It’s that time. Between Thanksgiving and Christmas there are holiday parties everywhere you look. Whether it’s an office party, a get together with friends, or the holiday party at your child’s school, they are everywhere. And the one thing these parties typically have in common: food! Unfortunately, healthy food isn’t quite as big of a hit at these parties so sticking with a healthy eating plan becomes tricky. The key is to have a good time without negating that progress you make every other day of the week.

There are a few things you can do to make the damage minimal at these holiday parties. While it is somewhat unreasonable to ask you to not eat anything off your diet, it’s not out of line to tell you not to completely blow it either. It’s all about balance when it comes to healthy eating at a holiday party.

Here are some tips to keep your healthy eating in check:

1. Eat before you go. Eat something healthy before you leave the house. Showing up to a holiday party famished is a surefire way of doing some damage. Instead, have a bowl of vegetable soup or even a full meal beforehand. Having something on your stomach will make it easier to just say no!

2. Make one trip. Typically snacks are laid out on a table for everyone to munch at these sort of events. Fill up a plate knowing it will be your only. Allow yourself a few treats on there so you don’t feel deprived but don’t return to the snack table afterwards.

3. Bring a healthy option. If you are friends with the hostess ask if you can bring a tray to add to the collection. They’ll think you’re merely helping out but this is one way to ensure there’s at least one healthy eating option. Crudités or grilled chicken appetizers are both great options here.

4. Watch the liquid calories. Holiday parties are as known for their liquid treats as they are for the food. Choose beverages made with limited sugar and steer clear of things like beer or champagne. Allow yourself a glass or two of wine and then stop. It’s much easier to throw drinks back in a social setting, so beware of this sneaky diet disaster.

Holiday parties don’t have to be a drag for people watching what they eat. Healthy eating can fairly easily be incorporated without an accompanying sense of deprivation. Celebrate, have a few treats, and then get right back to business the next day!

Making a lifestyle change like healthy eating and regular exercise requires the support of others. This can be difficult when you are the only one in your household interested in getting fit and caring for your body. While it is very difficult to make lifestyle changes like this alone, it is even harder when you are tempted by someone not making the same choices as you.

You can’t make someone else care about their body and your motivation to be healthy won’t necessarily be contagious to the other people of your household. It is in situations like this that you must remain steadfast and dedicated to your healthy eating and fitness goals.

Anytime you try to make a change in your life for the better, it likely seems that things pop up to keep you from reaching your goals. While this is a strange coincidence many of us face, it isn’t a reason to give up. Instead, such situations should be used as motivation. See them as a test against your healthy eating and fitness goals. When you can overcome odds like this to succeed you will find your confidence going through the roof!

Healthy eating for one in a household of two or more can be difficult but is far from impossible. If you are the cook of the house simply tell the others things are going to change. In the case of other adults, they may no longer want to eat your health food. If so, let them prepare their own meals. In the case of children, tweaking your recipes slightly can keep your kids eating healthy without pushing them away from nutritious foods.

When committing to healthy eating you are automatically putting your health needs first, and that’s the way it should be. No one else but you will make your health needs a priority. Don’t allow people at home or the office to sway you, instead seek out people that will support your healthy eating changes and perhaps even share in your goals.

Everyone wants to be fit. Everyone wants to be healthy. Getting there is the hard part. For many of us, healthy eating is where the challenge lies. Working out may come easy but reigning in those eating habits is another story. In an effort to master healthy eating, we may try low carb, high carb, carb cycling, high protein, low fat, or any other combination that promises to be the “answer” to our weight and eating struggles.

When it really comes down to it, these plans may provide success to some, but for many they are just another route to the same result. We try something that could deliver healthy results but we are set up by the restrictive nature of the diet. Healthy eating requires going back to basics and finding what specifically works for you.

Everyone is different and so is every body. We all process foods slightly differently. For some, carbohydrates cause immediate weight gain or sluggishness. For others, a diet low in carbohydrates feels like a diet without any energy source. The fact is, no diet is the perfect diet for everyone. Healthy eating involves figuring out what works for you and your body.

So, how do you know what healthy eating habits work for you? Well, it’s a little bit of trial and error. However, that doesn’t mean go buy a chocolate cake and see how it makes you feel: You Know That’s Unhealthy! Adults know the difference between healthy foods and unhealthy foods. Don’t eat the unhealthy ones! Does this mean you will never have a Big Mac again? No, it means you will regulate your eating and have a Big Mac, when you feel like your body can handle the extra calories and a little treat.

Stick to healthy eating, the foods you know to be good for you. Adjusting your protein, carbs, and fat to an optimal level for you will take practice. As you learn more about your body through working out and eating, how your body feels after certain meals or days will become more apparent and you will be better able to decide what foods are the right ones for your healthy eating plan.
