Let's learn together

Healthy eating and exercise!

"Thoughts" before meals

If you are worried about eating too much, you can eat half a cucumber or drink a bowl of soup or boiled water before eating. Taking up part of the stomach capacity can reduce the calories consumed at the dinner table.

Appropriate "picky eating"

Choose meat to eat, and try to eat less meat with high fat content such as Dongpo pork and pork belly. You can use fish and shrimp instead, which are not only low in fat but also high-quality protein.

In addition, eat more vegetables, especially dark green leafy vegetables.

Adjust the order of eating, eat vegetables first, then meat. Reduce the intake of staple foods and other carbohydrates.

The following foods are good choices:

Yam

It can promote digestive function, reduce subcutaneous fat deposition, avoid obesity and enhance immune function.

sweet potato

The fiber it contains is soft and easy to digest, which can promote gastrointestinal motility and help defecation.

onion

It can promote gastrointestinal motility and enhance digestion ability. It is also particularly beneficial to the liver and helps detoxification.

celery

It contains more dietary fiber, especially ingredients that lower blood pressure , and also has the effects of lowering blood lipids and blood sugar.

Tremella

It is nourishing but not greasy, and is a good tonic. It is rich in dietary fiber, which can enhance gastrointestinal motility and reduce fat absorption.

hawthorn

Fresh hawthorn is high in vitamin C and has a good effect in removing greasiness , making it a good choice for cleansing the intestines after the holidays.

tomato

Whether it is a large tomato or a small cherry tomato, the nutritional value is roughly the same.

Tomatoes contain a lot of vitamin C. After eating too much meat and fish, eating some tomatoes can clear the stomach and intestines and relieve greasiness , and also help prevent colds that are common in early spring.

Pay attention to cooking methods

Avoid high-fat and high-salt foods . When eating, you can use a bowl of boiling water or clear soup to rinse off the grease on the surface of the food. Eat less smoked foods and pickles, and use less salt and oil when cooking.

Don't diet

When you eat less or not eat at all, your calorie consumption will also decrease. Once you resume eating, your basal metabolism, which has been reduced, will not be able to keep up , so the lost weight will come back again, or even exceed the weight before losing weight.

Exercise is essential

Diet adjustment alone is not enough, you also need to add exercise.

Attention! Exercise needs to be gradual . After a short period of high-intensity exercise, blood sugar levels will drop and cause hunger. At this time, people will have a strong appetite and are more likely to eat, which is not good for "losing weight".

Here are some simple aerobic exercises:

jump rope

It can be done immediately at any time and any place, and you can learn it immediately.

However, you must warm up before jumping rope and stretch after jumping rope. Even if you persist in jumping rope for a long time, your calf muscles will not swell excessively, but will only become appropriately firm and tight.

Climb stairs

Climbing stairs can generate body heat, enhance cardiopulmonary function, improve metabolism, speed up blood circulation throughout the body, and help metabolize fat in the thigh area. This exercise is very suitable for busy office workers , who can use their time on the way home to train on the stairs in their apartment.

Ball Games

Different ball sports consume different amounts of calories. By playing ball sports once or twice a week, you can keep your body from getting stiff.

However, please note that ball sports often involve explosive movements, which can have a greater impact on joints and muscles and can easily lead to injuries. Please warm up and relax carefully before and after exercise.
