Remember: 

  1. You don’t have to eat a bunch of food all at once.  
  1. PORTION SIZE PORTION SIZE PORTION SIZE!  
  1. If you plan to have your Thanksgiving dinner later in the day DON’T SKIP BREAKFAST & LUNCH 
  1. Planning to stay at one place all day and want to try all the foods, taste everything in small portions and come back later 
  1. Carrying a drink in your dominate hand will keep you from subconsciously overeating. (No, I don’t mean alcohol or soda LMAO) 
  1. DON’T LET THE FOOD COMA GET YOU.  
  1. HAVE FUN AND GIVE THANKS!
