Avoid dietary errors during the holidays!

Errors or blunders that affect our food during the holidays are not always what we believe ... A review of what is important not to do to remain light during the holidays.

First error during the holidays: guilty to excess

Guilt is never a good solution to the regime. On the contrary, if you have any excess food, guilt will depress you, discourage you and make you more likely to crack if you tend to eat according to your emotions.

Accept that the holidays are a special time of the year in which it is socially saw to make generous feast, you can better experience the potential excesses of guilt without weighing you down.

Also note the excesses relative food in question: we do not talk finally, at most, only a half dozen very generous meals, and more. On the scale of a year is not enormous.

Second error during the holidays: to deprive

In the same vein, try to stand up to the delights that come before you is not a very constructive exercise.

First, it will probably spoil some of the party, especially if people realize that you are "the regime".

The holiday season is the opportunity to share festive meals. Do not follow this rule of the game can sometimes, depending on the sensitivity of those around you, put you in line. What's more, the frustration can lead to real crackings: eat a quarter of an hour the box of chocolates that you received from your friend is worse than take a portion of log, for example!

Note nonetheless that if go without drastically is against-productive, eating on principle.

Third error during the holidays: forget the good things!

The right things? It's chocolate and smoked salmon, certainly, but also Brussels sprouts cooked to perfection, a crisp salad decorated with small pieces of fruit, endive braised to perfection, fresh tangerine or in the middle of the post afternoon.

There is no reason why a festive meal is synonymous with complete nutritional imbalance. During the holiday season, have fun also means vegetables or fruits!

Fourth error during the holidays: force the drink

The drink is a double enemy to those who seek to maintain a balanced diet during the holidays:

•    It contains a lot of calories.
•    It is wrong to advise all the choices, food and more!

How to reduce your drinking? Drink at least a glass of water between two glasses of wine or other alcohol. If you receive, be generous with the water, and possibly present it in a carafe, with a few slices of lemon or a sprig of mint, to make it more festive.

Fifth error during the holidays: stay glued to the sofa

Yes it's cold outside, but to walk an hour with his family before returning to drink a hot drink all together is a great pleasure. Do not deprive yourself!
