FIT THANKSGIVING

Listen, we're not saying "don't indulge" on Thanksgiving....
that's just CRAZY advice from fit people who don't really like food. YES, on occasion you're going to run into a personal trainer or nutrition guru who really doesn't like food, so telling you to "don't eat this or that" is just plain simple for them! AND CRAZY talk to someone who actually LOVES FOOD...aka. all of us here at B-FIT4U. We are FOODIES, but that's not an excuse to forget about being healthy!! You can ENJOY yourself on Thankgiving, it's one day! (ok and maybe a day of leftovers) but that's two whole days of FUN eating! Don't feel guilty, remember your workout on the THIRD day. Remember a healthy breakfast that morning, and remember to choose good for you foods to eat every 2-3 hrs, throughout the day to keep that metabolism revved up!
Don't forget to be THANKFUL!
 
Great ways to keep it healthy on Thanksgiving!
 
Find a " turkey trot"~ a fun 5k to enjoy with friends the morning of Thanksgiving
 
Go easy on the appetizers, save that feasting for the meal
 
Don't skip breakfast, keep that metabolism revved up by not skipping meals on the big day
 
Chew slowly, give yourself a chance to be full, not overfull and uncomfortable
 
Skip the seconds, there's always tomorrow for leftovers
 
Drink responsibly, enjoy that glass of wine, but don't overindulge...it causes overeating, bloating, slows the metablolism, and you're drinking your calories!
 
Don't skip dessert....have a slice of pie, or a little bit of all your favorities. You shouldn't restrict yourself, everything in moderation!
 
 
TURKEY TIP:
Give yourself some wiggle-room. At the end of the day, Thanksgiving should be enjoyed with loved ones, and enjoyed! DON'T STRESS IT! You're on the right track! Healthy, moderation, Happy! B-FIT4U!~FoodieGIRL
