Be Picky
When walking through the Christmas buffet, don’t fill your plate just to fill it. Pick out a moderate supply of your holiday favorites.

Drinking water beforehand is a great way to help you feel full faster. Mix up a delicious shake of ReShape for a great holiday prep to help you feel fuller, longer.

Hit the Road
