Here’s How To Enjoy Traditional Festival Sweets Without Exceeding 200 Calories

How can you even celebrate Diwali without sweets? And there a whole lot of festivals before Diwali where feasting and indulging in decadent sweet treats are integral to the tradition. It’s quite clear that maintaining a calorie deficit while taking care of nutrition is essential for weight loss. However, during festivals, you do have to make room for sweets! So, even while adhering to your diet, even when enjoying sweets, to prevent weight gain, you would need to practice portion control. Practicing portion control is the key and understanding the calorie content and recommended serving size helps you stay within your calorie deficit. So, in this article, we have compiled a list of traditional sweets and how much you can consume to stay within 200 calories (based on popular sweets from brands such as Haldirams). But do remember, you are making room for these sweets by compromising on healthy food, so do reserve this indulgence in sweets only for festivals/special days, otherwise, they can easily derail your weight loss progress.

If you want to indulge in a bit of Indian sweets without actually worrying about putting on a lot of weight, make the sweets without white sugar.

Also, condensed milk is a strict “no-no,” which is made by adding an insane amount of sugar to milk! Certain other low-cal sweet options are banana barfi halwa, coconut barfi, sugar-free dessert phirni, badam halwa, sweet and spicy nuts, non-fried gujiya (baked), or make the gujiya with whole wheat or oats flour and with filling of nuts, raisins, anjeer and even moong dal.

Have you ever questioned if they are more healthy? You’re not alone. Even agencies that offer health-related advice on the foods we eat have been questioning if organic foods are more nutritious, often citing the lack of scientific evidence. These questions may finally be answered. Recent research provides scientific evidence that organic foods are indeed healthier and it may change opinions about these foods. In recent (largest of its kind) study at Newcastle University UK, researchers have found that eating organic foods vs. conventional foods may provide many benefits which convention foods do not.

Don’t Start Something and Not Finish It

Image
Don’t Start Something and Not Finish It New Year’s Resolutions – did you make one this year? Have you stuck to it? For most people, the answers to those questions are, in order, “yes” and “no”. Just doing something at an arbitrary time defined by tradition is absolutely no way to govern your life. All it means is that you are choosing something, often at random, to complicate your life at a time when things may well be stressful enough already. The New Year may be a good point to decide on making a New You, but the truth is that unless you are ready, you will be more likely to set off with good intentions and then fail to keep to them. Start your exercise plan knowing what you are looking to achieve, how you will achieve it and how much time it will take. Then, whatever the plan, stick to it.

McDonald's introduces trans-fat-free oil

Image
Good giant McDonald's has finally begun to use trans-fat-free oil for cooking french fries in some restaurants, after seven years of testing different oil varieties. According to spokesperson Walt Riker, the new oil has been introduced into more than 1,200 restaurants in the United States. He did not reveal the locations of these restaurants, or when the chain would begin using the new oil in its other 12,500 U.S. locations . Trans fats are artificially created fats that have no nutritional value. They have been shown to raise the body's ratio of "bad" (LDL) to "good" (HDL) cholesterol, thus increasing the risk of heart disease. McDonald's spent seven years testing more than 50 blends of 18 different varieties of oil before settling on the current oil. The restaurant first pledged to introduce a new oil in 2002, but backed away from that promise within a few months, reportedly due to concerns about a new oil's possible taste effects. Accor...
