December Healthy Bytes: How to Avoid Holiday Party Weight Gain

'Tis the season for cookies, cakes, celebrations, and champagne. But the holidays can be healthy too!

Start with a smaller plate during holiday meals, and fill up first with vegetables and salad. Eat slowly and wait a full 10 minutes before going up for seconds.

After dessert, add a bit of physical activity to your nighttime routine -- either a walk or break out those dancing shoes. And don't forget to enjoy yourself during the holidays, after all, life is all about moderation!
