There is no need to make this holiday season equal 10 extra pounds. The holidays don't have to mean weight gain. You don't have to wait until January 2nd to "be good." There are ways to focus on healthier choices and include some physical activity with you holiday festivities. A few simple tips can help you prevent some of those unwanted pounds.
- Don't try to lose weight during the holiday season - just try to maintain.
- PLAN for exercise! Even a 15 minute walk once a day. If you can fit in two walks...go for it!
- Before a party of big meal, drink water or snack on raw vegies.
- Look at the buffet BEFORE you fill your plate. You DON'T have to try everything. Include vegies and fruit.
- Eat slow, enjoy your meal and the company you are sharing it with.
- Don't waste too may calories on beverages.
- Bring a healthy dish or appetizers to a party. Then you always have a healthier choice.
- Make healthy swaps in recipes.
Have a wonderful holiday season from the Mayers staff!
