18 Tips To Stay on Track During the Holidays

Eat a hearty, well-balanced breakfast. It really is the most important meal of the day. Not only does it get your metabolism going, it will also help to curb your appetite later so you’re less likely to overeat.

Weigh yourself daily. Every morning, step on the scale after brushing your teeth. Make it a daily habit so that you can really stay on top of whether or not you are on track with your goal weight. It will be easier to adjust your habits accordingly if you watch your weight fluctuate daily rather than weekly.

Veg out when you veg out. One of the best parts of the cold season is curling up on the couch in your cozies with a good book or movie. Instead of hot chocolate or wine or junk food, opt instead for hot tea (black—no sugar!) or sparkling water and veggies, nuts, or popcorn (easy on the butter!) to munch on.
