ilgrims probably didn't need
to diet, so for them
Thanksgiving was a deserved
chance for an all out feast.
Today, with more people conscious of
their weight, feasts can still be enjoyed
without fear of packing on unwanted
pounds. The trick, according to Weight
Watchers, is to reduce the fat and calo-
ries in favorite Thanksgiving recipes
and to be sensible about planning and
serving delicious meals.
"Preparing a healthy Thanksgiving
meal may be a contemporary idea, but
there are many traditional ways of
cooking that are inherently low in fat
and calories, such as using spices,
homemade stocks, and selecting from a
variety of delicious seasonal vegetables,"
said Maria Walls, Senior Nutritionist at
Weight Watchers International.
Here are some Weight Watchers tips:
Don't starve before the feast.
Starving yourself for a big dinner can
backfire because it can result in over-
eating. Instead, eat a mini meal such

p

as a cup of non-fat yogurt, half a
small bagel with jam, and a piece of
fruit to avoid feeling hungry. This
will stop you from overeating at the
family gathering at dinner.
Increase vegetable portions: Who
says vegetables have to be a side dish
instead of a main part of the meal?
Seasonal offerings including squash,
zucchini and succotash are terrific
sources of vitamins and minerals and
generally low in calories.
Cut the fat. Remove the skin of
the turkey before eating to cut the fat.
Select breast meat over legs or thighs
because it's the leanest.
Lighten up gravies and sauces.
Make fresh gravy rather than using
canned. Homemade stock as the basis
for soup, gravies or sauce can add fla-
vor without the hidden sodium you
may get from a can. Use the bones
from a roast combined with fresh
vegetables to create a light but potent
flavor booster. Quick tips: In the days
