Blog47: Top 10 Tips For Healthy Christmas

Merry Christmas To All !!

There is the Christmas cheer all around but you have worries of your own? Planning to minimize the weight gain this Christmas? Get your strategies in place to cope with festive temptation and have a happy, healthy Christmas. Try these  tips:
1. Start your day with a glass of warm water and lemon.
2. Have a small meal before going out. Arriving at Christmas party hungry is a big mistake. Eat something healthy and filling before heading to a party to prevent that inevitable grab for SOMETHING MY GOD ANYTHING in front of your face. The idea is to avoid gobbling down too much of the food you love or any of the food you don’t.
3. Drink a glass of water before you go to the party, upon arrival, and in between each alcoholic beverage. This will help keep you hydrated.
4. Take a loop around the food before you grab anything. You want to know all the options available before you start to fill your plate.
5. Increase the number of fruits and veggies on your plate. Even if they’re not your favorite. Because the more veggies you put on your plate, the more veggies you're likely to eat.
6. Watch out for salt and sugar. Try to restrict the amount of salt added to the dishes while cooking and don’t freely offer the salt shaker on the table.
7. Think before you eat. Christmas is a time of plenty, and with nuts, chocolates, mince pies and cheese straws wherever you look. Mindlessly popping whatever is in front of you in your mouth, spend a moment thinking about whether you really want it, or are just eating it because it’s there.
8. Be strategic about alcohol. Try to avoid anything that is mixed with soda (lots of empty calories) and be mindful of how much you are drinking. 
9. Try to focus on the party and not the food. Spend time networking, talking to people, enjoying the music, the company, the ambiance, etc.
10. Make time for yourself in the busy Christmas schedule. Take 10 minutes to go for a walk, listen to some music, read your book.
So indulge these little and enjoy a lot.
Have a happy, healthy festive season!

Thank You!!
