The holidays are a great time. There are parties, friends and family reunions and lots of tasty goodies around every corner!
Is there a way to have your holiday treats and your health too?
1. Fruits and vegetables- If you're planning the party make sure to put out lots of these items. These are filling choices that satisfy your hunger but will still leave a little room for the cookies and eggnog.
2. Never say NEVER!! Don't stay away from all treats, it's not nescessary. Keep high calorie foods to a minimum.
3. Eat a snack before leaving the house- Don't starve yourself thinking that you can over indulge, it doesn't work! Calories add up, no matter what time of day you eat them.
4. Last but not least, the work place can be a "danger zone" with all those treats being home made and brought in by co-workers. Limit yourself to one or two small treats every day so you don't feel like you are missing out on them.
Remember this holiday, it's about friends and family coming together and having fun, taking time to talk and share memories of the past, and goals for the future.
We wish you a safe and happy holiday season!
