Stay Fit This Christmas

by Maryann Pisano on December 24, 2012

Emme chatted with Megan Vaccaro founder of MegaFit, to get some holiday health tips.  Enjoy your food, but in moderation!

Desserts:

Megan says:  “Eat a cookie that’s worth it.  Don’t just eat it to eat.  Make your splurges worth it.”  During the holidays, the food seems endless.  Go into your holiday dinner with a smart mind about your portions.

Fill Up On:

Megan says:  “Vegetables!”  Vaccaro suggests filling half your plate with greens.  Other than veggies, try to eat options that are whole grain and avoid buttery sauces.

Winter Workout Ideas:

Megan says:  “push ups, squats, lunges, jumping jacks, and planks.”  All these exercises can be done at home if snow and ice keeps you from the gym.

Holiday No No:

Megan says:  “Anything white!”  Foods that are white usually are high in sugar and carbs.  Stick to colorful veggies.

Holiday Super Food:

Megan says:  “Sweet potatoes.”
