In fact, stress is not what happens to you, but how you perceive it. Some lose weight during stress, while others, on the contrary, rapidly gain weight. It is very difficult to get rid of the habit of seizing stress, but nevertheless, you can eat completely different foods that will not affect your figure in any way.
Replace sweets with fresh fruits and berries
Dried fruits contain more calories than fresh fruits - moisture evaporates from them during drying. When choosing sweet fruits, remember that the more moisture they contain, the less calories they are. Therefore, watermelon, melon, pineapple are much preferable, for example, bananas. It is also worth giving up canned fruits and compotes, as they contain too much sugar. Make the juices yourself, and you can sweeten them with a sweetener.
Do not give up starchy foods
Instead of your favorite rolls, you can eat a small portion of pasta, preferably from durum wheat. This type of pasta has less calories than refined flour. They also have more fiber and protein. Only in no case should you add sauces, mayonnaise, sausages and cutlets to the main course. It is from these products that they get fat.
Eat rye bread
Three or four slices of rye-flour bread a day are good for you. Since rye bread helps to improve metabolism and, as a result, to lose extra pounds. When buying bread, be sure to read the composition of the flour on the package. Sometimes wheat flour is added to rye flour, this option is not suitable, you need pure rye bread.
Keep a bottle of drinking water handy
Try drinking a glass of water every time you feel like having a snack. Water fills the stomach and discourages food for a while.
Use physical activity as a distraction
If you don't have the strength to go to the gym, then do something at home: cleaning, rearranging, replanting flowers, do exercises, take a shower. Any physical activity brings a feeling of muscle joy and relieves not only stress, but also extra pounds.
