Holidays = Joy, Celebration, and Food
Holiday gatherings mean special people,
special foods and lots of temptation to indulge. While celebrations
often lead to overeating, it is easy to keep things under control
if you’ve got a plan.
- Start your day with a small meal that includes whole grains,
fruit, dairy foods and protein like eggs, ham or peanut butter.
- Grab
smaller snacks throughout the day, saving most of your calories
for the main meal.
- Don’t starve yourself before the
meal. The longer you go without eating, the more you eat when
you sit down for a meal.
- Select foods carefully. Think about what foods
you want to eat, which ones you will just sample and which
ones you will skip.
- Lastly, enjoy the celebration. Pace
your eating and spend time visiting. You’ll eat less and feel good
about what you’ve
eaten.
