                     Ziqitza Limited Rajasthan - How to keep the 
Holiday weight gain down this year
Holiday weight gain may appear unavoidable, considering that 
we frequently put our good practices on hold until January. But 
developing a plan to avoid it could swing the balance in your 
favour over the course of your life, not just in the coming year. 
Ziqitza Healthcare Ltd, one of India’s leading healthcare 
service providers, points out that studies show that we often 
gain 1 to 2 pounds during the holiday season and do not lose 
them. Ever. That means we start each year a few pounds 
heavier, which over several years can mount up.
 
But all is not lost, gaining weight is absolutely in our control. 
We can choose to follow healthy practices and curb weight 
gain during the holidays. Ziqitza lists down a few tips that 
might help avoid weight gain during the holiday season.
Keep doing exercise: Exercise is one of the first things to slip 
when holiday activities pick up and we're getting ready for some 
time away from the office, according to Ziqitza Healthcare. Put in 
what you can, even if you don't have time for a one-hour bike 
class or your usual yoga session. Exercise offers many 
psychological and physical advantages, and data indicates that it 
can offset some of the metabolic impacts of overeating, even if it 
cannot completely offset the excess calories you are taking in. 
When it comes to exercising, avoid having an all-or-nothing 
attitude and instead do what you can when you can, even if that 
only entails a brief routine in your living room. A friend could be 
extremely beneficial. According to Ziqitza Rajasthan, there is 
scientific proof that doing so results in increased exercise, 
especially if the workout companion offers encouragement and 
support. So go for a simple walk with a friend or schedule a 
weekly class date. Have a virtual check-in if you can't meet up in 
person to motivate one another to keep going.
Snack Wisely: You probably don't enjoy all holiday 
foods equally, so think about which ones are 
worthwhile to you and which ones you could do 
without (or at least, live with just a little bit). To put 
it another way, it's acceptable to have one or two 
food thrills while enjoying the mashed potatoes, 
stuffing, pies, fruitcake, eggnog, gingerbread 
cookies, and other holiday goodies, but choose 
which ones are deserving of a place on your plate 
and do it with awareness. If you enjoy stuffing, try a 
spoonful; but, if apple pie isn't your thing, you 
might want to skip it or only eat a small amount.
Drink Wisely: When drinking alcohol, your inhibitions 
can be weakened, so even if you may have planned to 
pass on the baked brie, a few drinks may convince you 
otherwise. Additionally, according to Ziqitza Limited, 
alcohol can make it difficult to sleep, which can affect 
your hunger and food preferences. It can also leave you 
with a reminder the next day (hello, hangover), which 
may also influence your food preferences. Have you ever 
been sober and desired lush greens? Stick to the 
suggested daily limits of one drink for women and two 
for men and try to stay away from sugary mixers, which, 
among other things, can increase alcohol's effects.
Take note of your hunger cues: According to ZHL Rajasthan, it's 
equally vital to pay attention to when you're feeling satisfied as it 
is to avoid showing up to a holiday event starving. Midway 
through your meal, it's a good idea to check in with yourself and 
record how you're feeling. If you feel full, then it is not required 
to finish everything on your plate simply because it is there. 
Respect your body by not pushing it past fullness once you've 
reached a point of satisfaction.
Go back to healthy habits: You have two options after each 
party: keep eating holiday stuff or go back to your regular 
routine. A single holiday meal is nothing to worry about, but 
having two, three, four, or five can result in weight gain. During 
the holidays, there will inevitably be some large dinners and 
decadent treats, but there is no reason why there can't also be 
nutritious and lighter meals in between.
Weigh yourself: Ziqitza Limited Rajasthan states that weight 
monitoring can be a very efficient strategy to prevent weight gain 
because it can be difficult to notice when you've put on a pound or 
two, but your scale can pick up these minor gains.
