1.  Start with a Healthy Breakfast- Breakfast really is the most important meal of the day. If you start your day with a clean breakfast, your body is more nourished and you will be less likely to eat more throughout your day. I know being a busy professional that breakfast can be easy to skip in the morning rush. But I also know when I skip breakfast I feel hungry daily. My favorite breakfast 1 scoop chocolate Shakeology, 4 ounces almond milk, 6 ounces cold coffee, ice and blend

2. Eat frequently to stay on track-Just because it’s a time for celebration doesn’t mean it’s time to throw all you’ve learned out the window. If you’re eating clean now, that means you’re eating every three to four hours anyway. Eating frequent meals will help you to keep from overeating when you sit down to enjoy holiday meals.
