Don't Count Calories Incessantly. This is unnecessary and will
drive your loved ones crazy and yourself too. Let's face it; there are enough
stressors around the Holidays to worry about. Gaining an extra few pounds
should be the least of your troubles! The best thing you can do if you are already
dieting is to watch not what you eat, but how much of it you are eating instead of
trying to keep track of your caloric intake. Unless of course you are on a strict
diet and need to avoid things that contain higher carbohydrates, sugars, etc. In
this case, you would obviously want to avoid eating things like potatoes, breads,
cookies, candies, cakes, etc.
