After a long hectic week for my husband and of course me ( at least I was giving him moral support)... It's a THANKSGIVING week next on cards. It will be fun time with family and friends. But what I was wondering, with lot of fun and food there will be lot of  calories I will be counting on myself... Whfffff....but a little mind game and knowledge of healthy tips will wipe your worries.

Of course I am not giving idea of skipping the party... After all it's once in a year...the whole idea is how you become your own guide and choose the right way of enjoying. We start with if you are a host and playing with the guest list and invitations. It will be advisable to spend little more time thinking of some new innovative dishes for the party. There are few tips that will help you guard your intake of calories and at the same time allow you to splurge in the festive mood. 

Don't deviate from the rule of having small and frequent meals. This goes straight for those who plan to skip their breakfast in order to gauge on the dinner table.  In that case you will  end up eating more to fill in the empty pot. 

Next rule is to watch your spoon size. Eat slowly and chew well. Avoid to jump on to the second serving, this will help you to have the best taste of the served food along with eating just the right amount.

Start exploring the dinner layout with the salads first. They are your best friend as they will help you and will not hurt you. As a host of the night, have more options in salads along with some interesting dips. 
How can we not talk about the masterpiece of the party.....TURKEY.... Don't let it fly off. Use the best cooking method, bake it  with good vegetable and fruit filling. That will add on an extra taste with health in each single bite... Yummy.

Even after such easy tips you happen to indulge in overrating.... Put on your track suit and go for a nice jog. But for the time being, happy thanksgiving to all. Eat wisely, live nicely.
