A quick shout out to everyone to wish you a Happy Thanksgiving! As we are now officially in the holiday season, there are lots of events and parties that tempt us to overeat with delicious, holiday feasts. A few quick tips to think about:
- Eat slowly and in moderation; savor the food. Enjoy a sensible portion of your Mom’s cornbread dressing (My Mom’s is delicious and I’ll be enjoying it!)
- Load up on fruits & vegetables, but go light on or skip the butter & sauces
- Turkey is great, & low-fat if you remove the skin
- Get plenty of exercise–this will help keep off the pounds. After the meal, take a walk with your family. Pete & I will be taking our dog Mitchell for a post-meal walk and inviting the family to join us!
A happy, healthy Thanksgiving to all of you!!!
