If there are children at home, we will basically arrange a week or two trip during the holidays, and we have also come out recently, and we will stay in Weihai for a few weeks, and when the sun goes down, we come to the beach to blow the sea breeze and dig sand, and we don't need to turn on the air conditioner to sleep at night.
This article is not a travel guide, let's talk about eating and drinking during the trip. If you think it is too difficult to eat and drink nutritious during the trip, and at the same time feel that it is too difficult not to gain a few pounds, then you must read this article, I will share the tips that can be done easily, and finally I will explain some details of food safety to you, safety is no small matter, we all have to keep it in mind.
1. How to break an unbalanced diet?
1. Staple food cannot eat whole grains
Ordering food in the restaurant is either white rice or white noodles, and the snack street is a carnival of refined carbs, no matter which city, there are all kinds of noodles, noodles, steamed buns, cakes, and cakes with different patterns.
In the face of refined carbohydrates, there is no psychological burden.
The hotel breakfast will basically have steamed corn, steamed sweet potatoes, and steamed yams, and you can eat them in the morning, and the thickness of the staple food throughout the day will be easily completed.
It is best to bring a few packets of oat bran or oatmeal in small packets, which can be eaten with hot milk or hot water, or bring a few packets of ready-to-eat chickpeas or sweet corn kernels.
I have bought small packages of oat bran from Ximai and Hema, Ximai has a smoother taste, and Hema is more cost-effective.
The common flavors of instant chickpeas are sweet, salty, and five-spiced, the sweet ones are basically added with xylitol, the pure salty ones are only added with salt, and the five-spice ones are not only salted but also spiced, just buy them according to your taste preferences.
2. Not enough vegetables
When traveling with relatives and friends, if the meal is eaten in a restaurant with stir-fried vegetables, you will be actively responsible for ordering, order a few more vegetables, and you will have enough dishes to eat at each meal.
If you order takeout in the hotel in time for the rain, and your family wants to eat rice noodles, rice bowls, cold skin, etc., you can actually order a spicy tang. Two days ago, we played on the beach all day, the car was parked far away, and we brought a tent, so I ordered takeout because it was troublesome, so I ordered a large serving of Malatang for myself.
If you are going to a cold skin shop or rice noodle restaurant with your family where it is difficult to order enough vegetables, or if you are traveling with a group and you are not limited to what you eat, you can prepare some tomatoes, cucumbers, and cherry tomatoes in your bag, which can be easily bought from supermarkets and vegetable markets near the hotel.
Every time I go to a place, I will visit the local vegetable market curiously, and I will be eager to try fresh food that I have never seen or eaten, and by the way, I will buy some tomatoes and cherry tomatoes in case of emergency.
3. Too much or too little protein
Considering that the restaurant has a lot of fish and meat, we order according to the ratio of 2:1 between vegetarian dishes and meat dishes, so that the amount of meat is controlled from the source, and we are not allowed to order so much meat because compared with vegetables, meat is definitely fatter, and the burden on the liver and kidneys is heavy when eating too much.
If you don't order, you probably guess with your fists, and it's almost enough to eat a fist, which is the amount of two ribs and one chicken wing root.
By the way, you can bring some beef jerky with relatively low sodium content, or sugar-free soy milk powder, and eat it when the protein is not enough, like soy milk powder is originally cooked, and you can drink it with bottled water, which is very convenient.
4. The food is too heavily seasoned
When ordering food on the spot or ordering takeaway, you must explain that there is less oil and less salt, especially when explaining that fried vegetables do not need to be drizzled with clear oil, in case the oil is still too much salt, then drain the oil before eating, or ask for a bowl of boiling water, soak it before eating.
In addition, when ordering, try to order as few fried dishes and over-oiled dishes as possible, such as pot-wrapped meat, fried hairtail, fried lotus root box, ground three fresh, dried stir-fried beans, braised pork ribs, sweet and sour fish, in short, braised and dry, sweet and sour, fish-flavored, fried, is the hardest hit area with high oil, high salt and high sugar.
In addition, you can also bring complex nutrients, eat 1 tablet every day or every other day, and make up for the shortcomings.
2. How to break the easy way to gain weight and gain weight?
Prevention work
Meal: Drink 300 ml of water half an hour before the meal, or order a light soup when ordering, more vegetarian dishes, ask the waiter to serve soup and various vegetarian dishes first when serving, drink two bowls of soup, eat 2 fists of vegetarian dishes or more, and finally the big fish and meat come up, and you won't eat too much.
During the trip: Don't prepare all kinds of high-sugar and high-oil snacks, bring some pears, apples, hard peaches, carry them without fear of pressure, small cherry tomatoes, grapes, blueberries can be cleaned and put into a hard box, the key is that they are not high in energy and have enough water.
Drink more water during the trip, sweating too much in summer is too easy to lack water, some friends may also take the thirst signal as hunger, and then eat, so be sure to drink more water. I basically bring bottled water, and when relatives and friends buy sweet drinks, I ask them to pour me two sips into the bottle, so that my water tastes good, and I can replenish some electrolytes and control my energy.
process control
One of the tricks I use the most is to quickly put the chopsticks on the table when I am full, tell everyone that I am full, and then pour water for everyone, or pack up the luggage, or help look after the children or something.
In case it is a little more, the rest of the meal will be packed and brought back to the restaurant, many restaurants will have Xiaoice boxes, and there are also microwave ovens used by the staff to heat the rice, like the remaining meat, heating will not lose nutrition, and the evening with a vegetarian dish, another meal, the details I share with you are all my experience, we really go out to travel and live so well, the key is not to grow meat.
Remedies
In case you still eat too much, then eat a little lighter and eat less at the next meal. I remember that the author interviewed the foodie Mr. Cai Lan, he also shared this, I, a nutritionist, do the same, I will never blame myself and feel guilty after eating a big meal, but I will eat less at the next meal, and I will not allow myself to eat two meals in a row.
For example, if you make do with it at night, you may be very hungry before going to bed, and then binge eat, so you eat lighter, eat more vegetables, eat two bites less of staple food, and let yourself eat at least seven minutes full.
Then we come out to play, and we will be more active than usual, one meal will be supported, and the next meal will be controlled a little, so we will not be fat, so relax and play easily.
5. Food safety reminder
In summer, microorganisms are most likely to breed, such as cut fruits, cold dishes, sashimi, as well as the cold skin and jelly exposed to the outside of the roadside stalls, as well as the kind of meat and squid sprayed with mist, it seems that spraying mist should keep it fresh very well, in fact, it may not be the case at the end of the day, like I ate spicy hot pot in the store yesterday, took a few slices of kidneys, it looked very fresh, but it obviously felt that the taste was wrong.
Written at the end
Some friends may say, I will travel for a week and a half, and I want to completely let go of food and drink, and I don't worry about it at all, I want to say that you really let go of these days a year? New Year's Day, Spring Festival, Qingming Festival, Labor Day, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, National Day, and even weekend relaxation, do you want to let go? It's too difficult to lose weight in a year.
In fact, the details we mentioned above are not only applicable to travel and vacations, they are applicable to the micro-habits of daily diet, let's practice deliberately every day, develop these good habits, we will not feel that doing this is a burden, but will be as natural as some girls must wear makeup when going out.
It's easy to lose weight and it's not easy to lose weight, let's work together.
