With an action plan you can start this season prepared to avoid the usual 7 to 10 pound weight gain many people experience. A realistic plan takes into account personal food preferences. It can even include small amounts of your favorite treats. Instead strive to maintain your weight by balancing high calorie foods with lower calorie fruits and vegetables and increased physical activity. Adopt the suggested tips below that make sense to you.
Activity balances calories and is a great stress reliever.
Health is as important during the holidays as after them. This attitude will lead you and your family to a more fully satisfying holiday experience. Even before a holiday meal such as Thanksgiving, plan to have a light breakfast or lunch. Have a healthy snack before going shopping or cooking. Fruits and vegetables come in their own packaging and are easy to carry for a quick, nutritious snack.
