2. Moderate your sugar intake: all those festive treats add up fast; between pumpkin pie and shortbread the average person gains 6 pounds between Thanksgiving and New Year!
3. Don’t show up hungry: skipping meals and over eating will throw off your metabolism and make that New Years weight loss resolution even harder to achieve.
4. Keep your body moving: make time in your busy festive season for exercise. Not only is exercise a proven stress buster but it will help make up for some of the holiday indulgence.
5. Use a small plate: this age old trick has been around since the reindeer were fawns but it still works. Fill only a small plate, eat slowly, and chew your food; research shows that people eat almost 60 percent less when they put their food on smaller dishes.
