One of the ways that Reader’s Digest suggests to stay healthy during the holiday season is to focus on the fun and not the food. I know I have caught myself saying that the holidays are for food, but really it’s about connecting with family and friends.
With that, they say to indulge on only the most special treats. The ones you only get at that time of year. It keeps the excitement and enjoyment up without completely limiting yourself.
They also encourage staying active whether that is doing classes, yoga, or cutting down your own tree!
The last main thing is to keep yourself busy on a project you may have been pushing off such as a photo album, or organizing heirlooms. You will still keep yourself from focusing on the food, and you will also have a good time doing something you were meaning to do!
