The holidays are a time to spread love, appreciation and gratitude by getting together with loved ones and pigging out on turkey, potatoes and tons of gravy till you black out in a food-induced coma. This year we thought we might help out and give you some breathing room with our guide to the best marathon gobbling gear around. Sure, sweatpants and yoga wear are obvious choices, but spread your turkey wings and you'll find you can still get your grub on while avoiding the bedheaded-slacker look. Now that's something to be thankful for.

American Apparel - Echo Park
2111 Sunset Blvd. - Los AngelesWith a name like Four-way Stretch High-waist Side-zipper Pant, you pretty much know what you're getting into. Let these bad boys stretch in all directions as you expand and let that high waist tuck in what you don't want bulging out—because no one wants a muffin top at Thanksgiving dinner.
Gap - The Grove
189 The Grove Dr., Ste. H-80 - Los AngelesPush the envelope and go the extra mile at the Gap…Maternity. Yes, we went there, and you might too. With an all-around stretch band on Gap's baby-mama pants, you can expand and grow along with your helpings of food and not feel the slightest pinch of pain. Just some food for thought.
The North Face
423 N. Beverly Dr. - Beverly HillsThese multi-purpose Freedom pants are made for extreme activities like Turkey Day eating. The adjustable waist tabs allow for growing with increased food intake, the cargo pockets grant you room to store necessary snacks in, the articulated knee enables prolonged sitting (for eating, watching football or snoozing upright), and the "buddy lift" clip will help facilitate multi-beverage transport (attachable beer cozy, anyone?) from the kitchen to the couch in one trip.
Welcome Hunters
454B Jung Jing Rd. - Los AngelesThe Complex Geometries Sweats might look complex, but are quite simple. Slip them on and hide the bulge. It's easy as 1,2,3 and only cost $100!
