Here are quick tips to conquer the 2500-4500 calorie Thanksgiving meal
|
When you're trying to lose weight, the thought of Thanksgiving dinner and start of the holiday season can be downright scary. Having a strategy to conquer Thursday's 2500-4500 calorie meal is the best way to ease fears and succeed at your weight loss goals. Here are five tips to help!
- Get Active. Exercise before Thanksgiving dinner to create a calorie deficit. Use the 4-day weekend to get even more extra exercise in for the week.
- Eat Breakfast. Eating a small healthy meal in the morning can help you better control your appetite later.
- Lighten Up & Watch Portions. Use sugar substitutes like Stevia in place of regular sugar, fat-free yogurt in place of sour cream, and zero calorie, low carb Skinny Noodles in place of regular pasta where possible. Skip seconds and choose healthier options at the buffet.
- Eat Slowly. Put down the fork between bites and really savor each mouthful to avoid overeating.
- Go Easy on Alcohol. Alcohol is loaded with extra calories. Choose a non-alcoholic drink or have a glass of water between alcoholic drinks.
