Tips for Staying Low-Carb During The Holidays

Be Realistic

Set yourself up with realistic goals to stay low-carb. Being surrounded by sweet treats and holiday meal options will tempt you towards eating the wrong things.

Keep some healthy low-carb options with you at all times so that you can avoid eating too many sweet treats and high-carb dishes during holiday gatherings.

Write it Down

Keeping a food diary as been a proven way for people to stay low-carb all year round, but it's especially important during the holiday season.

Keep a small pad of paper with you at all times to write down your food and beverage intake. This will keep your motivation strong and will hold you accountable for all that you eat during the holidays.

Place Focus on Socializing

While you may be surrounded by tempting food during the holiday festivities, it's important to remember that this is the time of year to socialize with friends and family.

Make it a point to place focus on socializing versus eating so that you can reduce your cravings for those delicious food options!

Ask The Host & Bring Your Own Dishes

It won't hurt to ask the host of your next holiday festivity if they'll offer any low-carb options. If they were not planning on it, they may be fine with you bringing your side dish, meal option, or dessert that fits the low-carb diet plan you're on. Other guests may enjoy a low-carb option with you during holiday gatherings.
