The solution to three situations that make us fat

Did you know that stress makes you fat? An excess of cortisol slows down the metabolism and therefore feels fat. Of course, dietary stress also makes you fat. Especially when we would like to lose weight but we are faced with such situations (lunch with the mother-in-law …) that we do not know what to do, with the risk of frustrating the diet and also stressing ourselves. In short, we gain weight twice. But these are situations that are difficult to say no to. Here are what they are and how to get out unscathed (and with a clear conscience):
1) Are we going out tonight? Sure why not. Too bad this will mean going for a drink, and if you’re in company everyone will indulge in the frozen cocktail or the frothy pint or restaurant revelry. And you? Are you watching? What are you doing, aren’t you drinking? Don’t you eat?

Here’s how to get out of it if you got out:if you go out to eat, find the restaurant’s website and study the menu. Ok, it’s a bit sick, I did it and it works. Exercise before going out: you will be more relaxed and encouraged to make healthier food choices. Avoid bread, but have dessert. Eat only one carbohydrate: bread, or pasta, or potatoes, or dessert. If you are in the pub, play it on the low glycemic index: wine instead of beer, peanuts and pistachios or olives instead of fries.
2) The weekend: same thing as we go out tonight. Except that it repeats itself for three nights in a row. Try to stay on a diet from Monday to Friday and then indulge in a free meal on Saturday OR Sunday. The remaining day eat moderately.

3) The office:here we fight every day, you are in the trenches, never let your guard down. The office generates stress, stress calls food. From the coffee break to the canteen to the aperitif to the snack in front of the pc until the evening when a wave of fatigue and stress would make us eat anything, office life can be the grave of all good intentions.
Here’s how to get out of it: plan your evening meals so that as soon as you get home you just have to reheat and serve. In the coffee break drank the bitter coffee. It’s a little trick to remember that you don’t have to go too far. At the cafeteria, eat only vegetable dishes or a salad and focus on dietary snacks to gratify yourself: a protein bar in the middle of the morning or a bag of almonds or hazelnuts or dehydrated berries with no added sugar.
