Lose weight at the end of the year! The 2 most cost-effective weight loss tips

At the end of the year, it is a time for gift-giving and spending. Many people become "poor after the New Year". Therefore, losing weight should not increase the financial burden on the family. Below I will teach you the most cost-effective weight loss tips at the end of the year, allowing you to lose weight effectively while saving money. Come and have a look.

Exercise is the only way to lose weight successfully. For example, climbing stairs for half an hour can burn 400 to 500 calories.

1. Exercise

Method 1: Go up the stairs

At the end of the year, when visiting relatives and friends and attending various gatherings, you can give up the elevator. If you go up the stairs 3 to 4 times a week, each time for about 30 minutes, you can burn 400 to 500 calories. It also helps to strengthen and tone the calf and thigh muscles.

Method 2: Walking

Walk continuously for 20 minutes at least 3 times a week, swinging your arms and marching in place.

Method 3: Dancing

Dancing to energetic songs, especially with friends, with hand and foot dancing 3 to 4 times a week is also a good way to lose weight, but remember to warm up thoroughly to prevent sprains. It is enough to jump for about 20 minutes each time, and you can do some bigger movements.

Method 4: Riding a bicycle

3 or 4 times a week, each time lasting half an hour, will give your body enough exercise and consume an average of 10 calories per minute.

2. Bathing

Orange bath promotes metabolism

This year you might as well try taking a citrus bath. Citrus pulp is rich in vitamin C, and the juice contains a large amount of organic acids such as tartaric acid, malic acid, succinic acid, etc. The orange peel and juice have aromatherapy therapeutic effects such as orange peel essential oil, which is very helpful for restoring spirits and promoting smooth blood circulation.

Soaking method: Cut 5 to 6 oranges into round slices and put them into hot water for a bath.

Chrysanthemum bath calms the mind and relieves pain

During the Chinese New Year, many families will display a few pots of chrysanthemums. Before the flowers wither, make good use of them to relieve back pain and muscle fatigue. Each chrysanthemum contains aromatic essential oils that can promote blood circulation.

Soaking method: Take 3 chrysanthemum petals, chop them into pieces and put them in a cotton bag, add water and boil them into fragrant flower juice; pour the chrysanthemum bag and the fragrant flower juice into a hot water bath and soak your body for 20 to 30 minutes.

Apple meal for bowel cleansing and weight loss

Apples contain soluble fiber pectin, which has the effect of strengthening the stomach and intestines. Soaking apples directly in hot water can eliminate physical fatigue. Apples are low-calorie and high-nutrition food. Many people rely on eating them alone to lose weight. One apple has only 60 calories, which is of course much lower than the calories in a regular meal! However, nutritionists do not recommend that you eat apple meals for a long time to lose weight, because it may cause nutritional imbalance. Once you stop eating, your weight may rebound quickly.

Drink green tea to lose fat and lose weight

When you visit someone’s home to wish them a happy new year, tea will definitely be served to you. This is also a good opportunity to lose weight! Green tea contains no calories, so you don't have to worry about getting fat no matter how much you drink. Drinking a cup of green tea and taking a walk outside or doing two or three exercises can have a slimming effect, which is more powerful than oolong tea!

Mushroom bath removes fat and fatigue

Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is always complete without delicacies such as mushrooms and seafood. Speaking of mushrooms, I believe many people know that it is an expert in fat removal in the weight loss diet, because mushrooms contain zero calories, and can promote the body's metabolism, excrete aging substances, and prevent obesity; using dried mushrooms to make tea can also remove fat! If your feet are sore and your muscles are tired from visiting relatives and friends during the New Year, you might want to use shiitake mushrooms and take a hot bath in a tub. This is because shiitake mushrooms contain amino acids that accelerate blood circulation. After soaking, all your fatigue will disappear.

Soaking method: First cut 3 to 5 dried mushrooms into slices and soak them in 2 liters of water overnight. Then pour the water used to soak the mushrooms into a tank and mix it with hot water for bathing. To achieve better results in eliminating muscle fatigue, you can put the soaked mushroom slices into a small bag, tie it tightly, and then place it in a jar to make the mushroom flavor stronger.

Red wine bath for beauty and slimming

You can use the leftover red wine from the New Year’s Eve dinner to take a bath to warm your body and lose weight. When taking a bath, the high temperature of the hot water will expand the pores of the body, and the alcohol will immediately enter under the epidermis to stimulate the capillaries, helping the body's blood circulation to be smooth. Red wine contains tannins, which can tighten loose skin and also have beauty effects. Many Japanese women are in love with red wine baths. In addition to the noble purple-red bath water and bursts of rich aroma that can relieve mental stress, the most important thing is that it can keep the body in shape and make the skin white and smooth!

Soaking method: Pour 750 ml of red wine into a tub of warm water, stir well and take a bath. Or you can follow the example of Japanese actress Norika Fujiwara and wipe your body with a towel while showering. The slimming effect will be more obvious!
