How to Not Over Eat During the Holidays from Health Briefs TV



Oh how good the home cooked meals are. We know how hard it is to be careful what we eat during the holidays. Health Briefs TV offers a few thoughts about to not overeat during the holidays.

It is okay to indulge on the holiday itself but not on the days before and after it. Over indulging throughout Thanksgiving week and the weeks leading up to and including Christmas, Hanukah and New Year’s Day can derail anyone’s weight loss plan or wellness routine. But do enjoy the special dishes people like to make.

Take plenty of walks before and after meals with family members and friends. This is the nicest way to spend quality time with someone you haven’t seen in a while.

If there is a lot of fatty, carb and calorie-laden food on the table, take small portions of it.  A small portion should be no bigger than the palm of the hand.

The Health Briefs TV show suggests snacking on veggies and low-fat or healthful dips and spreads. Make your own to take with you or borrow a car and head to the store for the ingredients.

Over eating throughout the holiday season can wreak havoc on a healthy lifestyle or weight loss plan, Think ahead and prepare to not over eat.
