Hey friend,

Today, I’m continuing my 6-week series about how to enjoy the holidays…without sabotaging your hormones or gaining weight.

Did you know the average person consumes a whopping 4,500 calories on Thanksgiving?

That's the equivalent of 16 slices of pizza, 61 chicken wings, or 28 glazed donuts!!!
And all those extra calories aren’t even the worst of it! Because what we eat can have an even bigger impact on our hormones--and hormonal symptoms--than how much we eat.

In today’s quick-tip episode, I’m sharing “5 Nutrition Hacks To Prevent Holiday Overeating & Control Cravings.”

Join me as I unpack:

• The four holiday ingredients that can negatively affect your hormones

• The best Thanksgiving dishes to curb cravings and suppress hunger

• Why skipping breakfast to save calories can backfire (and what to do instead)

• The one carb you want to make sure to include plenty of on your holiday plate

Plus, I’ll share my #1 secret for hacking your bio-chemistry when your body wants sugar

If your plan for eating healthy holiday eating is “willpower” (Spoiler alert: Willpower is not a plan!), this episode is for you.
