While traveling, probably each of us strives to taste a variety of national dishes – and as many as possible.
As a result, we return home not alone, but with a reserve deposited on the waist and hips. Fortunately, if you follow a few simple rules, you will be able to try national cuisine and not gain excess weight.
Don't go on a diet before your vacation
To feel confident on the beach and look great in photos, many people go on a diet before going to the sea. This is not worth doing because strict restrictions often lead to breakdowns.
The more restrictions you impose on your diet, the more likely you are to overeat during your vacation. To lose weight, it is enough to increase your vegetable consumption and drink more water.
Ditch the all-inclusive system
Many hotels have an all-inclusive system, which will require you to brace yourself against your desires, because there will be plenty of delicious and affordable food around.
It is better to choose a room with breakfast and have lunch and dinner in nearby cafes and restaurants. This way you will not depend on the hotel and will be able to get acquainted with the local cuisine and culture.
Drink water
It is necessary to drink enough water, firstly, to maintain water balance, and secondly, to avoid overeating, since people often confuse hunger with thirst.
If you're not sure what your body is experiencing, try drinking a glass of water. If the discomfort in your stomach or throat goes away, you're probably just thirsty.
Experts recommend getting into the habit of drinking water 5-15 minutes before meals to fill the stomach and reduce the amount of food consumed.
