Hey everybody, welcome back to the Dr. Terri show. In today’s episode, we’re diving into the holiday season—a time for celebrations, indulgence, and, let’s be honest, the dreaded 10-pound weight gain.

Joining me is Elizabeth DiMeo, a functional dietitian, and we’re sharing five practical tips to help you navigate all those parties, family gatherings, and festive treats without feeling deprived—or overwhelmed when January rolls around.

Here’s what we cover in this episode:

• 
  Don't starve before the big meal. We discuss why skipping meals backfires and how to plan your pre-party snacks wisely.


• 
  Choose your indulgences carefully. Whether it’s dessert or cocktails, you’ll learn how to enjoy your favorites guilt-free by making intentional choices.


• 
  Move your body! From morning workouts to simply parking farther away, we talk about easy ways to stay active during this hectic season.


• 
  Bring a healthy dish. Elizabeth shares her go-to ideas for delicious, festive dishes like shrimp cocktail and cauliflower appetizers.


• 
  Sweat out the stress. Find out how sweating—whether through exercise or a sauna session—can help combat holiday bloat and water retention.

Plus, we tackle tricky holiday dilemmas like politely declining Aunt Sue’s infamous casserole, why hydration is key, and fun ideas for lighter desserts that everyone will love.
