Keeping trim over the holiday season

Yes you can enjoy great food over the holidays.
Travel, dinner parties, picnics and holiday feasts are all opportunities to try new foods, savour your favourites and indulge a little.
Fill your plate a third full of meats, nuts and cheeses; a third with bread, pasta and rice and; a third of fruit and vegetables. Choose a variety of colours as you're building up your festive plate, enjoy the visual display, the aromas, the tastes and textures of the food you've chosen. One plate will be more than enough so you don't need to have seconds!
If you're having a special drink, whether it's alcohol or a soft drink, have just one or two and sip slowly to make them last - fill a glass with ice then pour your favourite soft drink over it; indulge in a boutique beer; sip on a fancy umbrella cocktail; buy the best bottle of wine. When you get thirsty, have a glass of water.
Get outdoors and active with friends and family - backyard cricket, frisbees, go for a walk, kick a ball around, play tag or stuck in the mud or leapfrog.
Get a good night's sleep to let those fat burning hormones kick in and to recharge your body so you can do it all again the next day.
The holidays are a great time to enjoy a variety of food, be active and get plenty of rest.
