In fact, most people forget to drink adequate water during the Holidays; instead they choose to drink hot (and usually caffeinated) drinks to stay warm during the winter such as coffee, tea, and hot chocolate. Consuming adequate water will keep the body hydrated and help flush out extra "junk" accumulating during typical Holiday eating! Great suggestion about drinking water before a big meal.

It's especially important in today's economy-we can't afford to gain weight and get sick which leads to co-pays and missed work. We all need to stay healthy and strive to reach and maintain a healthy weight so that we can look good, feel good, and save money! One way to save calories at the holidays is to stay hydrated, and watch what you drink. Calories from alcohol, egg nog, creamy hot chocolate, and the punch bowl really add up. Before you leave for the party, drink water to take the edge off your hunger and to stay hydrated. Lots of people confuse thirst with hunger, and eat when they are thirsty thinking that it's hunger. A 20oz bottle of vitaminwater gives you healthy hydration with four B vitamins and 100% of your daily value of vitamin C, all for about 130 calories. If you do end up drinking alcohol, the extra hydration and B vitamins from the vitaminwater will make you feel better the next morning. During the holiday season, load up your fridge with a variety of flavors of vitaminwater to remind yourself to stay hydrated and on track with your healthy eating plan. It's free of artificial sweeteners, sodium, artificial colors, and is also gluten free. We can avoid holiday weight gain by using our common sense.

I'm a big fan of http://www.hyperwear.com . Maybe it's just my personality, but when I find something I like, I go crazy over it. Probably just a little bit of OCD disorder. Yeah, I think is a great recommendation for people to avoid that holiday weight gain. I am a maniac! The fitness maniac.. Bruce Betty,
