It’s only the beginning of November and I’ve already heard my first holiday song on the radio. And while I think the radio station was playing it as a joke, I’m very serious when I say it doesn’t hurt to start planning how you will stay on your weight loss plan during the holidays!

Here are a few tips I think you should keep in mind: 

• Give yourself some insurance by exercising a little bit more. Do an extra 10 minutes at your next work out, take an extra walk in the evening with your family, or dance to a little music after dinner.
• Let your friends, family, and colleagues know your following a healthy diet. When it comes time to choose restaurants or menu items for parties, they will know ahead of time to include healthier options.
• Start collecting recipes of healthy appetizers, entrees or desserts now so you can be prepared when it’s time to shop for parties or bring a dish to a party.
• Remember that you’re choosing not to eat certain foods this holiday season, you’re not depriving yourself.

I'd love to hear any tips you may have!
