How I'm Going To Eat 5,000 Calories On Thanksgiving

Why This Works for Me
This approach is a culmination of my fitness journey, understanding of my body, and the desire to balance enjoyment with health. It's about making informed choices, understanding the impact of foods and activities on our bodies, and most importantly, not depriving ourselves of life's pleasures.
Your Takeaway
You might not follow my plan to the letter, and that's okay. The idea is to inspire you to create a strategy that works for you. Whether you take some elements of my plan or design a completely different approach, the key is to enjoy the holiday without setting back your fitness goals.
Wishing you all a fantastic and fit Thanksgiving!
