Christmas dinner may be the best meal of the year. However, the deliciousness comes a cost, and quite a hefty one. Therefore, it is important for you to remember your fitness goals during this joyful time. I am going to share with you just how much exercise you would need to do to burn off your Christmas dinner.

The problem most people have is they tend to “write off” Christmas and go crazy – not during the Christmas dinner, but all the endless snacks which are brought out between meals,’ says Lee Smith, Forza Supplements managing director. It’s not difficult to see why many people will eat more than twice their recommended daily calories intake in one meal.
At a glance, three roasted russet potatoes contains 600 calories, four slices of delicious turkey contains 404 calories, two glasses of bubbly Champagne adds an additional 226 calories and a normal portion of Christmas pudding with butter and custard to top off the meal has 587 calories in one serving. Therefore, be careful of what you put, and how much you put on, your dinner plate. Even the smallest things can add on to your calorie intake.
On average, we gain 4 pounds between Christmas Eve and New Year’s Day. In a survey of more than 1,000 people, Forza Supplements discovered that more than a third of the recipients said it would take them at least four months to get back to the shape they were in before Christmas. When people realise they have to do an exponential amount of exercise to burn off the calories consumed by having Christmas dinner, then they might just call it quits after eating the

Intro: In 1789, President George Washington offered the first Presidential Thanksgiving Proclamation for the newly formed United States of America. His proclamation began "Whereas it is the duty of all Nations to acknowledge the providence of almighty God, to obey his will, to be grateful for his benefits, and humbly to implore his protection and favor - and Whereas both Houses of Congress have by their joint Committee requested me "to recommend to the People of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many signal favors of Almighty God, especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness."

Acknowledging that food prices increase during this time period, we can determine and foresee that more people are not going to be able to afford to eat the mass amount or even a healthy amount this sole day of the year. The article, “Thanksgiving by the Numbers” by Derek Miller, dives into this idea and provides the data. Based off of the meal that consists of “...turkey and stuffing, rolls, sweet potatoes, green peas, fresh cranberries, carrots and celery and pumpkin pie with whipped cream.” For a family of 10, the cost for this Thanksgiving meal will be $50. Meaning that each family member will cost $5 to feed and be provided with an original Thanksgiving meal.
The large amount of carbohydrates we are prepared to eat today will trigger the release of insulin, which in turn will get rid of most of the other amino acids in our blood, leaving tryptophan behind. As tryptophan forms serotonin into melatonin, our sleep-inducing hormone, the affects of feeling full and sleepy will set in for the holiday. So, in order for you to blame the turkey for the reason you feel asleep on your grandmother’s sofa, you’d basically have to only eat turkey for the entire day in a large quantity and what’s Thanksgiving without those delicious sides and desserts?
So, after a few quarters and a lot of snacks we lay back and relax from that stuff in turkey. It is unbelievable how many snacks a “stuffed” person can eat even after a huge dinner.

Oh, right, my important news! Of course, with Thanksgiving, the humans are starting to fatten us up. Normally, I would have stayed away from the atrocious food, but it was different this time. The smell was like a symphony of pleasant aromas and don’t even get me started on the taste! I wonder why the humans are giving us this delicious food, unless… I mean, I’ve been telling the others to stop their eating habits and it’s been working, they’re getting skinnier. So maybe, the humans have a strategy to give us food that is so good that we can’t resist until we are plump. And
This video shows how much exercise is required to burn off common snacks/foods. To burn off the calories in a can of soda a person would have to walk for 26 minutes or run for 13 minutes. Foods that people like to snack on often, take quite a bit of work to burn off. The video pointed out that if labels on foods said the amount of exercise required to eliminate the calories in them, people would change the way they eat. I personally, would not eat that many snacks if I were to know how much effort I need to put into burning of the calories.
As Christmas approached and the weather in the Isle worsened, as last year celebrations were muted. To try to raise some cheer the government allowed publicans to relax the rules over out of hours drinking. Women were urged to make Christmas ‘as happy as possible,’ but no one could pretend the outlook was anything but bleak.

For example, using a leftover coffee can for loose nails or screws, or even washing and reusing a plastic zip-loc bag instead of throwing it in the garbage. Thrift shopping is a way of reusing someone else’s unwanted goods. As I spoke about in an earlier speech about thrifting, I included many locations and ways to thrift, also the benefits to the shopper and the donator. One place in particular was shopping at the local boys and girls club. I personally shop there, keeping my eyes open for a good deal. For example, the pair of jeans that I am wearing today was purchased from this store just a few months ago. I paid only $8.00 for this pair of Lucky Jeans and according to buckle.com, a retailer for lucky jeans the retail price is $99.00 that is a savings to me of $91.00.I am not the type to worry about name brands, but quality usually does cost more. If I can get a quality pair of jeans at a fraction on the price, I am glad to shop at the thrift store. I am thankful to the person that made the donation of the lucky jeans and they can benefit from that donation. According to the IRS webpage, IRS. Gov it explains that an individual can donate items like clothing, household furniture and furnishings, a car or boat, even taxidermy. The donations are appraised, by the donator, and recorded. At the time of filing taxes if the donation equals at least $500 for the year, the donator may take advantage of the
