late-night parties, no worries. Vacation is intended to recharge our bodies and
minds. But be careful ... that existed during these routines may have to make
your life healthy, so when you return from vacation, besides souvenirs and
photo files in your camera, you also carry extra kilos in your body. Of course
you can continue your fitness program during the holidays, but do not worry
about it. There are many ways to avoid those extra pounds.
Forget the Diet
On a diet when you do not want to count calories and
burdened with special dishes will only make you stressed and over-eating, but
that's not your holiday destination. Do not do or start dieting at the time of
your vacation. In contrast, so you avoid gaining weight, try to reduce food
portions and choose foods more carefully.

Fluid Consumption
Before you order a main course, order a salad first.
Vegetables are low-calorie foods, low fat and nutrient dense. In addition, the
fiber contained in vegetables, the stomach will feel full faster. You can be
more prudent in ordering a main meal, or maybe sharing your holiday with
friends. Also, bring water bottle will help you meet the needs of body fluids.
Hunger that arise before a meal can be overcome by consuming plenty of water.
Lazy bring drink bottles everywhere? Choose juice or tea without sugar to
release your thirst.
Do Skipping Meals
Often times, the activities carried out during mealtime
mess up your vacation. Avoid skipping meals so that you are not hungry eyes at
the next meal. Ceramic by filling the stomach with healthy snacks (fresh fruit
or fruit juice and vegetables is the right choice) if one meal displaced.
Active (Physical)
During the Holidays
Although vacation and not have to follow a regular pattern
of exercises does not mean you do not need to actively work out of the body.
Walking or cycling to reach your holiday destination close to already play a
role in maintaining body fitness and reduce the accumulated calories. If you
plan on sunbathing or leyeh-leyeh alongside a pond, try to swim a few laps
before or afterwards. Take advantage of existing facilities for the playing
field with other family teman-teman/anggota (football / throwing a ball,
playing baseball or Frisbee, other than beneficial to make the body move also
strengthens the relationship between friends / family members).
Keep an eye on
Alcohol Consumption
Partying all night not a reason to continue drinking
alcohol even though you do not have to drive afterwards. Keep in mind that
alcohol (in addition intoxicants of course!) But high in calories that can add
weight, it also keeps the body hydrated. Try to consume water between your
alcoholic drinks.
Avoid fatty foods or
high calorie
Invitations to eat while on vacation may not be able to
get away. So that you do not go crazy when you eat, you can fill the stomach
first before coming to the party with a fiber-rich foods like fruit and salads.
With the appetite for a more controlled, you avoid filling the stomach with
blind. When you visit a place, try to taste the local kulinari. If you eat in a
restaurant, choose foods that are low in fat or cooked by boiled, steamed or
baked. If you have to entertain or bring food for potluck, replace the use of
milk with low fat milk or yogurt.
