How to get fit through the days after Christmas. These are our 3 nutrition tips to get back in shape after the holidays.
Christmas and the days that follow can really throw our healthy diet off track. Roasts, cookies, sausage and many hearty side dishes are not only heavy on our stomachs, but later on our hips.
You know as well as we do that this will not make you happy. Instead of pleasant satiety, you'll have a bloated belly and the feeling that you're about to burst.
The day after the big Christmas feast is the perfect chance to get back to healthy eating. Impossible you mean? Goes quite easily, we say :)
Therefore, we have collected simple tips and tricks. They will help you break out of the vicious circle and feel better again.
Yes please: still water with fresh lemon
Perfect after the big meal. And to enjoy the to get digestion going again. Citrus fruits are alkaline and help to deacidify the body and against the bloated belly.
Best of all, it's the easiest detox drink in the world!
Simply add a piece of lemon to a glass of water. Whether hot or cold is up to you. Drunk hot, the Detox Drink keeps you warm in unpleasant temperatures.
Yes, please: Vegetables and fruit
At Christmas, it's mainly carbohydrates, lots of fats and hard-to-digest foods that end up on the table. We feel stuffed and can often hardly save ourselves from the table to the sofa.
So in the days following your feast, you should. Eat a lot of colorful fruits and vegetables. A yogurt with lots of mixed fruits. Or a colorful salad with grapefruit make you full. The main thing is light, low in calories and rich in vitamins.
Vegetables and fruits provide the body with fiber, which it urgently needs for digestion. They are not heavy in the stomach and provide a natural detox effect.

Fruits and vegetables also provide many vitamins and against us thereby new power. Maybe for a run, skiing or ice skating?
No, thanks: a second helping of Christmas dinner
Avoid even more hard-to-digest food. Something left over from the roast? Or a piece of lasagna? Or even sweets, soft drinks, alcohol, XL menus, white flour products?
It sounds and is quite simple: trudge to the fridge and load up a plate full of goodies. Maybe a piece of grandma's lasagna that she packed so nicely? Try to take as little of the food as possible. It's tempting to stuff yourself from top to bottom.
And if you can't help it: Freeze! You must not and should not eat everything immediately!
What you need now are a few healthy detox days - and no lasagna.
Tip: You will find lots of healthy recipes in the cookbook "Healthy cooking is love". Take a look :)

Enjoy the Christmas dinner, the time together with friends and family. But always think about tomorrow. That is, just eat wisely and not over your hunger. Your good resolutions next year will thank you! :)
