Tips To Avoid Holiday Overeating
Even if your holiday calendar is full, you can avoid weight gain this season. ìNever go to a party hungry -- eat something before you go,î says UAB registered dietitian Kathy Hubbert, RD, MS. ìTaking a low-fat dish will be appreciated and will ensure that you have something you can eat.î Hubbert also suggests keeping a low-calorie, non-alcoholic beverage in your hand to provide less temptation to reach for food. Serve yourself to ensure smaller portions, and eat slowly. Slowing down your eating time lets your stomach tell your brain that you are full before you can overeat.
