Healthy Holiday Eating TipsDuring this holiday season make a promise to put yourself at the top of your list. Here are some tips to hold yourself accountable. Remember, moderation is the key!
- Eat breakfast or snacks earlier in the day and avoid the idea of saving carbs for the big feast.
- Limit the number of servings of starchy foods on your plate.
- Choose fruits and vegetables served raw, grilled or steamed. Avoid vegetables in creams, gravies and butter.
- A bigger plater doesn’t mean you need to fill it up with more food.
- Stick to calorie-free drinks such as water, tea, seltzer, or diet sodas instead of punch or mixed drinks.
- After your meal, take a walk with family and friends. Exercise will also get you moving, keep you focused on your goals, and give you a welcome break from being surrounded by treats.
- Wait 10 minutes after eating to see if you really are hungry for seconds.
If you overindulge, don’t beat yourself up. If you eat more carbs or food than you planned for, don’t think you have failed, just make a plan to get back on track.
