10 tips to avoid putting on weight this winter
As soon as the temperatures drop, we tend to throw ourselves on the good traditional dishes of our ancestors. Tartiflette, gratin dauphinoise, boeuf bourguignon, fondue savoyarde, and so on! Except that, if once our ancestors had imagined these dishes in sauces, richer and fatter, it was to help them fight the cold and gain energy. Today, let's face reality: radiators, escalators, elevators... let's continue? We no longer need to fight the cold as we used to. As a result, we gain weight. Discover all our advice to say bye-bye to winter kilos.
1- BEWARE OF DAIRY AND MEAT PRODUCTS
Yes, that means fewer tartiflette, raclettes, and Savoyard fondues. If you really can't do without them, try not to exceed one traditional dish per week. The same goes for meat, beef bourguignon once in a while. And avoid charcuterie at all costs. Always favor vegetables as you do the rest of the year.
It's perfect if you need consistency. Same with starchy foods (wholemeal pasta please!). These families of foods fill the stomach and provide a lot of energy thanks to their high nutritional value.
3 LIGHT DINNER
It's great for evenings with friends but tries as much as possible to make a raclette brunch or tartiflette lunch. In the evening, we eat light. It's better for your figure but also for your sleep.
4 -EAT SOUP AS OFTEN AS POSSIBLE
This is THE winter dish that you should put in the spotlight. There are so many possibilities that you can vary the soups every day. In the evening or as a starter (during a more formal meal), soup is your best ally. If you buy it ready-made, pay attention to the composition.
5 -DRINK HERBAL TEAS AND INFUSIONS
Do you find it difficult to drink freshwater with the drop in temperature? Then prefer herbal teas and infusions. Warm, they comfort and warm while being tasty. Remember that just because it's cold outside doesn't mean your body needs less hydration.
6 -DO NOT REFILL
Be careful with quantities. If you still feel hungry, it is not because of the cold, you are in a heated room. First, identify where this hunger comes from. What is on your plate may not be nutritious enough. It is better to eat a little but well.
7- DON'T FORGET THE FRUIT
Goodbye to strawberries, raspberries, and other fruits. You are bound to find fruit to your taste during the cold season. Apple, pear, tangerine, clementine, orange, kiwi, banana, lychee, grapefruit... Fill up with fruit and therefore with vitamins. Do you know the saying? One apple a day keeps the doctor away.
8- GET OUT AND MOVE
It's tempting not to go outside when it's cold. You take the bus or the car rather than the bike to go to work, you spend your Sunday by the fire or with plaid on the sofa in front of your favourite series. Force yourself to keep your good habits: it's time to explore the forest, take the dogs out, enjoy the fresh, clean air. It's good for your complexion!
9 -THINK OF SUGAR DIFFERENTLY
Do you dream of eating something sweet? Opt for a fruit cake or pie instead of chocolate or ice cream.

Limit your alcohol consumption to parties or evenings with friends. Alcohol is one of your worst enemies because it contains only empty calories. Basically, other than pounds (and a tough tomorrow), it doesn't do you much good. So drink in moderation!
