The holidays can be a big hurdle in a weight loss/health plan. Holidays don't mean you can't enjoy the good food and desserts.
Here are 5 tips for a healthier holiday:
1. Plan Ahead - It will help if you have a plan in place ahead of time. Decide if you are going to have seconds in advance and what you are going to have seconds of. For example, mashed potatoes and gravy can be loaded with calories and fat, so opt for seconds of a healthier salad or other side dish. Be sure to plan out the desserts, too. If pecan pie is a weakness, put in place a realistic plan. One slice and a cookie...?
2. Low Calorie Snacks - While you are visiting and waiting for the main meal to be served, snack wisely. Select low calorie veggies to much on versus fatty appetizers. "Save" your calories for the meal.
3. Socialize - Take the time during your holiday meal to catch up with family and friends. This will slow down how quickly you eat and are running back for seconds. You may find that you're full and not need that second helping!
4. Watch the Liquid Calories - A glass of wine can add 120 calories and egg nog 340! Do you really need a second glass?
5. Prepare a Healthier Dish - Is your holiday gathering a potluck? If so, prepare a healthy alternative you like.
These are just a few steps you take to prevent holiday weight gain.
