Diet guru Julia Havey recently put together a list of the worst holiday diet disasters. Here are her picks:
- Egg Nog. One serving is 460 calories!
- Cheese balls. They're pretty much all fat. Ick.
- Pecan Pie. It's 500 calories per slice, and that's without ice cream
- Candied yams. They'll pack a sugar punch, especially if they have marshmallows.
- Canned Cranberry Sauce. It has 200 calories per half cup, and zero nutritional value. Make your own
- Stuffing. You can make healthy stuffing, so do it instead of relying on Stove Top
