The following are are some great tips from my friend Fit Chef Katy on healthy holiday habits.
Healthy Holiday Tips
1. Why wait for January? Get your holiday present early and get a trainer now.
2. Always have a snack in your purse, car, bag…pre-measured nuts, beef jerky or an apple.
3. Look at the buffet table first. Decide what you can’t live without and find what is the healthiest choice. Search for protein and veggie options like meatballs, Carpaccio, crudités. Then ask yourself what is my good better and best healthy choice. Fill half your plate with the best healthy choice and no more than 1/4 of your plate with the “I cant live without” item.
4. Dessert – Take the THREE BITES pledge. On those amazing full fat desserts, treat yourself to one three bites total! So you can have one bite of three or vice versa.
5. Liquor makes you thicker. Make a pledge to have a glass of water in between each drink. Don’t drink standing up. Sit down, enjoy the moment and the glass of wine etc.
