The holidays are coming along with food-filled parties and family gatherings. An abundance of rich food and drinks, along with assortments of holidays commitments,can tempt you to overeat. However,eating poorly can make you tired,irritable and stressed.

How can you eat to lower your holiday stress?

Here are some tips from the American Dietetic Association:

1. Start with a nutritious breakfast of whole grains,fruit,dairy and good sources of protein such as an egg, lean meat or nut butter.

2. Have a healthy snack before a party or holiday dinner. This will ease your hunger and make it easier to eat sensible portions.

3. Skip alcohol and enjoy sparkling water with twist of lemon or lime.

4. While shopping, bring snacks such as fruit, and drink plenty of water.

5. Eat slowly. Take time to enjoy good conversation too.

6. Take healthy treats to parties, such as nuts or a fruit plate.

7. Allow yourself special treats. Just try to balance your calorie intake with physical activity to prevent weight gain.

Final thought: Aim for a realistic number of events and responsibilities during the holidays - stress and exhaustion can lead
to overeating. Keep in mind that your main goal is to enjoy the company of family and friends.
