冬季减肥的4个小妙招

 冬季减肥的4个小妙招

1. Sort out your mood.

　　If you suffer from depression, then winter might mean that it is more obvious that there is something wrong with your mood. When we're depressed¹, it makes us more likely to feel the need to comfort eat, and this can be hugely detrimental² to our diets when we're trying to lose weight. You should think about the things in your life that are making you stressed, and see what you can do to try and change that. If you are feeling down about your work load, then why not try talking to your boss and see if there is anyone else within your department who might be able to take on some of the work that you're struggling with?

　　2.Keep up regular exercise.

　　You need to do this, or your body will become unfit again and it will be a struggle when you get back to the summer months. In addition to this, exercise improves our mood and also speeds up our blood circulation³ and this means that we will be able to keep a lot warmer. This can cheer us up, and can stop us from feeling as though we need to eat comfort food during this time.　

　　3. Save money on your heating⁴.

　　It can't have escaped your attention that heating your home is very expensive these days. Luckily, if your body needs to heat up more, you will burn more calories, so this might mean that it is actually better for you if you should choose to turn the heating down a couple of degrees.　

　　4. Buy healthy foods.

　　Instead of stocking up on chocolate and sweets, why not stock⁵ up on fruit instead? Things such as nuts and rasins can be yummy, but won't have as much of an effect on your waistband as chocolate might have done. You could always try salted vegetable crisps⁶, too, if you are a savoury kind of person, as these are much better for you than other brands of crisps that you might be a little bit addicted⁷ to at this moment in time.　

　　1.调整你的情绪。

　　如果你患有抑郁症,那么冬天就意味着你会感觉有些不对劲。当我们情绪低落的时候,我们更可能感觉到需要用吃来安慰自己,而这对减肥中的我们非常不利。你应该考虑生命中让自己感到有压力的事情,看看自己能做些什么以努力改变它。如果你感觉工作负担太重,那么为什么不试着跟你的老板谈谈看看是否让你部门的其他人来分担你的工作呢？

　　2.保持有规律的锻炼。

　　你需要这样做,否则当夏季来临时你的身型将再次变得臃肿。此外,运动能改善我们的心情,也加快了我们的血液循环,这意味着我们能使自己保暖。这会鼓舞我们,让我们打消在这段时间吃食物来安慰自己的念头。

　　3.节省你的供暖费。

　　近来让你家的取暖费是非常很昂贵的。幸运的是,如果你的身体需要热量,你可以燃烧更多的卡路里,这就意味着实际上是更好的,所以你应该选择把暖气下降一些温度。

　　4.买健康的食品。

　　与其储备很多巧克力和糖果,为什么不置办一些水果呢?诸如坚果和葡萄干很好吃,但不会像巧克力那样热量大。如果你是一个喜欢吃可口味道的人,你也可以尝试腌制蔬菜,因为这些比你这个季节沉溺于各种品牌的薯片要好得多。.
