Holiday the Healthy Way

Surviving the holidays with minimal weight gain means being selective and exercising portion control

If you are worried about carbohydrates, you could have a worry frenzy from now until New Years Eve. Avoid the frenzy and decide to be choosy at the family feast and holiday parties. Holiday foods that are typically high in carbohydrates include stuffing, dinner rolls, cranberry sauce and fruit pies, to name a few.
Don't feel obligated to sample everything on the table. For example choose either sweet potatoes or mashed potatoes; sweet potato pie or apple cobbler, not both! Make selective food choices that create a rainbow of color on your plate.
