Building a strong nutritional baseline is the key to sustainable, healthy holiday eating. Don't derail for your health & fitness goals due to the holidays!

How to Build a Nutrition Baseline

Building a nutritional baseline is the ultimate holiday eating hack that let's you truly enjoy special holidays meals and days without totally derailing from your health and fitness goals.

What is a nutritional baseline and how do you build yours?

A nutritional baseline is a normal, habitual way of eating that you do seven days a week that brings you toward your goals. You know how it feels and looks, you know which foods and in what quantities it consists of.

Essentially, you can mindlessly return to this baseline because it is your nutritional normal or your nutritional north.

How does this apply to holiday eating, though?

Those truly special days that you want to enjoy and not track, you should do so.

The surrounding days and really the vast majority of the days during the holiday period, however, you need to eat at your baseline.

For some, the holiday season can go from before Halloween through the Super Bowl. That's getting close to half the year. You cannot eat sloppily for half the year.

At the same time, however, you should be able to enjoy meals such as Thanksgiving or Christmas with family and friends.

Andrew and Niki recommend not tracking on these days (unless you have super strict nutritional goals) but rather focusing on enjoying the food.

Walking after the meals can help.

Remember, additionally, that eating so much that you are sick is not enjoyable. Enjoy the whole process: family, friends, cooking, eating, drinking, and afterwards.

Those in-between days should be at baseline.

Building a strong nutritional baseline can help you reach your health and fitness goals, even during the holiday season.
