3 Ways How Upcoming Holi Can Secretly Make You Fat



The festival of color is almost here. It brings an excuse to bond with friends and family. But it also tricks to fall into pits of weight gain. As per experts who perform obesity surgery confirm that Holi and other typical Indian festivals often leads to excess consumption of calories and failing to shed them effectively, eventually leads towards weight gain. 

So, let's go through some habits that can add extra pounds across your belly-line. 

1. You Are Skipping Your Routine Workout Regime

Holi festival brings many changes and it is highly likely that people decided to let loose a little bit. With their guards down, they often skip their otherwise regular exercise, working out or jogging. It is a bad idea as regular burning of calories is crucial in order to have a balanced body weight. As a result, during the festive time, less burning of calories occurs simultaneously with extra intake of calorie, resulting in weight gain. 


2. You Are Eating And Trying Out, A Lot

Holi is incomplete without having both new and traditional dishes. It is thereby unavoidable to have high calorific food items. Eating out and trying a range of dishes is compulsory to spice up the spirit of the festival. Especially, desserts and fried foods add the maximum amount of calories in the body.


3. You Are Fasting For Long Hours

Many people from all across India, keep fasting for a significant portion of the day. They eat only after the completion of rituals around the evening. And during that time, they intake highly processed and fattening food.


4. You Are Eating Instead Of Drinking

Playing with colors throughout the day makes the body dehydrated. Thus, it is crucial to intake plenty of water over the period of day. However, most people don’t pay enough attention to it. As a result, the body craves for liquids and in such conditions, you mistakenly take it for hunger and eat a lot of calorie-loaded food.

In fact, this has been found to be a very common reason to gain weight among people who later seek weight reduction surgery. So, you need to keep having sips of water every now and then, especially during the summer.

So, take note of these few, simple tips and avoid changing into the next dress size. Happy Holi to you and your family!
