How to eat healthy on Thanksgiving
Want to have a healthier Thanksgiving tomorrow? Simply avoid the high-sugar, high-starch, and high-fat "extras" that make up a huge portion of the calories in a typical Thanksgiving dinner. These include things like gravy, butter rolls, white potatoes, cranberry sauce, 'candied' yams, etc.
Instead, fill up on lean proteins - like white turkey meat and baked ham - as well as non-starchy vegetables and salads with low-fat (or olive oil-based) dressing. Eat enough of these things and you won't be tempted to eat very much of the bad stuff. Of course, a small piece of pumpkin pie won't kill you -- especially if it's made with low-sugar pumpkin filling and whole wheat crust!
And, no matter what, have a GREAT Thanksgiving holiday!!
