TOP 5 TIPS FOR BALANCED HOLIDAY EATING 🎄 - Radio Interview on with Andrew Schultz.
Are you wondering how you can stay on track with your health goals while also enjoying holiday food? Find my dietitian tips below:
1️⃣ Don’t go to your party/event starving. Have a small snack 1-2 hours before your event. Being too hungry can lead to overindulgence.
2️⃣ Choose and offer healthier foods if you are hosting/bringing a dish. Whole grains, vegetables and fruit - make sure there are healthy options.
3️⃣ Think about your drink. Healthier choices include flavoured soda water, plain tea/coffee. For every alcoholic drink you have, have a glass of water.
4️⃣ Enjoy your food. Food during the holidays often serves a cultural or traditional purpose. Eating foods you like without judgment can help you develop a healthy attitude about food. Take the time to savour and enjoy it.
5. Think beyond food to celebrate. Celebrate with an activity. Try:
- Going for a walk to look at all the pretty lights
- Playing a game
* Taking part in an outdoor activity like skating, sledding or building a snowman ⛄️
