CHRISTMAS is synonymous to parties, banquets, dinners, festivity. These gatherings translate to fats and calories which end up either as excess weight baggage, higher sugar level, among many other health discomforts brought about by taking so much of everything.
There’s nothing wrong with parties, banquets, dinners and festivities for as long our intakes are moderate, meaning it does not go beyond what may pose as health risk on our part.
We can always enjoy the holiday season attending all this gathering where sumptuous and mouthwatering food stuffs are offered to everyone’s delight. Christmas need not be a diet-wrecker.
Consider Useful Tips
There are lots of tips as to how to get by Christmas season without growing fat, adding up weight (expanded waistlines and bloated bellies) or developing discomforts brought about by overeating or excessive drinking.
Imagine how much calorie one could actually get in just one sitting, and to think that is just one of the many gatherings that we intend to grace as part of the holiday celebration.
These useful tips (which we could find in periodicals, magazines and even in the internet) are not designed to keep you away from enjoyment. They are simply meant to remind you on the need to watch your diet and your health in general.
Dining Delight
Seeing a dining table serving platters filled with sumptuous (more often than not, greasy ones or those containing high level of carbohydrates) dishes and mouthwatering desserts, is simply tempting or at times irresistible.
We can actually get to taste them all. We should however know how to take it with moderation. A little of this and that on your plate is good enough. It is not advisable to go back for a second serving even if the host would not really mind us doing it.
After all, it’s a feast.
It is improper and a sore sight to see people filling up plate so full and eat as if we haven’t had any meal in three days. Admittedly, Christmas is one occasion where we find it extremely difficult to watch our diet. More often than not, we get to break our diet regimen because food is literally everywhere during this time of the year.
There is always an alternative to our cravings. Take fruits instead of oily foods, carbohydrate rich pasta, cookies and cakes.
Drink to Death
Alcoholic beverages and sodas would always be around during Christmas and the holiday parties that come along with the occasion. During this time of the year, even social drinkers end up drinking more than what is generally considered as a social drink. They end up drunk. They must have taken more than what their senses could actually tolerate.
It is an open secret that more road accidents happen during the wee hours of the Christmas season. More often than not, those who figured in these accidents are intoxicated. A significant percentage of these individuals come from gatherings where they had drinking sessions.
On top of the risk of road accidents, excessive alcohol intake also has other repercussions, which include bloated bellies and damage to the liver. We can always ignore all these reminders, unless we wanted more Christmases to come for us. GP
