Holiday Eating Tips
December, 2003

The holiday season is a wonderful time to get together with friends and family but it can be a difficult time to stay on a healthy diet. The average person gains one to three pounds over the holidays. While that amount is nothing to worry about, it can be hard to lose even a few pounds. Here are some healthy eating tips from Granite Medical. |
- Avoid mindless snacking. Don't stand next to the buffet.
- Think about what you are going to eat. In other words, focus on quality not quantity.
- Catch up with friends and family to take your mind off eating.
- Limit the consumption of alcohol which contains lots of empty calories.
If you do slip up and consume more than you planned, don't be too hard on yourself. No one is perfect. Just get back on track and move forward.
