How to avoid weight gain at Easter?
In recent weeks, shop windows and shelves are filled with Easter chocolates. If it is difficult to resist, consume in large quantities unfortunately leads to unnecessary pounds. How to limit the damage? Editus gives you some tips to eat without fat!
2 eggs and it's over
Consumed in reasonable quantities, chocolate does not gain weight. Eating 20 grams a day is not fattening ... However, it does not represent much, just two small Easter eggs. We recognize it, it's hard to crack for so little!
Stop an idea
Contrary to what one might think, a tablet of 100gr. equals a little over 500 calories, whether it's dark, white or milk chocolate.
To find out if a chocolate is fat, you have to rely on its cocoa content. So :
- White chocolate is low in fat but is highly sweet
- Dark chocolate is low in sugar, but is very fat.
- Milk chocolate is a mixture of the two previous ones: it is as rich in fat as it is in sugar.
Note, however, that Easter eggs and filled bars (praline, caramel, gianduja, etc.) are more caloric than those who are not.
2 tips to eliminate calories
Playing sports : if you spent the day consuming Easter chocolates in large quantities, you will have to eliminate all that!
The solution: move! If you and the sport are two, go for a stroll at a steady pace. The ideal way to burn up calories is to go for a walk early in the morning before breakfast.
Drink a lot: water, of course! Easter is not only synonymous with chocolate, but also a good family meal. To eliminate the toxins you have accumulated, and make your digestion easier, drink between 1.5 and 2 liters of water a day, but also tea, infusions and herbal teas.
