Don't skip breakfast-make it a well-proportioned, wholesome meal. Same goes for lunch. There is no resisting any part of that delicious Thanksgiving Dinner, I'm not going to tell you to avoid fatty foods and eat a lean turkey. BUT there are some ways you can avoid feeling stuffed.
Eat slowly. The faster you gobble everything down, the more you eat. The SLOWER you eat, the more satisfied you will feel by the end of your Thanksgiving dinner AND the less likely you will be to pack on the pounds.
Drink water- Caffeine and alcohol don't quench your thirst and only make you feel more tired and unpleasantly full.
Drinking water BEFORE your Thanksgiving dinner is also a good idea. It will fill your belly enough to make room for a well-proportioned meal.
Sample the food and proportion it out like this:
Start with the vegetables, fill your plate with 1/2 veggies
Then work your way around to everything you want with little proportions that will fit, don't pile it up!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
