6 TIPS TO SURVIVE THE HOLIDAY SEASON “Holiday cocktail parties can result in taking in more calories than most dieters assume but that doesn’t mean you need to skip them altogether. With a little calorie control you can get through the holiday party season without blowing your diet.” How to Control Your Calories at Holiday Parties SNACK BEFORE YOU GO With so much high-calorie food that’s served up at holiday parties the last thing you want to do is to arrive with an empty stomach. Have a high protein snack late in the afternoon to tide you over until dinner. CHOOSE APPETIZERS WISELY The snacks and appetizers that are typically offered at holiday parties are greasy salty and high-calorie. It’s best to ask your server for a small plate and portion out for yourself. When your plate is empty that’s it. KNOW THE CALORIES IN YOUR DRINKS A bottle of light beer or glass of wine has around 100 calories-a better choice than mixed drinks (refer to source below). That’s because hard alcohol has over 100 calories per shot. Mixers and add-ins (sodas fruit juices syrups and cream) can drive the calories sky high. ESTABLISH A LIMIT BEFORE YOU GO Know your calories limit and how you plan to spend them on your cocktails and appetizers. ALTERNATE YOUR DRINKS Once you’ve had one alcoholic beverage switch to something that’s calorie-free like some sparkling water iced tea or a diet soda with a twist. Some people feel that having a drink in hand makes them appear more sociable-but that doesn’t mean that the drink has to have alcohol or calories. FOCUS ON THE FUN Being sociable doesn’t require that you have a cocktail in your hand or a plateful of snacks in front of you. Tag your party friend that always complain holidays are fattening.
