    Hi friends!

    I’m sorry I have been so absent lately. The holiday season is always crazy and this year is no exception. We are also heading to Mexico next week with the kids so I’m packing and preparing as well.

    Secret Santa began at work today and I received a big plate of cookies and a green tea. I brewed the tea and I shared the cookies with everyone who came into the library today.

    This evening’s tea is called fireside mocha. It sounded festive, and there are tiny little candy trees in it.

    I don’t know about you but my workplace and home are filled with land mines of delicious treats. We have a holiday dinner at school tomorrow, and a couple family Christmas celebrations this weekend before we head on vacation.

    Good luck to all of us as we navigate parties and staff room treats this week!

    You've got that right Meg!!! Good job navigating yesterday :smile:

    Okay team I dropped the ball this week and I'm sorry about that.

    This week I'll be tossing out tips and tricks for maintaning during the holidays, or really whenever you feel the need.

    This past week, and until the end of the month I am taking what is normally known as a diet break. I've done this in the past with great results and the holidays with all their parties and treats are a perfect time for one. Here are two sites with slightly different takes on diet breaks:

    http://anymanfitness.com/are-you-ready-for-a-diet-break/

    http://www.healthylivingheavylifting.com/the-definitive-guide-to-diet-breaks/

    Which method you use, the slightly more free for all of the first or the structured nature of the second is a personal preference. The first time I did a diet break I used the stay within a structure plan, this time I'm trying the more loose approach.

    If you have a plan that's worked for you in the past, or want to share your holiday tips please take a moment to share them.

    No you didn’t drop the ball at all. 💃👍💃

    My holiday advice is the fact I know I am going to enjoy some treats, however, not go overboard. I will maintain through 2019 and looking forward to a strong start in 2020! I will continue working out and sticking with my daily goals including using MFP food dairy. 👏👏👍👏👏

    I have so much catching up to do!

    My weigh in today: 139.3

    Sorry I don’t remember my PW and am too lazy to look it up but I think I gained a pound. Sounds about right considering I ate and drank a lot in NYC!

    Steps 12/16: 11,271

    So weird because I swear I was over 13,000 when I looked at some point last night. But I know I got a few thousand steps between 12-1am because we were out quite late Sunday night so maybe with the time change coming back home I lost them? Not that it matters, I just thought it was strange!
