Holiday weight gain is a common concern for many adults. Holiday parties and traditions may encourage overeating, sedentary behavior, and consumption of calorie-rich foods. In fact, between mid-November and mid-January, adults gain an average of 1 to 5 pounds.
This may not seem like a lot, but most people don’t lose this extra weight. Therefore, holidays — no matter the time of year — may be one of the biggest contributors to your total annual weight gain.
That said, holiday weight gain is not inevitable. This morning we will talk with Sereen and get some tips and wisdom for healthy eating during the holidays.
