Thanksgiving doesn't have to mean weight gainadded Thu November 20th, 2008 11:24am EDT
The idea of gaining five pounds over the Thanksgiving holidays is almost a cliché - but it doesn't have to happen this way.
Writing in the Low-Carb Examiner section of Examiner.com, Jamie Van Eaton gives some tips about how to avoid putting on weight during the holidays.
She suggests that turkey-loving dieters may be in luck this season, because the meat is high in protein and fairly lean. Eating turkey can also help keep you full, to better steer clear of bread and potatoes.
Van Eaton also warns against drinking too much alcohol before a meal, which may result in cravings for high-carbohydrate foods to stabilize the system.
In fact, she suggests eating a small protein-filled snack before the main meal begins to help avoid piling too much food onto your plate.
"By the time the marrow is sucked clean from that turkey bone, the damage is done if a person eats past satiety and into being over-full," she writes.
Women who are trying to lose weight on the south beach diet or other eating plan may want to make sure whoever is cooking the Thanksgiving dinner knows about their food restrictions.
