Now is the time to ensure you're fully ready to embrace the holiday. A few tips to get you started:

1. Stretch your stomach.

Likely to be the biggest meal you consume this year, it's time to train your stomach to handle the massive amounts of mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, turkey, stuffing and - most importantly - pumpkin pie heading its way.

3. Claim your spot on the couch.

From the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade to the sure-to-be-thrilling football games, you'll need a prime viewing spot in the living room.

4. Brace yourself for Black Friday.

If you don't succumb to a food-induced coma, you may find yourself hunting for the best bargains at your local mall on Black Friday. Be prepared for massive crowds scrambling around at unforgivably early hours to get their hands on the season's hottest products.
