This week, with Thanksgiving only a few days away, I sat down with our Coach Cody, who is not only our Head Coach at Croga Fitness, but also one of our awesome Croga Nutrition Coaches to run through our top tips and tricks for surviving Thanksgiving Day.
These tips and tricks just so happen to be useful at ALL holidays and throughout the year at different get togethers that revolve around food, so if you didn’t catch this episode before Turkey Day, don’t skip it just yet, there’s a ton of useful information in here for you still!
We hope that you enjoy the episode and can put at least a few of this tips to good use at your next food focused gathering.
Additionally, if you are interested in one-on-one nutrition coaching or have questions you’d like us to answer, shoot us a DM on Instagram at @CrogaNutrition or send us an email to Nutrition@CrogaFitness.com and we’ll get you more info or get your questions answered in our next podcast.
We’re thankful for all of you that we know personally and all of you that are listening and supporting the show. We hope you have a wonderful and safe Thanksgiving!

Our list of 9 tips/tricks:
1. Make Breakfast and lunch High Potein, Low Carbs, Low Fat & High Fiber
2. Limit Alcohol and Pre-log it (Use Working Against Gravity Alcohol Calculator)
3. Understand which foods are unique to the holidays
4. No seconds unless you ate all of your protein and you could eat more protein with seconds
5. Sit with your back to the food if buffet style OR keep the food that's most tempting to you furthest away from you on the dinner table.
6. Drink lots of water
7. Minimize appetizers and try to only eat the ones unique to the holiday or special occasion
8. The first bite tastes the same as the last (Coach Preston) so try to have smaller portions or just a few bites of things you NEED, but you know are not "good" for you.
9. Avoid feeling guilty if things go awry
