Tips Mindy Fretz Dietician Dean Borg and Mindy Fretz discuss sensible eating during the holidays.
People tend to feel pressure to avoid certain foods during the holiday season.
The goal enjoy foods that are not part of your daily intake. Controlling portion size is also very important. When possible, be aware of what types of foods are higher in calories, sugar, and fat and take more moderate portions of these foods. It is not advised to go to a holiday meal with the mindset that it will be your only meal for the day. In these situations we tend to become ravenous and have a more difficult time controlling how much we consume.
