For many people, the Christmas holiday revolves around big meals with all of the fixings. If you don't follow some practical protocol, you could find yourself knee deep in a bad binge. Start the morning off with a balanced breakfast. Throughout the day, bypass the holiday cookies, cakes, pastries and pies. Save your calories for the actual meal. Offer to help wherever you can... except the kitchen. You don't want to run the risk of grazing on a bite here and there. Think about what you're going to eat at the Christmas meal. Allot for those calories and mentally prepare yourself for avoiding diet pitfalls such as breads, gravies, creamy casseroles.
