...See more HEY EVERYBODY~  🦃 Thanksgiving is almost upon us!  It's that special time of the year when we give thanks, celebrate and enjoy the time, company of those you care about, and things you are grateful for.  🦃However, sometimes it can be a challenge to stick to the healthy habits you may have worked so hard to build. But, The good news is that it doesn't have to be this way~  🦃Here are 7 tips to help you prepare and make healthier choices this Thanksgiving: 1 Prepare/Plan ahead…. Preparing a healthy dish ahead of time, can ensure you'll have a nutritious option at the table. Plus, it's a great way to share your commitment to wellness with others. 2 Fill up on veggies and healthier side Dishes, and the Turkey…. Choose lean proteins and veggies to keep your plate balanced. 3 Portion Control… Portioning your plate can help you stay on track without second-guessing yourself. Reach for a smaller plate, or stick to a Sample one helping of things you absolutely must have.  4 Swaps…. Swap an unhealthier side for a  more nutritious one. Pair you turkey with carrots, cauliflower mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes or another veggie you prefer.  5 Pause…..Take a moment before digging in & Pause to consider your choices and ask yourself what you really want?! And decide what is actually worth reaching for and how you want to feel.  6 Provide sides you don't love. If there are dishes you're not particularly fond of, bring those! This way, you can fill your plate with healthier options and avoid temptations. 7 Set Small Movement Goals.. At the end of your meal, set a small goal to step outside and take a small walk with your family. This will help to aid in proper digestion after your dinner, help to encourage steps in your day, and allow for extra bonding time with family!  ⭐️With these simple tips, you can celebrate Thanksgiving in a way that aligns with your health journey. Embrace the joy of the season and enjoy time with loved ones, all while feeling good about your choices!   QUESTION:  WHAT TIPS DO YOU USE, (or like to Add or Share) for “Healthy Thanksgiving” Holiday?!
