You know it's coming: the inevitable barrage of sugar cookies, cakes, and hot chocolate, all in the name of holiday cheer. It's a time to treat yourself, for sure - but if you're watching your weight, it can help to think of each treat in terms of how long it takes you to burn it off. Keep this table in mind the next time you're out for a run and feel proud knowing you've worked off that gingerbread man.
All calculations are based on a 130-pound woman and a 10-minute mile.
