Recently a few people have asked me, "Thanksgiving is only 1 day of the year, is it ok to indulge on food this day while trying to lose weight?"
Yes Thanksgiving is only 1 day out of the year so why not go CrAzY right? Well first of all every year there is only 1 Christmas AND you will only have one birthday AND your co-workers will only have 1 birthday (EACH month), etc, etc, etc... Seems there is always an excuse to overeat and "cheat" on eating healthy. Even though Thanksgiving is only 1 day, it can often lead to a spiral of overeating, beginning with holiday leftovers! My advice to you is INDULGE, but not OVERINDULGE. Enjoy the healthful foods the holiday has to offer and treat yourself to some of your favorite holiday "cheats." Really ENJOY your food instead of laying on the floor with stomach pains from overeating it! If you do find yourself eating more than planned on Thanksgiving, get your move on and try eating light on Friday.
Happy Thanksgiving from Workout for Wellness!
