1. Dining in restaurants

If you are busy at work and don’t have time to calm down and cook yourself a nutritious, delicious and low-fat lunch or dinner, you can only do it in a restaurant. , then you must remember the following principles, which are very important for you to be able to choose healthy food that suits you when dining in restaurants:

Principle 1: Tips before ordering --- drink more water

Drinking enough water is key to maintaining a healthy weight. In the process of diet control, if you limit the amount of water you drink, you will lose weight faster, but research shows that fat only accounts for 13% of the weight lost, and water accounts for 84%. When drinking more water, although the weight begins to decrease, The speed will be slower, but fat will account for 25% of the weight lost and water will account for 75%. The actual amount of fat lost will be more. You should drink seven or eight glasses of boiled water (2000-2500 ml) every day. No matter how tight you are at work, you should still find time to drink more water!

Of course, if you use the time before meals to drink more water, there is an additional benefit for those who are losing weight: it will fill your hungry stomach and reduce the amount of food you eat.

Principle 2: The key to controlling calories and fat - be sure to order cold dishes and steamed dishes

OutingThe most difficult thing to control when dining is the intake of cooking oil. In order to ensure the taste of food, restaurants often add excessive cooking oil, so if you choose stir-fried or fried foods, your fat intake will exceed 2-3 times! According to the nutritionist's investigation, the trick is that cold dishes and steamed dishes use the least amount of oil in restaurants, followed by cooking methods such as braising, boiling, stewing, simmering, and sour, which use less oil and therefore have lower calories. Stewing, pan-frying, deep-frying, dry roasting, and dry-roasting lamp cooking methods use a lot of oil and are not recommended.

Principle 3: Remember the nutritional formula when ordering, which can help you make the right choice:

FINELunch/Dinner=

1A serving of cold/steamed vegetables

1serving of protein with healthy fats

1low-fat soup

Choose five

Sweet potato + millet porridge + cold tomatoes + shrimp stewed tofu (soup before meal)

Choose six

Principle 4: The secret to eating full easily—eat slowly

The time it takes for the human brain to respond to food satisfaction varies depending on the body's constitution. It takes about 12 minutes for a thin person and about 20 minutes for a fat person. "Eating slowly" ensures that your brain has enough time to feel satisfied with the food, thereby avoiding overeating. Remember, usually, you can reduce the amount of food you eat by 15% to create a feeling of fullness after a quick meal. Over time, this will turn into a significant weight loss effect. !

Principle 5: Let your eyes deceive your "stomach" - pay attention to the volume of food, not just the weight!

A certain volume and quantity of food can reduce psychological stress, hunger and fear. While reducing high-sugar, high-fat, and high-calorie foods, you can increase beans, soy products, roots (such as radish, celery, cabbage, rape, etc.) and melon vegetables (such as winter melon, bitter melon, zucchini, etc.) Foods rich in crude fiber, large in size, low in calories, and highly satiating.

Principle 6: Uncover the deception of drinks—Be discerning about drinks

Water or tea should be your first choice. Order a glass of water or tea in front of you and drink some if you have the chance. Sugary drinks are not low in calories. 500 ml of carbonated drinks or juice is equivalent to the calories of 4 taels of rice! Try to avoid alcoholic beverages such as beer, etc. Remember that alcohol has almost twice the calories of sugar. If not controlled, it may be the culprit for your delayed fitness results!

Principle 7: Learn to waste a little—just leave it if you don’t want to eat it!

It doesn’t matter if there is some food left on the plate. If you don’t want to feel like a stuffed duck after finishing a meal, wait until you are seven or eight times full. When the time comes, please put down your chopsticks calmly, and you will achieve a lot of results in losing weight!

2. Dinner dinner

Nowadays, due to work needs, everyone inevitably needs to have social events. Social meals are high in fat, high in calories and require a lot of drinking. Many nutritionists call them "chronic suicide". ". If you eat a lot of social meals, you must know the following ordering skills. You must know that the fat intake of the same food will vary greatly if you choose different cooking methods. For the same type of food, learn to choose low-calorie options. You can greatly reduce your caloric intake! So, what issues should be paid attention to when ordering food for a general "social dinner"? What is the most reasonable combination?

Smart ordering and drinking when socializing is a key to maintaining good health. The following principles should be followed:

Principle 1: Order in the order of soup - health porridge - vegetables - meat

You should eat easily digestible things first on the table, soup - health porridge - vegetables - meat, the ratio of meat and vegetables is 1:3, one mouthful of meat and three mouthfuls of vegetables. In this way, vegetables The cellulose in it surrounds excess fat and toxins and excretes them from the body, maintaining the acid-base balance in the body. Bean sprouts, lotus roots, and Chinese cabbage are all high-fiber foods.

Principle 2: For more than half of the dishes, choose light and low-oil cooking methods such as cold salad, steaming, and boiling, and order no or less fried dishes

Try to order some cold dishes (such as pickled beef, cold tofu, cold shredded vegetables, cold cucumbers, mixed vegetables, etc.), vegetable soups (kelp tofu soup, pumpkin soup, winter melon and egg soup, etc.) , health-preserving porridge (such as preserved egg and pork liver porridge, eight-treasure porridge, mung bean and kelp porridge, lotus leaf porridge, etc.). Remember to eat less pork with high fat content and more fish, shrimp, rabbit meat, tofu, etc. that are high in protein and easy to digest. In addition, use soup instead of high-sugar carbonated drinks such as Coke and Sprite.

Principle 3: Drink in moderation and sober up in time after drinking

Drinking is inevitable when eating "social dinners". If you drink too much, you will easily get drunk, which may even cause symptoms such as dizziness and vomiting. Your head will even hurt when you wake up the next day. Taking care of yourself before and after drinking is very necessary. We all know that alcohol causes great damage to the liver and gastric mucosa. Reasonable dietary prevention can reduce the damage of alcohol to the liver and stomach.

First of all, the meal before drinking is supplemented with complex vitamins A, C, E, and B. The B vitamins can help the liver detoxify. Drinking some protein-rich soy milk, tofu, egg and jujube soup, eight-treasure porridge, etc. before meals can reduce the damage of alcohol to the gastric mucosa. Liver puree radish porridge, cold tomato salad, sesame paste, oatmeal porridge, etc. are all foods rich in vitamins A, C, E, and B. Eating some before drinking can help the liver detoxify.

Secondly, drinking should be limited. A small amount of wine can promote gastric juice secretion, help digestion, and promote blood circulation. Generally, red wine is the most suitable.

Thirdly, after being drunk, you should drink more fruit juice, vegetable juice, honey water, yogurt, mung bean soup, vinegar, rice soup, and eat some watermelon, grapes, tomatoes, etc., which are not only rich in vitamins and minerals, but also can replenish the body's losses. Moisture is very helpful for sobering up. But avoid using strong tea to relieve hangover. Drinking the two together will not only damage the heart and kidneys, but also cause great damage to the brain.

Finally, if you have a headache after sobering up the next day, you can drink some honey water, eat some bananas, soft and easy-to-digest bread, porridge, fresh fruits, soy milk, and avoid eating high-salt, high-fat, fried or baked foods.
