[powerpress_playlist ids=”128849″]

We’re approaching “the most wonderful time of the year”! But unfortunately for most Americans, it can also be the most health-wrecking time of the year. In fact, the average American gains 5 lbs over the month between Thanksgiving and Christmas! 

But the good news is, with a few tips and tricks, you can have your cake and eat it too! 

On this episode I offer my holiday supplement recommendations, and healthier alcoholic drink alternatives to serve at your holiday party (that is IF you drink – otherwise don’t start!) I also reveal what foods and beverages my wife and I ‘pre-game’ with to help us avoid eating foods we’ll regret later. 

Last, I share  my best holiday recipes and ingredient swaps – so you can enjoy holiday foods you love…that actually love you back! 

On this episode you’ll learn:

• Why doing THIS before a holiday meal may save you a from a few pounds of weight gain (4:00) 
• What to fill your plate with on Thanksgiving (and what to absolutely avoid) (6:30)  
• Tips for staying in ketosis through the holidays (even when enjoying alcohol in moderation) (11:45)
