Honey baked ham is undeniably a tasty protein to eat on holiday, but is it a cheat?

No, like you said…protein.

Yes! One of the best cheats on my plate.

Not going back for seconds during the main meal compensates enough calories to eat dessert.

True – has worked every other holiday season.

False – extra calories are extra calories.

Which of the following food contains the least amount of calories in one serving?

One slice of spinach quiche

One serving of beef lasagna

Steak

One cup of white mashed potatoes

Is the salmon with a sweet glaze healthier to eat than the white turkey meat?

Have a little salmon, eat more turkey and maybe some dessert.

No, it’s not healthier. Eat the turkey.

It’s an acceptable cheat because I don’t have dessert.

Is it better to have more “real food” rather than having dessert when cheating?

You’re eating extra calories, but it’s better to choose.

Sounds good to me.

It’s holiday cheat day – Eat. It. All.

Which dessert has the most sugar per serving?

Cheesecake

Apple Pie

Vanilla Ice Cream

Chocolate Chip Cookies

You know you’re done eating when:

You can’t breathe and might have to unbutton the pants…

When you’re content, cheat mean doesn’t mean gluttony.

When you finish eating the last course of the meal – just keep eating.

Candy canes are not too bad of a cheat, are they?

YES! Loaded with sugar and even carbs mainly derived from sugar and corn syrup.

Moderation?

Is cappuccino more like coffee than dessert?

It’s from a coffee bean, I’ll go with yes.

With the sugar and creamer most people add…it’s dessert.

Will you avoid food that you normally eat at holiday meal because it’s healthy?

Not at all, there’s plenty of veggies on my holiday meal plate.

I might avoid the salad…

I balance the good and bad on the plate.
