These tips can help you prevent holiday weight gain without having to skip the holiday festivities!
There’s the festive mood along with a ton of food and drinks, every time you gather for family meals or holiday parties at work.
Does losing the excess fat around your midsection hard for you? A combination of a healthy diet, good eating habits, exercise, and body contouring with Mini Lipo may be the right option for you. Are you stressed about undoing your weight loss over the holiday season but still enjoying yourself?
You can do both! While you enjoy the holiday festivities, you can still avoid holiday weight gain (and maintain your weight goals). Here are some tips on how you can achieve your weight loss goals through a combination of diet, exercise, and Mini Lipo.
Yes, you can prevent gaining weight during the holidays without depriving yourself of good food!
How to prevent holiday weight gain
Don’t put undue strain on yourself by trying to lose weight over the holidays when you’ll be spending time with friends and family. Focus instead on maintaining your current weight. With careful planning, you will be able to enjoy your holiday while having a positive impact on your health and well-being!

Stay hydrated
You probably didn’t realize how many benefits drinking water has. Don’t forget to drink water before going to your holiday party.
Water suppresses your appetite and can make you feel full and satiated without adding unwanted calories (water literally has zero calories). Dehydration plays a major role in weight gain. Our bodies believe we are hungry, so we eat food, even if we are really just dehydrated.
Water also stimulates metabolism. Meaning you burn more calories after drinking water. So, drinking a few cups of water every hour will keep your metabolism at peak performance all day. This will help in weight management.

Be smart with what you eat
It’s easy to eat more and ignore your weight during the holidays. You can, however, eat whatever you like as long as you are smart enough about what you should eat. One thing is for sure: don’t overindulge during meals. Choosing quality foods at parties is better than having more food on your plate.
Overeating will make you feel bloated, tired, and sluggish. Remember to control your portions. Fill your plate (we suggest getting a smaller dinner plate) with vegetables, complex carbs, healthy fats, and lean meats.
Avoid processed foods, such as boxed mashed potatoes, pasta, and white bread. Also, limit the added sugar from savory desserts. You’ll realize that you’re actually enjoying parties while still staying on track with your weight goals.

Breathe in and destress
Stress, sleep deprivation, and overeating all go hand in hand. If you don’t sleep well or eat right, your stress level can spike. Stay stress-free and holiday weight gain-free by doing the right things to stay healthy.
Mindful breathing. Eating right. Exercising, such as taking yoga classes or walking. These are things we all hear time and time again but can easily be forgotten with the hustle and bustle of day-to-day life. Staying consistent with your routine is key to managing your stress levels (and weight gain) during the holidays.

Track your habits
During the holidays, it is tempting to let your guard down. Keeping track of what you eat, how much you eat, and how much activity you do daily will help you stay focused on your goals.
Doing so does not mean that you are depriving yourself of the good stuff. Keeping track of your habits will help you in managing your weight.
Supplement your weight loss journey with Mini Lipo
Some people who have lost weight and have managed to maintain it might still have problem areas of fat that they can’t seem to eliminate, no matter how hard they try.
Despite all the dieting and exercise, fat seems hard to reduce in locations such as hips, thighs, back, neck, belly, and buttocks.
The Mini Lipo procedure is a body contouring technique for getting the toned body you desire without surgery or any downtime. The Mini Lipo procedure does not remove large amounts of fat, so weight loss is not achieved.
Rather, Mini Lipo is intended to sculpt problem areas such as the neck, chin, thighs, hips, and arms. The instrument used in Mini Lipo for removing fat is tiny, so you don’t have to worry about long recovery time and bruising.
