Holiday parties bring lots of cookies, biscuits, and other naughty treats that can add up quickly! In fact, Marie Claire magazine has counted the typical holiday meal below as 800 calories!
Two glasses of wine.
Two pigs in a blanket (or similar foods, such as mini tacos or small sliders without the bun),
Three shrimp with a tablespoon of cocktail sauce (or citrus-based tartar).
Two tablespoons of hummus with unlimited vegetables.
One fried hors d'oeuvre.
A small sweet treat (such as a brownie square or tartlet)
You'd have to do quite a bit of working out in a day to burn that off. Probably about 60 minutes of jogging, depending on your weight.
Don't stress! Here are some tips on how to fight the cookie and other food temptations during the holiday party season:
- Eat a full and healthy meal right before you head to the party.
- Use a small plate and fill it up at the veggie tray.
- Don't go for seconds!
- Be the "talk" of the party--conversate with your friends and you'll soon be too distracted to visit the dessert table.
- Be the photographer. Taking pics will keep your hands and your brain busy.

I wish I had enought willpower for that!
This is really a big challenge! It's hard to avoid eating junk foods, cookies and biscuits especially during holiday parties but instead of eating these unhealthy food, try to eat more vegetables and fruits to be more healthy. It's hard but you need to try to prevent health problems.
