It’s time to lift
December 1, 2024
Did you know that lifting weights doesn’t just provide physical benefits, but several mental boosts, too!
Thanksgiving can be a challenging time to stick to a healthy diet, but there are ways to make it work. As your nutrition coach from afar, I would like to add some more tips to make your Thanksgiving healthier without compromising on taste.
Here are some additional tips:
Start your day with a healthy breakfast that includes protein and fiber. This will keep you full and prevent overeating later in the day.
When choosing your turkey, opt for a skinless turkey breast instead of a whole turkey with skin. This can significantly reduce your calorie intake.
Use herbs and spices to add flavor to your dishes instead of salt and butter. This can help reduce your sodium and saturated fat intake.
When making side dishes, choose healthier cooking methods such as roasting, baking, or grilling instead of frying. This can help reduce your calorie intake.
Serve yourself smaller portions and take your time to enjoy each bite. This can help prevent overeating and allow you to savor the flavors.
Drink water throughout the day to stay hydrated and prevent overeating. Avoid sugary drinks like soda and alcohol, which can be high in calories.
If you are hosting the Thanksgiving meal, consider offering healthier options like a vegetable platter, fruit salad, or a grilled vegetable skewer.
Thanksgiving is a time to enjoy delicious food. So by making small, healthier choices, you can still indulge in your favorite dishes without feeling guilty or compromising your health.
