Winter fat? Not this year!

In autumn and winter, grape harvesting is simply a part of it. Enjoy them! Because with a few simple tricks, you can make sure that nothing is noticed on the scales


Change the focus

Sounds bizarre, but it is like this: If you do not always think about losing weight , it is easier to keep your weight. Because if the thoughts constantly around the lack or "may I not circling", one gets more and more appetite for the things one wants to squeeze. The good news: According to a study by the Hamburg University of Applied Sciences, a varied diet is much more successful than with a strict diet. So focus your thoughts on the "more": more vegetables, more fruit ...

Eat two apples daily 

This is now advised by nutritionists from Pennsylvania University of Pennsylvania. They even claim that you can take up to five kilos a month with two apples a day . The promise sounds a bit high, but to hold our weight is the fruit but now definitely helpful. Because Golden Delicious, Gala & Co., according to the researchers, the appetite, why you eat 200 calories less every day. The Slim effect is particularly beneficial when you eat apples before or at the main meal times and drink a lot - in combination with water, the fiber pectin contained in them swells more strongly and fills the stomach better. In addition, the pectin, along with other dietary fibers, keeps the blood glucose level constant, which slows down the risk of fatigue.

Hot steam 

Cozy drink a hot tea ? Great idea! Not only does it taste good, but it also has the effect: "When you take aromatic varieties like rooibos with vanilla flavor or cinnamon, the sweet and intense fragrance prevents sweet and hearty tastes," says expert Lemberger. There are delicious Christmas blends in the teas.

Vitamin D levels in the eye 

Do not eat more than usual and still get rounder? This can be due to vitamin D deficiency. In autumn and winter the body can not produce the vitamin itself due to the weak sunlight. Vitamin D , however, is involved in a variety of processes in the body, such as insulin production. "If it is disturbed, hunger is amplified and fat burning "A number of studies have shown that remedying the deficit promotes a stable weight and supports weight loss, so experts advise on vitamin D-rich foods such as eggs, fat fish, and mushrooms." "he says." If you want to be sure, you should let the doctor diagnose the vitamin D level and compensate for a deficiency with tablets (eg 'Vigotelettes'). "

Always eat a starter

Even if it seems contradictory at first sight: a soup in front of the main course helps to save calories. According to a study by the Penn State University, subjects who additionally ate this appetizer consumed a total of 20 percent less calories in total food than those who did without the soup. Possible reason: The high water content fills the stomach with relatively few calories, The best thing is spoon dishes with lots of vegetables, lean meat or fish. Delicious on the feast days: a protein-rich crab cocktail in the front. This makes you feel hungry faster and the hunger on roasts and dumplings is dampened. Also the main course is mostly delicious lighter variants. Nutrition expert Heike Lemberger: "Eat pork roasts or goose with red cabbage or other vegetables and less of carbohydrate-containing side dishes such as dumplings." And prefer not to put a bread basket on the table.

Go to the sauna 

Just puddle away sweat? This does not work, of course. Regular saunas still help to keep the weight: changing from warm to cold stimulates the circulation, so the body actually consumes a little more energy. Above all, the sauna and the steam bath are increasing the production of serotonin and endorphins - and the messengers of happiness improve our well-being, which in turn reduces our appetite.

From the beginning of March to the end of May is finally bearish time. The joy of the fresh greenery and the accompanying delicious dishes is great. However, the risk of confusion with other toxic plant species is always present.
