Yes, it is possible to burn fat on Thanksgiving Day! Even a Jiiiiiivvvvveeee Turkey will want to do this workout on Thanksgiving! It’s a calorie scorcher!
It’s a calorie scorcher!
Here are the rules to get THE MOST out of this workout.
- When you are done with dinner tonight, be done with it. Stop eating.
- While you are sleeping, your body will use some of the sugar from your last meal for energy, and store some in your liver.
- Do this workout first thing in the morning. Don’t eat before. You can drink water, but that’s it. No calories. When you do this, your body relies on the stored glycogen to carry you through your workout. When the stored energy is gone, your body will convert to breaking down your stored fat for energy. It’s a good energy source!
- Don’t eat for at least 2-hours after you finish your workout. The longer you wait, the longer your body will burn your stored fat!
- Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Once you eat, even just 50 calories, your insulin levels will spike, and fat burning will be cut off.

About me
I started my journey in February 2014 and had high blood pressure and was pre-diabetic. By July, I had lost 60 lbs. I got pregnant and maintained my clean eating and exercise program throughout my pregnancy. I had a very healthy pregnancy and had a home waterbirth at 42 weeks. I continued my training and eating regimen while breastfeeding. Now, I have lost almost 100 lbs, am no longer on high blood pressure medication, have improved my cholesterol ratio significantly and am no longer pre-diabetic.

Killing it girlfriend. I just started doing some similar workouts in the morning and man does it set the pace for y entire day. Something about exerting a bunch of energy gives me more of it 🙂
You are right. There is something about killing it in the morning that sets a positive pace for the entire day! It certainly helps me get though my fasts.
