Absolutely the best free weight loss diet program online!

Skip those tempting appetizers. Each luscious and sinful bite contains about 100 calories or more a pop! It's not worth it. Instead, focus on enjoying an entire slice of pie with your holiday meal.

Opt for unsweetened beverages. Sweeten with no calorie packets. A lemon or lime will add beauty to your beverage without spiking up the calories.

Speaking of spiking - trot away from the holiday spirits and save a ton of calories (and hiccups to boot!).

Allow the no calorie butter sprays to become your very comfortable crutch! If you opt for real butter/margarine, try to use sparingly - about one half the amount you usually use.

Cranberry sauce is very high in calories. It's very deceiving because it's made from fruit (the cranberry). In fact, the innocent looking cranberry was probably the culprit in the Garden of Eden rather than the good apple.

Pecan pie. "Just say NO." It's pure unadulterated sugar! White sugar, brown sugar, and syrup AND nuts. So, steer clear if you are watching your waistline.

Leave the cheese balls and the nut dish alone. Let your skinny Aunt Freda devour at will. As for the nuts, they contain about 400 calories per cup and are extremely high in fat.

Don't feel obligated to eat anything that you don't want to. Many times, people innocently concoct a holiday goody that's loaded with so much sugar that it would give an army of bats rotten teeth. If you find yourself locked in a situation where you just can't say no, then take the treat and discretely find a method of disposal. (Don't give kitty or puppy anything containing chocolate.) (Don't flush large objects down the toilet.)

Eat very slowly and savor each and every bite. It takes about 20 minutes before your stomach registers what your mouth put inside.

Dinner - try to eat very light OR skip entirely.

Although 1,240 calories is nothing to brag about, it's a lot better than 4,575, isn't it? You can cut the calorie/fat content further still by omitting items from your holiday meal. For instance, settle for just one dessert or omit either the mashed potato or the sweet potato. Forego the cranberry sauce, or have a small Tablespoon instead.

If you find yourself just wanting to enjoy the day without the stress of dieting, then enjoy! Yes, there aren't many diet sites that will tell you that, are there? This is the tradeoff..... If you decide to let loose, you MUST get very serious the following day. Plan to gain about 1-3 pounds, depending on how 'ape' you decide to go. Promise yourself that you'll be very good during the next week by watching your daily food intake, and by exercising every other day (walking at least 1 mile every other day should do).

If you need to lose weight, or if you would simply like to get fit, please plan to hit the weight loss trail with me when the New Year strikes in. It's very easy to get caught up in the holiday spirit and before we know what has happened, we have eaten far too much. Then we are seized with feelings of guilt, with insecurity, and sometimes with a feeling of hopelessness because we think it's impossible to lose all the unwanted weight.

So please plan to join us at Diet Bites during the coming year. We'll show you how to manage your weight, how to lose unwanted pounds safely, and tricks and tips that really work. Your cost? It's free! You won't find that at a lot of other diet sites, either.

On that note, Happy Holidays - and thank you very much for visiting Diet Bites!
