Every year we celebrate the holidays in our own, unique ways. Our Chandler office, Warner Family Practice, hosts an annual Christmas project, and the opportunity to celebrate together with our entire staff, those we do life with nearly every day, is a treat. Oh, and there are plenty of actual \u2018treats\u2019 that accompany the celebration.<\/p>\n
For those who eat healthy, the holidays are a difficult time to find the right balance of \u201chealthy foods,\u201d and having to face the office party food spread or your family reunion dinner table makes it even more difficult to eat right.<\/p>\n
No one is able to avoid food from November through December. It is everywhere during the holidays.<\/p>\n
By making a few smart choices, you will stay on top of your health, enjoy festive gatherings and still feel great.<\/p>\n
Enjoying festive meals during the holidays doesn\u2019t mean bringing your own tupperware container and asking, \u201cWhere is your microwave?\u201d<\/p>\n
Being aware of simple, staple foods that you don\u2019t HAVE to have on your plate will make it easier for you to continue feeling good.<\/p>\n
If you do choose to eat these foods, just make sure to keep your portions small.<\/p>\n
Knowing what to avoid is one thing (and not really fun), but knowing what you should eat is a lot more enjoyable.<\/p>\n
Keep in mind the small portions you normally eat, and you should be fine eating any of these foods and snacks this holiday season.<\/p>\n
You can easily find foods during the holiday season that are nostalgic and can help keep you on track in terms of healthy eating. Just remember to eat everything in moderation and be smart about the foods you consume this year.<\/p>\n
