If you made it through Thanksgiving without overindulging, you are a champion! If you’re like the majority of Americans, then you most likely overindulged. Here are 4 tips to help you get back on track after one of the biggest meals of the year:

Tip 1: Load up on lean protein. Resist the urge to purge on pie for breakfast and instead start your day with a healthy, low-carb, high-protein breakfast.

Tip 2: Avoid the urge to skip meals. Don't starve yourself to “make up” for the extra calories you consumed over the holiday.

Tip 3: Hit a workout! Put all of those stored up calories to use! Hit the gym, run, lift weights – do anything and everything to get your body moving today!
