Moderation during holiday meals will pay off The holiday season is filled with events that started in November at Thanksgiving, continued through Christmas and next comes New Years parties -- filled with even more opportunities to eat, drink and be merry. With a strategy of your own, you could avoid the urge to loosen your belt mid-way through the feast and wondering how to shed the holiday weight gain -- typically about 6 to 7 pounds -- after the parties are over. The following common-sense tips can help: * Don't overload your plate - all things in moderation. * Watch the alcohol, which adds extra calories and lowers your inhibitions. The more you drink, the more you'll eat. * Check the table or buffet line to determine what you really like and what you can skip. Focus on nutrient-dense foods that aren't swimming in cheese or fat. Skip the bread at first so you have more room for foods that will fill you up and stick with you. * At a buffet, choose what you want carefully and try to leave room to see the plate between helpings. * For baked and sweet potatoes, be mindful about butter, cheese, and bacon. * When you're finally ready to eat, start with the fruits and vegetables. Eat slowly and let yourself savor each bite. Be sociable. Visit while you eat to help you take your time and make the most of the meal. * When it comes to dessert, choose smaller pieces. If you want to sample more than one dessert, try bite-sized pieces to help you enjoy without overindulging. * After dinner, take a walk and invite friends and family members to go with you. It's a fun way to connect with loved ones and can relieve that too-full feeling. This story was posted on 2023-12-26 19:55:47
