Enjoy a balanced holiday with these 5 practical, expert-recommended choices drawn from years of nutrition guidance.
1. Don't Skip Meals
Start your day with a nutritious breakfast and have lunch too. Skipping meals often leads to overeating at Christmas dinner.
2. Drink Plenty of Water
Stay hydrated throughout the day, and alternate alcoholic drinks with water to maintain balance.
3. Dare to Say No
Politely decline if it supports your diet, suits your tastes better elsewhere, or saves room for favorites—no need to explain.
4. Take a Walk After Christmas Dinner
This healthy habit aids digestion and creates enjoyable family moments.
5. Opt for Healthy Gourmet Choices
At family gourmet meals, add an extra serving of vegetables instead of meat. More tips for a healthier gourmet>>
