Top 5 Tips for Holiday Party Survival
Ready or not, the holidays are upon us. Having a solid eating plan before going to your event is critical. Use these “to do” HMR® strategies to get through your events with minimal calorie damage:
1. Have one (or more!) HMR Shakes and/or Entrees before you leave home. You’ll arrive at the party feeling full to help avoid a high calorie evening.
2. Take along a Benefit Bar (or two!) to eat during dessert. The calorie savings could be HUGE.
3. Call your host ahead of time to find out what’s being served, and offer to bring a vegetable or fruit platter or a giant salad. (Offer to bring a low-calorie salad dressing, too.)
4. Double or triple an entrée recipe from the HMR Recipe Book to serve to guests.
5. Get in extra physical activity the day of the event. You’ll be more likely to make healthier food choices.
