• Most people gain 2-5 pounds between Thanksgiving and New Year—keep your insulin and glucose low to avoid this.​

• The holidays should be about enjoying friends and family, not just food—give your future self the gift of no weight gain.​

• Focus on nutrients (protein, fat, cholesterol, vitamins, and minerals) instead of toxins (fructose, chemicals, and excess glucose).​

• Eat foods that satisfy you like meat, eggs, and healthy natural fats; these keep you full and help your body burn fat.​

• Stay away from man-made foods: anything in a box, bag, bottle, or can is loaded with chemicals and processed sugars.​

• Reduce portion sizes by using small plates, especially for desserts—most cravings are satisfied by just two or three bites.​

• Never go to holiday gatherings hungry; eat a little protein or healthy fat before arriving to avoid bingeing on carbs.​

• Don't start meals with sweets or sugary foods; it makes you hungrier and causes more cravings.​

• Choose water, unsweetened tea, or coffee over sodas and juice to cut down on sugar intake.​

• Take a walk after big holiday meals to help burn off extra glucose and lower insulin levels.​
