Plan to avoid usual holiday weight gain

by Mary Ann Lienhart-Cross Extension Educator Elkhart County The parade of holiday goodies is marching at you, but a few simple maneuvers can keep your indulgences in check. You all know it doesn’t happen overnight—it’s 300 calories here, 500 calories there. But before you know it, you have gained five to seven pounds. That’s the amount you can gain by indulging in the parade of goodies that started at Thanksgiving and continues unabated until Super Bowl Sunday. If you are eating holiday goodies, it is not hard to add 500 calories a day to your food consumption. An example would be four ounces of eggnog (335), one ounce of peanut brittle (123) and a chocolate chip cookie (46), for a total of 504 calories. Another example would be one piece of pecan pie (334), one chocolate brownie (130) and a gingersnap (34), for a total of 498 calories. Now you should look at the positive side. Gaining weight, however, is not a given during the holiday season. You’ll gain a significant amount of weight only if you consistently overeat. Consider the mathematics of weight gain. You

have to overeat by approximately 3,500 calories to gain a pound. If you need 1,800 calories per day to maintain your weight, yet you consume 2,300 calories, you’ll gain a pound in a week’s time—an extra 500 calories times seven days equals 3,500 calories. The best way to avoid weight gain is to go easy on fatty foods like pastries, cookies, doughnuts, regular cheese, gravy, fried foods, nuts and chips. Note, too, that the calories in alcoholic beverages can really add up. Also, each tablespoon of butter, margarine, mayonnaise or oil provides about 100 calories. Instead, use low or non-fat versions of these foods. Whenever possible, select fruits and vegetables, lean meats, skinless poultry, fish, low-fat or skim milk dairy products, and complex carbohydrate foods, like pasta, rice, cereals and low-fat bread. If you follow these basic, yeararound guidelines throughout the holidays, you will be able to afford occasional indulgences, even an entire meal made the way grandmother used to make them. You will pack on pounds only if you throw caution to the wind for the entire five to six weeks of holiday festivities.
