Thanksgiving is full of family, food, and well deserved downtime. It can also be a time when healthy habits take a back seat. A few simple choices can keep your energy steady and your routine intact without missing out on your favorite traditions. These tips are easy to follow and help you feel your best through the holiday weekend.
Start the morning with movement:
A brisk walk, a light jog, or a short at home workout (perhaps from Fit Snack) sets the tone for the day. Getting your blood flowing helps balance stress and appetite before the big meal.
Hydrate before the celebrations begin
Most people mistake thirst for hunger. Drink a full glass of water when you wake up and sip throughout the day to stay energized and avoid overeating.
Eat a balanced breakfast
Skipping meals to save room usually backfires. Choose a protein rich breakfast with whole grains and fruit to keep your metabolism steady.
Load your plate with color
At dinner, aim to fill half your plate with vegetables before selecting heavier sides. This helps you enjoy your favorites without feeling sluggish afterward.
Pause before you grab seconds
Give yourself ten minutes to check in with your hunger level before going back for more. You will feel more satisfied and more in control of your portions.
Choose healthier drink options
Sparkling water with citrus, low sugar mocktails, or a light spritz can save calories that add up quickly. Try mixing in Teko Yerba Mate for sustained energy throughout the day. Staying hydrated also helps you feel better the next day.
Add protein to your snacks
If you graze throughout the day, pair items like crackers or fruit with protein. Nuts, jerky, protein bars, or Greek yogurt help stabilize blood sugar and curb cravings. Fitzels also help satisfy your sweet tooth and provides a protein packed snack.
Get outside after dinner
A short post meal walk helps digestion and boosts your mood. It is also a great way to spend time with family without hovering around leftovers.
Protect your sleep routine
Late nights can throw off your hunger cues the next day. Aim to keep a consistent bedtime and reduce screen time before bed.
Bring healthy snacks for travel
Whether you are flying or driving, pack options that keep you full and focused. Protein bars, veggie snacks, or Fit Snack favorites help you avoid convenience store temptations.
Thanksgiving is the perfect time to enjoy good food and good company without losing sight of your wellness goals. With a few intentional choices, you can stay on track and still appreciate every flavor and moment. If you need healthy snacks for road trips, workouts, or the busy holiday season, your next Fit Snack box has you covered.
If you’ve been with Fit Snack for more than a month, you know that Ultima Replenisher is one of our longest-running partners. What you may not know is that earlier this summer, we teamed up on a mission to help not only our subscribers but our COVID front line workers.
You may be wondering, why is Fit Snack making such a big deal about hydration during the pandemic?
When it comes to fighting illness-triggered dehydration, fluids aren’t the only factor. Electrolytes are important in maintaining the body’s pH levels and helping cells absorb and use the fluids you’re taking in. Ultima Replenisher’s natural, vegan/keto-friendly electrolyte powder is helping thousands ward of dehydration and keep themselves hydrated the clean way. Ultima Replenisher is an advanced, balanced electrolyte drink that provides highly effective hydration using only clean ingredients, electrolytes and no sugar, calories, or carbs.
