Tis' the season to be FAT! with the next big holiday for family gatherings, lots of wine, and of course FOOD! Thanksgiving is right around the corner, but for those who have been trying to eat healthy all year, Thanksgiving may be your worst nightmare! So for those who do eat healthy, this might be torture. All that great food, great wine, and great people! Soo much temptation is surrounding you. So, instead of being a hermit and avoiding all of that you need to learn how to deal. With portion control and self restrictions, you will get through this Thanksgiving with no problem, and without hurting your lifestyle of healthy living.
Learning how to deal with your grandmother trying to cram junk food and her homemade snacks into your face may be the toughest part of the day. But all is not lost! You can recover. The snacks like crackers and cheese, chips and dip all seem to be the first on the table when the party starts. Before the meal is even done cooking, your already full to the brim with junk. But if you want to stay somewhat healthy, you need to learn when to say NO! No need to waste the room in your stomach on useless calories and carbs! Save room for the food you went to eat. The TURKEY! As said before, portion control is key. Eat small amounts of what you want most. This will curb your appetite and make you feel fulfilled with what you've been waiting and wanting to eat!
