Dealing with FOOD PUSHERS during the holidays

Just something rather *profound* I just read- and it hit me upside the head...thought I'd share.
This is an excerpt from an interview in Spryliving w/ Bethenny Frankel
Spry: Do you have any advice for communicating with well-meaning friends and family who may try to push you to eat more than you'd lkke?
Bethenny: Nod politely and play your own game. This is your journey. Don't make big weight-loss announcements or talk about being "bad" today and "good" tomorrow.
Food is not your best friend or your enemy.
You can handle this.
Here is the article in its entirety:
