#367 Mind Your Waistline This Holiday Season

Well, it's almost here. To quote the lyric, "the most wonderful time of the year."

 

I've always loved Christmas, and now, ever since having kids, I love Christmas and the whole holiday season even more. More fun than getting gifts yourself, is watching how excited your kids get when they open up their presents.

 

Not to mention the parties, get-togethers, traditions and crazy holiday stuff that happens to add to all of the lasting memories and good times.

 

On the flip side, and this is totally by personal choice, I dislike the holidays because it's the one time of the year when my eating and nutrition can completely spiral out of control.

 

There are so many treats and things I love to eat (and I don't often say no) that it can be hard to get back on track. Now, trust me when I say, I've had plenty of experience letting my diet slide and trouble getting it back on track.

 

The purpose of this podcast is to discuss the strategies I've found helpful in keeping things on track when the holiday season rolls around.

 

What I Covered

• The most important thing you can do period. It doesn't involve willpower or some super strength, just a regular pencil and paper you have lying around.
• How adding a certain kind of food will benefit you. Crazy to think, but eating more of this will help keep you on track.
• Focusing on these few things will ensure that you fall entirely off track.
• Doing this one thing will help protect your mindset from yourself.
