Show Notes
Be honest—you're already thinking about it. That voice saying "I'll just enjoy the holidays and deal with it in January." You know exactly what happens next: 10 pounds of bloating, water retention, and regret somewhere between Halloween candy and New Year's champagne.
But what if you didn't have to choose between enjoying the holidays and feeling good in your body?
With Thanksgiving just 2 days away, Dr. Terri is bringing back the conversation that resonated most during last year's holiday season—her practical, no-nonsense discussion with functional dietitian Elizabeth DiMeo on how to navigate the next six weeks WITHOUT the January regret.
In this episode, you'll discover:
Why skipping meals to "save up" for Thanksgiving dinner actually sabotages your metabolism
The ONE decision at the dessert table that changes everything (dessert OR alcohol—Elizabeth explains why)
Elizabeth's secret weapon appetizers you should bring to every holiday party (so you always have something guilt-free)
The buffalo cauliflower recipe that tastes so good you won't believe it's healthy
Her genius vodka-and-tomato trick that makes you the hit of the party
The truth about portion sizes (spoiler: a serving of cheese is just 2 dice)
Smart strategies for navigating office parties, family dinners, and cookie exchanges
This isn't about deprivation or restriction. Elizabeth gets it—she's Italian, she loves food, she literally just got back from France eating all the cheese. This is about STRATEGY. It's about making choices that let you enjoy yourself without spending January feeling bloated, inflamed, and defeated.
You still have time to grab ingredients before Thursday. You can still volunteer to bring that one dish that will save you. You can still set yourself up for success.
Two days until Thanksgiving. Let's make this the year you break the cycle.
