How to Avoid Weight Gain During the Holidays!
With the holidays fast approaching, Michelle Lesueur, Director of Product Education and Development of FGXpress shared tips on how to avoid gaining weight during the holidays.
Between the office parties, family events and other social gatherings, it gets pretty difficult to get through the holidays without gaining weight. On average, most people gain between 5-10 pounds between November and January. Many of the foods that we consume during the holidays such as sweets, treats and alcoholic beverages are weight gainers. When you consume these type of treats, your body creates an insulin response every time. When insulin is released, it tends to direct the weight gain towards your mid-section.
Here are some tricks to avoid gaining those pesky holiday pounds:
1. When arriving to a party, first look for food high in protein! This can include turkey, beef, chicken, fish, etc. If the party is mostly going to serve snack foods, have a protein drink such as Thunder or FIXX right before heading to your party. Eat as much protein as you can! 
2. Next, look for salad and/or raw vegetables! Remember that raw vegetables are negative calories. It takes more calories to eat, chew and digest than the amount of calories found in most raw vegetables.
If raw vegetables aren’t available, look for cooked vegetables that you can enjoy. 
By eating protein and vegetables first, you’re cutting the insulin response from treats and high glycemic carbs. Protein and fiber slow insulin response therefore reducing the amount of fat stored from foods. You’ll also find that you won’t get that sugar high and then crash an hour later. Your energy will stay balanced. If you eat like this on a day-to-day basis, you will notice inch and pound loss.
Don’t forget to enjoy yourself and eat dessert or breads; just remember that moderation is key!
Another way to avoid weight gain during the Holidays is to use KETOPIA!
Many people have decided to reset their bodies with the Ketopia 10-Day Reset during this busy and fun, yet often stressful time of the year. The Ketopia 10 Day Reset includes 10 snacks, 20 meals and helps your body burn FAT as FUEL rather than carbs and sugars.

(The program includes KetonX: a drink that puts your body in nutritional ketosis within an hour or two, Dough Bites, FIXX shake).
