Tips on How to Avoid Weight Gain This Holiday


Most of us are prone to gain more weight during the holidays.

Here are some tips from Dr. Andrew Weil on how to avoid weight gain during the holidays:

Choose Fiber Rich Fruits and Veggies - try to stay away from foods that have high fat saturation and sodium.

Be aware of what you eat - be aware when you are eating and control yourself to stop when you are already full.

Don't starve yourself to justify eating more at dinner - this is more tempting to overindulge later in the day

Concentrate on portion control and planning - Do not put in more than you can consume. Choose only those that you love to eat. Eat slowly and enjoy the food.

Get Up from the table when you're done to avoid nibbling.
