Lifehacks from a nutritionist: how not to gain in the New Year?

Five simple rules that will allow you to indulge yourself at the festive table without harm to the figure.

More often than not, the New Year’s feast becomes a real challenge for those who are watching their weight. Fatty dishes, salads dressed with mayonnaise, alcoholic drinks – all this is hardly good for the figure. But do not be upset: there is a way out! Together with nutritionist and nutritionist Anna Berseneva, we have compiled a list of lifehacks that will allow you not to drive yourself into rigid limits at the holiday table and rejoice in a great feeling of well-being and reflection in the mirror the next morning.

Replace fatty sauces with healthy ones

The first rule – pay attention to sauces. It is in them that the main dangers lie! Sugar, syrup, artificial flavors and dyes – all this and more we will find in the composition of sauces, which are painted on the shelves of supermarkets. What is the way out of this situation? Prepare healthy sauces, with which salads will become even tastier and will not turn into extra centimeters in the waist and a feeling of heaviness. Yes, it will take time, but the guests will definitely be impressed, and your body will thank you for the right decision.

One of the low-calorie and yet delicious sauces is sesame sauce. We share with you his quick recipe.

Съставки:

• Sesame oil – 100g;
• Soy sauce – 50g;
• Apple cider vinegar – 50g;
• Fresh ginger juice – 10g;
• A pinch of curry spice;
• A pinch of pink or sea salt;
• A pinch of ground black pepper.

Приготвяне:

Whisk all the ingredients with a whisk or fork. And you’re all set!

Do not drink cold water with your food

And another equally important tip about water. Under no circumstances should you wash down your food with cold water, especially with ice. Believe me, it’s a real challenge for our metabolism.

Do not forget about fiber

Start your dinner with a salad of green leaves: spinach, arugula, korn, iceberg or kale will do. Dress the light dish with olive oil and lemon juice. You can add apple unrefined vinegar. This way you will create the right “cushion” of fiber before the upcoming feast.

And, most importantly, eat everything with pleasure and in great company!
