Today's the day when most people eat their most caloric meal of the year. The calorie count of the average Thanksgiving dinner is between 3,000 and 4,500 calories.
If you eat past the point of fullness, you'll end in a "food coma" and your day of food and festivities will end up being a day of food remorse and regret.
"It's easy to go overboard when you're surrounded by an abundance of food, and people encouraging you to take plus-sized portions and eat to your heart's content," points out Eat Smart Expert Ruth Houston, "That's why you need to approach the day with a strategic eating plan."
Ruth Houston, author of the upcoming book Eat Smart and Lose Weight: Scientifically Proven Ways to Lose Weight without Diets or Exercise, says, "Believe it or not, if you eat smart - eat strategically - you can enjoy all your Thanksgiving favorites, and still keep your calorie consumption in check. And the best part is you won't even have to skip dessert."
In keeping with Houston's belief that everyone should be able to enjoy eating without having to worry about their weight, Houston has two free sheets with guidelines on how to eat strategically on Thanksgiving Day.
"Eat Smart for Thanksgiving if You're Watching Your Weight" will help you put the eating odds in your favor on Thanksgiving Day.
