HOLIDAY EATING

HOLIDAY EATING

Some simple guidelines to help get through the next 2 weeks.

1. Be Realistic.  Don't try to lose weight, try to maintain.

2. Keep Moving. Don't stop exercising because you are busy, in fact try to add a few (10-15 minute) brisk walks each day. 

3. Avoid Liquid Calories.  Alcohol can lower your self restraint and often lead to overeating. Non alcoholic beverages are usually full of calories, mainly sugar (the worst excess calories). Drink 12 oz of water before every meal, this will help to keep you full and also aid in digestion. 

4. Load Up On Veggies.  When at parties or buffets try to load your plate with veggies and salads first, next try to fill up on any grilled or baked protein type dishes. This should help you reduce the amount of high calorie foods and deserts you eat. 

5. Focus On Activity not Food. Try to do something with your friends and family other than eating. Skiing,snowshoeing, bowling, board games.

Have a Great Holiday,
