节日保持健康的9个小贴士

4. Indulge in only the most special holiday treats.
只在最特别的节日大餐里一饱口福

Skip the store-bought cookies, but do save some calories in your 'budget' to sample treats that are homemade and special to your family, such as your wife's special cake. Training yourself what to indulge in and what to skip is much like budgeting your mad money: Do you want to blow it on garbage that you can buy anywhere or on a very special, one-of-a-kind souvenir? Just don't completely deprive yourself on festive days - your willpower will eventually snap, and you'll end up overeating.
别再吃那些商店买来的饼干了，但是在你的“胃口预算”里为那些对你的家庭来说有特别意义的家庭大餐留一些卡路里额度，比如说你妻子特制的爱心蛋糕。训练自己什么可以放开吃，什么不该吃，这就好像为你的零花钱做一个预算：你是想买一件到处都可以买到的破烂货还是想买一样非常特别，独一无二的纪念品？不要指望在节日里完全管住嘴，——那样的话你的意志力会慢慢消退，最后反倒会吃得更多。
