What Are You Having For Thanksgiving?

I always like to remind my clients how fast calories can add up over the holidays. If you been training hard all year and eating right the majority of the time dig in. If not be careful. There are moderate portions. Most people probably have more than this?

1 Glass of wine………………………….120 calories
1 oz of potato chips……………………..150 calories
1 tablespoon of dip……………………...75 calories
3 cups of salad with diet dressing………100 calories
6 oz of cured ham……………………….300 calories
6 oz of turkey……………………………340 calories
½ cup of cranberry sauce………………..190 calories
½ cup of stuffing………………………...180 calories
½ cup of mashed potatoes……………….150 calories
½ cup of gravy…………………………...150 calories
½ cup of green bean casserole…………...225 calories
½ cup of candied sweet potatoes………...150 calories
1 dinner roll with butter………………….155 calories
1 piece of apple pie………………………410 calories
½ cup of ice cream………………………145 calories
1 cup of coffee with cream and sugar…...50 calories

For a Grand Total of 2,890 calories
Fun to eat but would take walking approx. 28.9 miles to burn off.
