102: 5 Tips to Enjoy Thanksgiving Even If You’re On a Weight Loss Journey

from The Millennial Nutritionist · host Illa Garcia, MS, RDN

Around this time of year, my clients’ biggest concerns are how they’ll handle Thanksgiving. It’s a holiday that is characterized by alllll the comfort food, yummy desserts, and festive drinks. While our TMN method allows for enjoying all your favorite foods, Thanksgiving can be a big trigger for overeating or a pattern of restriction if you don’t plan for the day. In this episode, I’m sharing my top 5 tips for how to actually enjoy your Thanksgiving (and the holidays as a whole), even if you’re on a weight loss journey.    Links mentioned: Get healthy Thanksgiving recipe ideas in our Millennial Living Membership - https://themillennialnutritionist.com/membership  Check out our Lifestyle Reset Program - https://themillennialnutritionist.com/services    3 things to keep in mind this Thanksgiving: East normally throughout the day! Don’t fast the entire day to “prep” for overeating at dinner. You’ll end up eating way more (and not feeling as great) than you would if you ate a balanced breakfast and lunch that day. Bring a healthy dish to share. This might be a veggie appetizer plate or a seasonal salad mix, or you can make a healthy version of your favorite dessert to share. This guarantees there will be a healthy option for you to fill up on in addition to your favorite Thanksgiving dishes.  Remember that Thanksgiving is only one day out of the whole year. If you enjoy your favorite holiday foods and get right back on track the next day, you’re going to be fine and you won’t derail your goals.   Hi!

There are so many health companies and fad diets out there that want to convince you to buy their products, but I’m here to show you that you don’t need any products to lose weight!
