Eating healthy during the Holiday Season is always a challenge but there are a few strategies to let you enjoy yourself, without all of the guilt.
- Bring your own food: Whether you're attending an office party or cookie-exchange with friends. Offer to bring a dish to share. This way, you're guaranteed to know there's one thin you can eat. (Check out our Holiday Recipe below!)
- Eat before you go out: Curb your appetite by eating a healthy snack or light meal before you go out so you don't attack the buffet table. Eat some healthy carbs (fruits or veggies), soup or some grains to fill you up.
- Limit your portion size and menu choices: Pick the smallest plate size available and be conscious of your food choices. A few small indulgences at each event can really add up. Pick one event to live it up and keep your healthy habits at the rest.
- Make your first drink water: Start the evening hydrated by by ordering a selzer water with lemon or lime and no one will be the wiser. If you do indulge, alternate any libations with a large glass of water in-between rounds.
