Say No to Holiday Weight Gain!

Holidays are here and so is the temptation to overeat! Every day seems to offer an opportunity to have fun – your office party, Xmas, Hannukah, and Kwanzaa celebrations, open houses, holiday parties, family gatherings, New Year’s etc. What to do??? Do you refuse the delicious treats – maybe – or perhaps you eat in moderation.

For example, I keep a daily food log as a way of keeping tabs on what I eat. It keeps me accountable and mindful of my food choices. If I don’t keep track I am more likely not to count the piece of pumpkin pie, or giant gingerbread cookie….that I ate for dessert on Thanksgiving Day. Having a plan like keeping a food log and exercising is the best way to combat unnecessary holiday weight gain! While visiting my brother in San Francisco, I offset my holiday eating by climbing staircases and sightseeing at the same time. Find a fun and creative way to stay fit during the holidays!
