The holidays are approaching again! At this time we seem to be surrounded by tons of food which we find difficult to resist!
Let's try to :
1) Be sure to start every day with a healthy breakfast.
- seems easy to follow
2) Avoid drinking alcohol at holiday gatherings. Stick with water.
- I'll have 1-2 glass of wine (can't avoid it by 100%)
3) When it comes to appetizers, munch on raw veggies or crackers without the cheese. Keep up conversations!
- I can do it
4) It is now dinner time. Take a small helping of each food item. Eat slowly and enjoy every bite. Again keep up conversations!
- I will, but it's a lot of food...
5) Dessert time! Opt for your favorite available dessert. Be sure to be served a sliver as opposed to a large chunk. Sipping a cup of coffee or tea at this time will also help distract from further temptation. Conversations are key here again!
- Easy,especially after dinner time :o)
6) Most importantly, exercise over the holidays to continuously burn calories.
- Can't promise that I'll go to the GYM, but I will walk instead of driving much as possible.
Do you have something to share? Please do.
