Tips to Avoid Holiday Weight Gain # 7


While the holiday season is a time of happiness, many people also find it’s a time of high stress. Family obligations and concerns about money spent on gifts often cause people to turn to food as a stress relieving device.

Tip# 7: Develop Strategies To Deal With Stress

Seek ways to relieve stress that don’t involve food. It may be the perfect time to sign up for a yoga class or join a gym. Read a book or learn a craft, such as knitting, and make it a point to turn to those activities when you feel stressed. Feel free to pamper yourself with a massage or a trip to a museum. The most important thing is to find ways to help yourself manage stress, without turning to food for comfort
