In fact, stress is not what happens to you, but how you perceive it. Some lose weight during stress, while others, on the contrary, rapidly gain weight. It’s very difficult to get rid of the habit of seizing stress, but nevertheless, you can eat completely different foods that will not affect your figure.
Replace sweets with fresh fruits and berries.
Dried fruits contain more calories than fresh ones - during drying, moisture evaporates from them. When choosing sweet fruits, remember that the more moisture in them, the less caloric. Therefore, watermelon, melon, pineapple is much preferable, for example, bananas. It is also worth abandoning canned fruits and compotes, as they contain too much sugar. Make juices yourself, and you can sweeten them with sweetener.
Do not give up flour
Instead of your favorite buns, you can eat a small portion of pasta, preferably from durum wheat. This pasta variety is less calorie than refined flour. They also have more fiber and protein. Only in no case can you add sauces, mayonnaise, sausages and meatballs to the main dish. Get fat from these products.
Eat rye bread
Three or four a day slices of rye flour bread will do you good. Since rye bread helps to improve metabolism and, as a result, shedding extra pounds. When buying bread, be sure to read the composition of the flour on the package. Sometimes wheat flour is added to rye flour, this option is not suitable, you need pure rye bread.
Keep a bottle of drinking water on hand
Try a glass of water every time you feel like eating. Water fills the stomach and for a while discourages the desire to eat.
Use physical activity as a distraction
If you don’t have the strength to go to the gym, then do something at home: cleaning, rearrangement, replanting flowers, do exercises, take a shower. Any physical activity brings a feeling of muscle joy and relieves not only stress, but also extra pounds.
