Why do you gain weight rapidly in winter? 4 tips to keep in shape

The cold weather is perfect for curling up on the sofa in the living room to watch TV or lying on the bed to play with your phone. You can stay still if you want. Seeing this, are you nodding in agreement? Be careful, this is what causes your butt to move sideways and your jeans to get stuck at your thighs! For those of you who love to eat but are afraid of getting fat, do you have to wait until next summer to start planning to lose weight? To avoid fat accumulation in your body, start with the following 4 points!

According to information from the UK National Health Service (NHS) and the US "online doctor" website (WebMD), the following 4 points can help you keep your body from being chubby in the winter!

1. You should exercise even harder in winter!

move! move! move! The ancients said: "Born in sorrow, die in comfort." In plain words, it means: "One cannot be without a sense of crisis." When others are eating hot pot and chocolate snacks, you should use this time to exercise, while thinking about wearing nice shorts and vests next summer. This will give you more motivation to continue exercising, increase calorie burning, and you will get good results.

2. Hot drinks are the reason for the growth of fat in the lower body...

Don’t think that you only want to drink cool drinks in the summer. In the winter, you may also want some hot and sweet drinks to warm your stomach and body. For example, hot cocoa, hot mocha, and hot fruit tea (with sugar) may contain hidden calories that will definitely surprise you. In addition, the added syrup and cream not only have high calories, but also cause the desire to eat sweets; sugar is also the cause of obesity and edema in your lower body. No matter what, hot sweet drinks are a big trap in winter!

3. Drinking also makes you fat! Drinking water can reduce calories

Every year from December to the Lunar New Year, there are always many unavoidable dinner parties and festivals. In social occasions, it is inevitable to rely on alcohol to entertain and liven up the mood. Apart from the fact that the calories in the meals themselves exceed the daily requirement, alcohol is also a calorie point that few people pay attention to. Professor Scott Isaacs, a clinical lecturer at Emory University, recommends keeping a glass of water handy when drinking to keep hydrated, which can help reduce alcohol intake and calories.

4. Eat enough food before going to the party!

Carbohydrates are certainly essential nutrients for our body, but we should never get them from alcohol and desserts. Instead, we should get them from fruits and vegetables. However, which party would prepare a bunch of low-calorie and healthy fruit and vegetable salads for a gathering? For the sake of your figure, please eat an apple or a salad before going out for a meal to suppress your hunger, so as to avoid being too hungry and eating a lot at the party, and then you will regret it afterwards!
