Now, back to nutrition over the holidays.

It’s the season of eating. Family gatherings, holiday parties, and Thanksgiving meals can feel overwhelming for people with nutrition and or weight loss goals.

Brittany Dagenais and Piper Miedema recommend not restricting your diet in these scenarios and instead opt for smaller portions.

They also suggest eating a nutrition-packed breakfast or lunch before your holiday meal to avoid overeating later in the day.

But if you do overeat, remember that one meal or one day of overeating will not make or break your nutrition goals.
