Want to avoid holiday overeating?

Overeating is not going to make you gain 10 lbs on one day but for each time you overeat your stomach will expand and the satiety signals going to your brain weakens. So, why not be a step ahead and prevent that? We know, it´s easier said than done. Just by considering preventing your overeating you are already one step closer to avoiding it this holiday ?

Holidays are the time for families coming together, eating, drinking and hygge (hoo-ga), as we would say in Danish, enjoying life´s simple pleasures with people you love. When it comes to food and drinks it´s no surprise that it is the same as last year and the year before that! There´s food, treats and alcohol everywhere.

It´s often high in fat and simple carbohydrates. The vegetables are limited and those that are present are usually soaked in dressing or sauce. You’re facing a challenge: what should you eat? It’s important not to give in and think short term because you are going to live beyond that dinner party.

Put this in mind: you can avoid overeating! By following these steps, we´ll be working on changing your mindset. It´s all about being aware of what you put in your body and how it makes you feel.
