Stay Fit for Thanksgiving

                                       


Thanksgiving will be here in less than 24 hours! I can't wait to dig in and feast all day long! However, even though I plan to indulge like crazy, it doesn't mean I can't still be cautious to make sure I don't tip over the scale and ruin my diet. When the holidays roll around, you have to make you keep yourself in check and still get some kind of physical activity and don't give your food time to stick. Check out a few ways to ensure you don't go overboard.


* A simple way to get some physical activity in is to take a mile walk before and after dinner. Piece of cake!

Make sure to still eat breakfast! Don't wait until feast hours until you fill your stomach up with food.

* You can have most of these foods all year long, so pass up on the seconds and thirds.

PORTION OFF YOUR FOOD! Get a little of everything and don't overdo it!

* Alcohol calories can add up quickly, so go easy.

* Be sure to savor every bite. Don't rush through your meal.

* Think about weigh maintenance instead of weight loss, that way you'll be more likely to make better decisions.

Follow these tips and once the feast is over and it's back to reality, you will have kept your weight in check!
