Avoid the Leftovers!
Happy belated Thanksgiving, everyone! I hope you all had wonderful days, full of thanks and laughter. I'm sure many of you said, "I'm going to give myself some leeway on the big day, but then right back to healthy living on Friday." Great intentions, but then there are those pesky leftovers staring at you for up to a week later. Here's a good plan for not indulging too much after the feast is over. First, allow yourself a serving of one side (but keep bringing on the white meat turkey!), even a dessert, the day after, but keep it to that one serving. Then, throw away all leftovers by Sunday. I know this seems wasteful, but we're more concerned with keeping ourselves healthy and fit than saving leftovers. I hope you all got back to your regular exercise schedules on Friday, and are feeling rested and ready for Christmas--can you believe it's here? Me neither. Stay tuned for some more holiday survival tips, and some new Christmas-inspired protein shake recipes (gingerbread cookies, and eggnog anyone?). Cheers to your health!
