22.00, then my advice is to eat something more substantial than a sandwich for an afternoon snack, and at 21.00 get by with a glass of kefir, you can add 1 oatmeal cookie (the least calorie of all cookies) or 1 piece of bread, you can eat a couple of apples, well, if you are really hungry, then make yourself a portion of salad.

For those who have dinner between 17.00-19.00, they can treat themselves to fish baked in foil or boiled, without adding oil. Or any side dish of your choice: pasta (but avoid fatty sauces, better add stewed vegetables), rice, buckwheat, potatoes, in general, your choice.

Every day a new dish. And a portion of vegetable salad. Or you can put them out. Dairy products can also be an option for dinner. You can even make yourself a low-calorie casserole. Ingredients: 0.5 kg of cottage cheese (you can buy store-bought), 1 egg, a little semolina (to hold the dough together, but it should not be thick or too liquid), 150 ml. milk, citrus zest, raisins or dried apricots, vanillin.

Recipe: pour milk over semolina and let stand for half an hour. Grind the cottage cheese and egg, add zest, vanillin, dried fruits. Mix with semolina and milk. Grease the mold with butter and sprinkle with breadcrumbs or semolina. Place the curd mass in the mold and bake until done at a temperature of 180-200 degrees for 30-40 minutes. You can serve with honey, jam or low-fat sour cream/yogurt. An excellent option for both breakfast and dinner.

If you are very hungry, after dinner you can allow yourself a glass of kefir around 20.00-21.00. And remember a very important rule: you should not eat 3-4 hours before bedtime, and you should not drink any liquid an hour before bedtime.

Tips with meaning

Weight loss recipes from celebrities are often strange. But some of them make sense. The same children's plates from which Liz Hurley and Victoria Beckham eat are a way out for those who are used to finishing everything, but want to limit the amount of food (the main thing is that the dishes are not yellow or red, which stimulate appetite).

Another useful tip is to sit down to the holiday table well-fed. It sounds unappealing, but this strategy pays off. You'll enjoy the treats, but you'll eat less. What do you think Hollywood stars put in their clutches when going to ceremonies and gala dinners? Nuts and dried fruits to snack on periodically and not overindulge in high-calorie canapés. It’s a good idea to remember this when going to a corporate event or New Year’s party.

If you can’t play sports (without which high-quality weight loss is impossible), take every opportunity to move. Nutritionists give a lot of advice - from walking for many hours in parks/museums/shopping centers to walking up the stairs. By the way, it’s better not to climb them, but to go down them - there’s less strain on the heart. Even Jennifer Lopez, who regularly goes to the gym, prefers not to use the elevator (unless, of course, we are talking about going up or down from the 50th floor). They say that her assistant always has a pair of ballet shoes with her, so that the diva can quickly change her Louboutans and run downstairs. Again, a great exercise for stimulating the hips and buttocks.

New Years is soon! You need to cheer yourself up, feel light in your body and most importantly lose weight! LPG hardware massage will help you without dieting.

Help from outside

Weight loss creams can also help in the fight for slimness. You shouldn’t expect too much from them, but when combined with proper nutrition and exercise, they give results. The main principle of action is active drainage and improvement of microcirculation of the skin, which, under the influence of creams or gels, is smoothed, tightened, and strengthened. As a result, the contours of the body become clearer. Using creams is vital for those who do not intend to limit themselves to a couple of kilos. The products will help prevent sagging skin.

The composition of creams with the Slim prefix is ​​constantly being improved. In addition to traditional algae, which helps strengthen blood vessels and remove toxins, there are a lot of other equally effective ingredients. For example, white tea extract, which not only reduces the number of fat cells, but also prevents their further appearance (gel-cream “My Silhouette!”, Nivea). Some products also contain reflective particles that give the skin a soft glow (sculpting gel-cream Slimissime 360, Lancome). It seems like a trifle, but the owner of such a product will like her own reflection in the mirror much more. Improving your silhouette with this attitude is much more enjoyable.

Tricks

The effectiveness of modeling products increases if you use them after a contrast shower. The procedure activates metabolic processes, accelerates skin circulation and improves metabolism. It is believed that contrast showers slowly but surely help you lose weight.

It is best to apply corrective products to well-exfoliated skin: creams are better absorbed. Peeling should be done two to three times a week.

It’s a good idea to get a loofah washcloth. It will provide additional exfoliation of the skin while washing.

Essential oils of tangerine, lemon balm and juniper help remove toxins, improve digestion and reduce cellulite. They can be used for home wraps (make sure you are not allergic to the oils by applying behind your ear or on the crook of your elbow and waiting a couple of hours).

The aroma of grapefruit has been scientifically proven to suppress appetite. Nutritionists advise carrying a little grapefruit oil with you in a mini-bottle and periodically inhaling it when you feel the urge to eat something wrong.
