How To Avoid Holiday Weight Gain!
By Robert | October 24, 2008
Every year the Holidays come – for many this means adding a few pounds. Sure it tastes good so you tell your self you will work it off later. Some do, some do not. So how can you prevent the Holiday weight gain?
Portion Size
It is really easy to say but harder to do! All you have to do it watch your portions and do not overeat. You can also add in an exercise program if you are not exercising all ready. Hey get a head start on the New Year Resolutions.
Planning
Okay, so how can you keep your portions under control when everything tastes so good? That is where it can be more difficult as you know. You can make it easier by planning ahead before the Holiday meal.
Visualize
Before you go to the meal, think about what why you would not want to gain weight. Think about how you will feel if you overeat and gain weight. Plan on what you will eat and visualize the correct portions on your plate. This will help you stick with your plan when you get to the meal.
Drinks
You need to also prepare for how much you will drink. It doesn’t matter what beverage you drink, if it is not water, it will add calories. Oh and by the way the sugar free beverages are not any healthier.
Appetizers
How about appetizers? This is a deadly weapon that can shatter your plan. Just plan ahead and predetermine the number of appetizers you will let yourself have when you consider the beverage(s) and the meal. Holiday meals are a total package and you need to cover all your bases.
Dessert
How about dessert? The best thing you could do would be to skip it. But that will be so hard to do for many of you. You will have an advantage here if you are one of the people that prefere savory salty foods over desserts. If you just can not say no then ask for a small piece. Even if you end up with a big piece you only have to take a bite or two. It is your body and while it might go to waist, better if it is not on your waist.
Put all this together and plan ahead before those Holiday meals so you can avoid the weight gain blues!
Now if you should happen to put on a few pounds in spite of your best efforts then take advantage of a weight loss method called calorie shifting to help you quickly lose those extra pounds. Discover how a calorie shifting diet can help you lose the Holiday pounds!
