MGM Supplement: OVERCOMING HOLIDAY SOCIAL EATING SABOTAGE

'Tis the season for social eating. All that food and fun can sabotage your best intentions. Want to enjoy the holidays but still stay on track? The good news is you can, and all it takes is a little preplanning. In fact, planning ahead is probably the most important strategy you can use to successfully deal with any social eating activity. Here are some easy-to-do suggestions for making the holidays a cinch to get through:

• SET A REALISTIC GOAL— Trying to lose weight during the holidays may be a self defeating goal. Maintaining your weight over the next few weeks is a good expectation to set.
• PLAN AHEAD TO PLAN AHEAD— Look ahead now at your calendar, set sometime aside to plan before you find yourself dressed up and walkingout the door to your next social event.
• DON'T GO TO A PARTY HUNGRY— If you arrive there too hungry, you won't be able to resist temptation. Eat a small healthy snack, Cinch Bar or drink your Cinch Shake before you go.

• ENJOY THE COMPANY— Spend time greeting your friends or relatives before heading for the food table or grabbing a drink.

• FILL UP ON FRESH VEGGIES— When you do hit the buffet, pile up the vegetables on your plate. A dab of dip is okay, too.

• BRING A DISH— If you've been invited to a dinner party, offer to bring a dish. Modify your favorite family recipe with a healthier option (see Cinchify Your Holiday Eating for some delicious
suggestions).

• EYEBALL YOUR PORTIONS - Dining out? Share an entrée with your dining companion, order a la carte, or set aside part of your meal to take home and enjoy the next day. Also, remember to eat slowly and focus on having a good conversation.

• ARE YOU REALLY HUNGRY? - Pay attention to your signs of true hunger and satiety. Eat when you feel the first signs of hunger, stop when you feel comfortable.

• DON'T DRINK AWAY YOUR SUCCESS - The average alcoholic drink or festival beverage, like eggnog or punch, contains 150-200 calories per glass. Lighten up with a wine spritzer or a glass of sparkling water with a wedge of lime. You'll look like you're indulging, and you'll stay more clear-headed and slimmer.

• KEEP MOVING— Don't let your busy schedule or the winter weather prevent you from exercising. Schedule your workouts and consider them just as important as any other appointment or event. If you don't have time before a big party, wear your dancing shoes and boogie the night away!
