<p>The holidays are upon us, and there’s plenty of food and drink to be had as the days carry onto the New Year. ’Tis the season to indulge, indeed, so sticking to your usual diet or workout can be challenging. It’s around this time of the year when you feel more lax about enforcing your own habits, so you tend to just let yourself go. </p><div><br/></div><p>Of course, it’s much easier to not care—it’s the festive season, after all! If you’re wary about gaining unwanted pounds, though, there are actually easy ways to stay mindful of how much you’re eating and drinking. (Note, it’s not about how much.)</p><div><br/></div><p>The key is to make it fun, so you don’t feel like you’re depriving yourself. Get that dopamine going with these simple tweaks to your daily routine and you won’t even have to think about unwanted holiday weight gain!</p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/f90538ad-e193-4a2e-8871-45aeece9b105_pexels-picjumbocom-196648.jpeg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/></span></span></div><div><br/></div><div><strong>1. Reward yourself only after starting the day right.</strong></div><p>You may already have your morning routine down pat, but the holidays can mess this up for you. That’s why it’s important to kick off each day on the right foot.</p><div><br/></div><p>You may be tempted to skip breakfast because you want to make up for last night’s Christmas dinner or you want to “save” calories for later, but this is actually a bad idea. </p><div><br/></div><p>Go ahead and have a nutritious breakfast and drink your <strong>Lipton Green Tea</strong> to get your metabolism going. Not only does this energize you to go through your morning workout, eating a good meal at the beginning of each day keeps you from overeating later on.</p><div><br/></div><p>Once you’ve started the day right, you can feel better rewarding yourself with a drink or two at the next party!</p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/5302f8cf-35f8-4e86-a538-557720880a7c_lipton webvert 2.jpg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/><span class="fr-inner" style="text-align:left">Reward yourself only after starting the day right.</span></span></span></div><div><br/></div><div><strong>2. Drink a virgin drink for every alcoholic drink.</strong></div><p>Make this a rule to follow for every event you’re planning to go to. You don’t have to skip the alcohol entirely, but drinking Lipton Green Tea 30 to 45 minutes after dinner or going for a glass of water in between cocktails can do wonders. Tea is a better alternative to water than coffee or soda because it contains less caffeine; plus, it has L-theanine that slows the absorption of caffeine for less jitters!</p><div><br/></div><p>Because alcohol tends to increase your appetite and often clouds your better judgment, remember to hydrate throughout the night to keep you from downing one too many libations. If you’re one to be proud of tolerating alcohol more than the next person, you can be prouder of staying more hydrated!</p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/37e2bd50-3676-4f73-a8c9-cf95e29cc25c_pexels-cottonbro-studio-3171837.jpeg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/></span></span></div><div><br/></div><div><strong>3. Find an accountability buddy.</strong></div><p>When family reunions, holiday dinners, and office parties start taking over your calendar, having someone you can rely on to keep you in check is essential. Grab your sibling, your BFF, or your significant other, and set ground rules before going out. This way, you can both have fun without compromising your own goals.</p><div><br/></div><p>If you can create holiday rituals that don’t revolve around food, then much better. Together, you can take your morning breaks with Lipton Green Tea or go for yoga classes after work. You don’t have to ditch any of the celebrations, but you can make sure you’re both having fun sans the overindulging!</p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/d755fb17-c32a-42cd-851d-44bc477af39d_bruce-mars-hhxdpg_etiq-unsplash.jpeg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/></span></span></div>
