How to Survive the Holiday Buffet Table
The festive season is a time of indulgence, and the buffet table can be a minefield for those watching their waistlines. However, with some planning and mindfulness, you can enjoy the festivities without compromising your health.
Start by surveying the spread and filling your plate with lean proteins, vegetables, and whole grains.
Limit portions of high-calorie, high-fat items like casseroles and desserts. Pace yourself and savor each bite, allowing your body to recognize when you’re full. Drink plenty of water and avoid sugary beverages.
Finally, don’t beat yourself up over a few indulgences, this time of year is meant to be enjoyed. With moderation and balance, you can navigate the buffet table while maintaining your health goals.
