Every year as it ramps up to the holiday season I default into panic mode about my weight. So much chocolate, candy, holiday dinners - It's overwhelming thinking about how much I'm going to be faced with and how much I have to say no.
A few years ago a nutritionist I was talking to about this brought the obvious to my attention when she said, "Why do you think you have to say no to it all?" Which, in all honesty, is difficult for me to get on board with because I've always been an all-or-nothing eater, but she's right. A little bit of the foods I like to eat isn't going to throw off my weight loss goals any more than one salad in my day will help me lose weight.
It's the holidays. They're once a year. Give yourself permission to not feel guilty about having some of everything. Concentrate on exercising portion control and moving a bit more to balance it out - park further away from the door to get extra steps or take the stairs instead of the elevator if you've indulged a little more than you intended. But don't stress about the upcoming meals and don't dwell on not eating perfectly clean.
Good luck to you all in sticking to your goals this month!
