[HELL]: 10 tricks to reduce appetitesteemCreated with Sketch.

in #life7 years ago

Hello! In the articles of the HELL-themed theme, I'm not tired of saying that the deciding factor of our weight is the amount of calories consumed. Very simply: I ate more than I spent - I gained weight, on the contrary - I lost a piece of myself.

If you have decided to limit yourself, try to do this, reducing the stress from the missed delicacies to a minimum. Keep a selection of 10 minor tricks that will facilitate torture by proper nutrition :)))

Method number 1. Abundant drink
Life-giving moisture will help to deceive the body. Approximately 5-10 minutes before meals, you can drink a glass of water. This will have a beneficial effect on the activity of the gastrointestinal tract, will signal the need for active work. Water will fill the stomach and create the illusion of satiety. Appetite, of course, diminished. Water should be without gas. It should be remembered that a day should be consumed about 1.5-2 liters of liquid (pure water).

Method number 2. Aromas
Some smells can suppress appetite. For example, the fragrance of a green apple, lavender, mint, rose, cinnamon, vanilla.


The smell of fresh bread, on the contrary, increases the desire to eat. Sometimes it is used by supermarket owners to increase sales (well, did you notice this drug effect near the bakery department?).

The method is especially useful for those who suffer from psychological hunger, that is, when salivation starts from a mere glimpse of fried meat or an air cake. Once the appetite is played out, you need to inhale the fragrance from the aroma or 3-4 times each nostril, or fill the kitchen with incense from the aroma lamp. If the family does not mind :)

Method No. 3. Control of the eaten
This is not a cunning, but a fundamental law of weight management. I have to remind him about 100500 times, I'm sorry.

Control of calories - alpha and omega of any process of body mass correction. We really do not realize how much energy is actually consumed with food.

In one study, women who were under the control of scientists had to record everything they eat during the day. Only 1 out of 10 coped with the task, the remaining 9 participants "lost" in sight an average of 30% of the energy consumed.

So do not cheat, write-weigh at least a week. Results at the end of the day, perhaps you will be very surprised.

Method number 4. Color therapy
Many people have heard of color therapy. Meanwhile, color can increase or decrease the desire to eat. Plates of black, dark green or brown colors will keep your appetite.

White plates, in spite of universal love, focus on food. The food on them looks quite impressive, thus prompting the person to eat the contents. The same rules apply to the design of the kitchen, the room for eating. Walls or furniture of cold shades: green and blue, turquoise and sea waves - this is the most for a girl on a diet. But yellow, orange, orange, red will have the opposite effect.

Method number 5. The size of the plate
The larger the plate, the wider the waist. This pattern has long been noted by psychologists. The fact is that the usual portion on a large plate seems small, the brain receives a signal that there is not enough food. But if you take a smaller dish with the same portion - food will be more than enough.

Method number 6. Heat in the kitchen
One of the tricks resorted to restaurants, when they want to increase the cost of a check - low temperature in the room. Reducing the temperature by 10% increases the portion eaten and by 20% - drunk. Therefore, the kitchen should be warm. And it is advisable not to have dinner on a hot day in a cafe under air conditioners: the effect will be the same.

Method number 7. Manipulation with light
You need to eat in a room with bright white light. Another cunning restaurateurs - dim lighting. Dinner in a dark corner or with a yellowish lighting risk to gradually turn into dinner.

№ 8. Saving fruit
This option of reducing appetite will suit hopeless gluttons, which only look where anything tasty to eat. Of course, such a problem needs to be treated. But for the prevention of a basket with fruits and vegetables (carrot sticks, for example, celery ... in general, make a cutting, you will not notice how it breaks!) In a conspicuous place. They should be eaten as a snack between the main meals.

But with grapes and other sweet fruits, for example, bananas, also know the measure - they are very high-calorie and very quickly absorbed.

№ 9. Chocolate can be, but carefully
Many people like this method of satisfying hunger. The essence of it is easily explained on the example of child behavior. A child who before dinner ate a candy, it is difficult to force to eat soup.

A bit of bitter chocolate (not dairy, 72% of the minimum cocoa products) will certainly deceive the body. Chocolate is better not to bite, but to dissolve. The receptors will send a signal to the brain that the body has received a sweet, and with it - enough calories. The figure of this is not exactly affected, but the portion eaten after will be much less.

Method number 10. Close things - a signal to reduce portions
Wearing a tight skirt, dress or trousers, eating a lot is problematic physically. This method I came up with, so you can nicely enter the title of 10-ku. But you can try, it suddenly works.
