Before you hit the dessert table or even the main course, don’t ignore that fruit and vegetable tray! Filling up on clean, whole, raw fruits and veggies will help you fill up quickly with the nutrient-dense good stuff and with minimal calories and unnecessary additives.

Keep the dressing, oils, creams and extra sugars to a minimum (if not avoid them completely) and still enjoy the other courses to your heart’s content! This healthy habit over the next couple of months will keep you feeling lighter and still fully satisfied without deprivation. Eventually you might even retrain your cravings to opt for more clean, whole foods without really trying.

Enjoy!!!
