If the fear of holiday weight gain stresses you out, here are 4 tips to help you undiet your holidays and savor more of what matters most – delicious food shared with friends and family.

If you’re stuck with good-food, bad-food ping-pong thoughts, let’s shake up your holiday mindset this year. Instead, lean into savoring the season without food shame, and guilt. Here’s how.

In this episode, we'll at what the science says about the average amount of weight people gain during the holidays (it's not as much as you think!)

I offer you 4 tips to help you avoid the fear and stress of holiday weight gain including:

Tip 1: Practice gentle nutrition basics and compassionate curiosity. 

Tip 2: Practice balanced nutrition with as many meals and snacks as possible.

Tip 3: Add variety to meals and snacks without thinking too hard.

Tip 4: Move your body in ways you enjoy for 15-20 minutes a few times during the week.

There’s no guarantee these tips will keep you from gaining weight during the holidays. But if you practice them consistently, they will get you off the weight loss, weight gain roller coaster for good.
