Forget the Feast: This Night Was a Night of Total Dietary Failure (And What It Really Costs) When the holiday season arrives, most of us eagerly embrace large dining tables, festive spreads, and the warm buzz of shared meals. But not every feast lives up to the hype—and sometimes, what should have been a celebration of good food turns into a disaster of dietary failure. If you found yourself staring at turkey skin, overstuffed plates, or empty sugar bowls without any satisfaction, you’re not alone. This year, ditch the traditional feast and confront the hard truth: sometimes the best meal is the one you didn’t eat. ### Why Last Year’s Feast Failed Dietally (And Nutritionally) Let’s be real—festive meals often prioritize flavor and tradition over balance. Rich roasted meats, buttery sides, sugary desserts, and endless bites create a perfect storm of calorie density and nutrient imbalance. The result? Feelings of sluggishness, post-feast bloating, and guilt over what you really ate. This year, many of us are re-evaluating not just what’s on the table—but how it impacts our bodies long-term.
