How to avoid overindulging while still enjoying lots of great food this season
Maintaining a healthy diet over the holidays can seem like a huge challenge, but it really is possible – if you can find your balance. Research shows that the average American adult gains 2 pounds during the holiday season. That might not sound like a lot, but it still can inconveniently weigh you down.
Don’t Skip Meals
Skipping meals during the day may result in overeating later. It’s especially important to have breakfast – research shows that those who eat a healthy meal in the morning tend to consume fewer calories throughout the day. Let PB2 help you with some breakfast recipe inspiration you’ll thoroughly enjoy!-
