'Twas The Week of Holiday Eating

Ahhh, the holidays. A time to gather with family and friends - and eat! For many people, the holidays are filled with sugary sweet temptations. But don't let those sabotage your healthy eating goals.

Have fun this week and celebrate the season. Then join us again on the blog in 2013 for some healthy eating tips for the new year from Leslie Bonci, R.D., director of sports nutrition at the UPMC Center for Sports Medicine.

Until then, here's a little something to think about... 

You better sauté

You better not fry

Don’t go astray

I’m telling you why

Bonci’s Laws are coming to town

Are greens on your plate

Or just on the door

Portions are great

Or stuffing in more

Bonci’s Laws are coming to town

I know when you’ve been eating

The crumbs are on your face

I know when you have sat too much

So get up and run in place

So take care of you

Be healthy, don’t ail

Swap out some sweets

For carrots and kale

Bonci’s Laws are coming to town!
