Once more, if not a holiday, we can gather with friends and family, to please yourself and loved ones gifts, dance, spend time in a friendly conversation for a festively set table ...!

And here it is in a celebratory feast, and cut out one virtually the only negative associated with the holidays. Holidays are traditionally not do without our rich table laden with a variety of goodies. And I want to try that at the table, and this. And after a glass or two of wine can and do lose control over the amount eaten. And after the holiday begins ... Someone heaviness in the stomach, someone has problems with the liver, and a couple of extra kilos triumphantly returned to those who so stubbornly tried to lose weight "for the holiday." Yes, and on the exterior of the rapidly conducted by the evening and gastronomic excesses affect not the best way - an earthy color, with new wrinkles, bags and dark rings under the eyes, puffiness and redness of the eyelids.

Prevention - the key to success
In preparation for the holiday, do not go on a diet: can you and will be able to lose a few kilograms overweight, but during the festive feast keep from overeating will be doubly difficult. The organism is experiencing the fear of hunger, subconsciously try to stock up as much fat in reserve.

Decorate your holiday table healthy fish and seafood.

It should not be zealous and decoration of dishes - as little as possible, add to them nuts, cheese, cream-based sauces, gravies, butter and whipped cream. After all, it is all the extra calories that are so fond deposited at the waist in the form of fat.
