So if you find yourself gaining a few extra pounds from November through March then you aren\u2019t alone. In fact, the average person can gain at least one to two pounds during the festive season \u2013 more if you\u2019re already overweight. So if you normally find yourself a bit larger come spring and are looking to keep in shape this year, then there are a few simple lifestyle and diet changes that you can make that ensure you\u2019re happier, healthier and in shape during the shorter winter days.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Plan Your Meals<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Take back your control in the kitchen and plan ahead. Even if your festive schedule is packed full of parties and family visits, your entire family can benefit from your <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bodyandsoul.com.au\/diet\/diets\/five-winter-food-rules\/news-story\/d5c4626ceafe836ebe2d65c613dc9875\">healthier-choice<\/a> meals and sweet treats. If you\u2019re looking to improve your overall health and wellness, then Isa Tonic has a great range of products to get you on the right track, not to mention <a href=\"https:\/\/www.isatonic.com.au\/isagenix-reviews\/\">almost all these Isagenix reviews are positive<\/a>. When it comes to meal planning make sure that you eat seasonally, where possible. You might want to start your day with a glass of hot water and lemon to get your metabolism and immune system ready for the next few hours. If you\u2019re eating out, choose grilled meats, seasonal vegetables and limit your carb intake. There\u2019s no reason to skip dessert \u2013 but instead of dairy or bread-based choices, choose fresh fruit or sorbets.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Shake up Your Winter Exercise Plan<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Even if the winter season is already upon you, why not take pen to paper and plan a whole list of fun winter activities for you and your family to enjoy? Exercise is a great way to boost your endorphins, not to mention working out in the colder weather will increase the overall number of calories that you burn during your routine. From long winter walks to a brisk jog around the block, use the weather to your advantage and make sure that you keep active.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Snacking is Ok<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yes, enjoying a healthy, high-fiber, high-protein snack between your mealtimes is ok, honest. Why not try peanut butter on wheat bread or a handful of nuts? Healthy snacks will make sure that your body\u2019s heat mechanism keeps on ticking over, helping you to keep warm. The warmer your body temperature, the less likely you are to crave high-fat, high-sugar carbs \u2013 so <a href=\"https:\/\/health.usnews.com\/health-news\/blogs\/eat-run\/articles\/2016-12-30\/10-of-the-best-winter-weight-loss-tips\">get snacking<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Enjoy Goodies in Moderation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yes, it\u2019s the season to be jolly, but don\u2019t let your hard work hit the wayside when it comes to indulging in festive punch or Christmas goodies. Keep your cookie jar out of sight, and out of mind. There\u2019s no reason why you can\u2019t indulge occasionally, but make conscious choices when enjoying goodies this year.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Keeping in shape during the winter months is easier than you might think. With careful planning and a few small changes you will be happier and healthier than in years gone by.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; It isn\u2019t just your imagination \u2013 as the temperatures drop outside your appetite really can spin out of control.
