Next, Liz touches on her favorite topic, hydration! Not only why it's important to keep hydrated to stay on track during the holidays, but the importance of addedd electrolytes, especially when consuming alcohol. Electrolytes play a crucial role in alcohol metabolism and therefore deplete more quickly when drinking alcohol!

Why are humans so obsessed with instant gratification? Lastly, Liz discusses the importance of having a game plan when going into parties and how a plan can help you stay on track.
