Manage episode 519212493 series 3525146
It’s the season of mashed potatoes, pie, and stretchy pants—but what if you could enjoy all your favorite holiday foods without the crash or the guilt? In this episode, Dr. Stacy shares her practical, no-nonsense guide to building a balanced holiday plate that keeps your energy steady and your mindset strong.
You’ll learn how to beat the “I’ll start in January” cycle, calm the scarcity mindset that leads to overeating, and make simple food swaps that actually taste amazing. Plus, she shares her favorite leftover strategy for stress-free meals later (yes, turkey + roasted veggie soup is a thing!).
In this episode, you’ll discover:
✨ Why holiday meals trigger the “last chance” or scarcity mindset
🍗 The power of starting with protein (especially if you’re on a GLP-1)
🥦 How to add real color and fiber to balance your plate
🥔 Why choosing what you love most leads to better satisfaction
🧁 Smart dessert strategies that let you enjoy without overdoing it
🥡 How to pack “balanced freezer plates” and turn leftovers into healthy future meals
