candy (preferably from your own stash an not your child’s) a day.
6. Pass on the PSL
As we enter the holiday season, we’re instantly bombarded with all things Pumpkin Spice, Eggnog, Peppermint Mocha, Christmas Cookie and Caramel Brulée.
Unfortunately for coffee lovers, one pumpkin spice latte (PSL) (grande/Starbucks) can run you 390 calories – a venti, 470 calories. To add some perspective, that’s the equivalent of two candy bars.
7. Un-stuff your stuffing
I’d be lying if I said this one didn’t hit me in the heart. But, according to the USDA, 1/3 cup of bread stuffing can run you upwards of 162 calories.
Instead, opt for a medley of kale, butternut squash (or zucchini), tomatoes, quinoa, and other fall faves for a great source of antioxidants and vitamins.
