While most people spent the holiday in the company of family eating delicious food, I was at home with a fever - not fun! I ended up getting very ill on Christmas Eve and am finally starting to feel a little better.
The good thing is that I only ate soup 99% of the time, so I definitely did not overdo it with food. The bad thing is that I think my illness was somewhat self-inflicted since I was dieting and not taking my vitamins like I should have been.
Unfortunately, when you cut out 20% or so of your daily calories you may cut out a great deal of nutrients that your body relies upon. And unless you are a licensed dietitian it can be harder than you think to eat balanced meals.
So Tip #4, make sure you are taking a multi-vitamin if you are dieting to unsure no loss of nutrients.
(This tip is just a suggestion, talk to your doctor to find out what's best for you)
