Tips for a Healthy Holiday

wellness image.

Ahhhhhhh... a holiday. Time for some rest and relaxation. Time to unwind. Time to get away from it all, at least for a little while. Quality time with your significant other, family and/or friends. Time to pack on the pounds? Not necessarily!

Want to do it differently this year? Time away from your daily routine doesn't have to mean automatic weight gain. Too many of us justify poor eating choices and food/drink excesses with the all too common, "But I'm on holiday!"

There are many healthy options to choose from wherever you go - you just need to be mindful of them. Here are a few suggestions:

  • If there's a buffet, don't make a repeat trip. Fill your plate with fruits and vegetables and then add other choices. Beware those cream sauces - try to keep it light!
  • You're not in your childhood home... you don't have to eat everything to get some dessert. Eat slowly and remember that it takes 20 minutes for your brain to get the signal from your stomach that it's full. If you eat until you feel full, you've eaten too much.
  • Sipping umbrella drinks on the beach or by the pool is certainly tempting, but alcohol contains a lot of sugary calories. Beer and wine have lower calorie counts and are better choices, in moderation.
  • Why are desserts always so plentiful? Make them a special once-in-awhile treat, choose fruit, or split it with someone.
  • Find out if the hotel has an exercise room. Cruise ships tend to have fantastic exercise facilities. Be sure to pack some shoes to exercise in. Take long walks and take in the local scenery.
  • Don't be afraid to ask for menu substitutions. Substitute steamed veges for french fries or mashed potatoes. Avoid fried foods the best you can.
  • Bring along some high-fiber snacks. Nuts, granola, and multi-grain crackers are good snack choices and they don't need to be kept cold.
  • Ask for low-calorie/low fat menu choices. Ask about local restaurants that feature healthy food choices.
  • Drink plenty of water (bottled, depending on where you go). Have it served with lemon or a "splash" of cranberry juice for some refreshing flavor.
  • Consider half-portions if they're available on the menu. If not, decide to eat only half of whatever is put before you and take the rest with you.

A new, relaxing environment can be a time when you try different foods and rest. But if you follow some of these suggestions, you can maintain your "before" weight and save yourself a "post-holiday" diet!

Dr. Fowler Asks some important questions of interest to Rowlett residents - Chiropractor Rowlett Dr. Fowler Asks...

Can someone who has had back surgery receive chiropractic care?
Yes. Rest assured that we will avoid the surgically modified areas of your spine. However, what we find is that surgical interventions will often produce spinal instability above or below the involved level. This is will be the focus of your chiropractic care.
What's a side effect?
It may sound like a bonus; something extra, but chiropractors know it should more accurately called an "unintended effect," and "unwanted effect" or in some cases an "adverse effect." A pill can't come close to matching your body's ability to create and deliver the essential compounds it needs. That's when it's important to make sure your nervous system is working correctly—the purpose of chiropractic care!
