Overeating during Diwali

It is Diwali ----the Festival of Lights in India this coming week. It is a celebratory occasion for meeting friends and exchanging gifts. Obviously, one is compelled to `overeat' by your friends,relatives and others and it is difficult to stick to your diet plan.
So I have decided to ``let go'' and enjoy the festive spirit even if it involves binge eating. I am confident that I will start losing weight again after the Festival is over. But I will be logging in my weight and food/exercise even though they may marginally go up.

I was in the hospital last Diwali, so I didn't have to worry too much. Now this is the twins' first Diwali, and I'm sure their grandparents are going to go overboard!
Thankfully, I hate mithai!0 -
I like your attitude. Just enjoy yourself and get back on track when you have finished celebrating.
Happy Diwali to you and your family!1 -
ooh.. my mum's started making sweets at home n d sweet smell drives me crazy.. I will stay away from the sweets this Diwali - I choose to go to office rather than stay at home for 4 days, coz if i stay home, dats wat ill do - Hogg!!!
I read this quote in a lady's signature - What you put in your mouth will either take you one step towards or one step away from your goal!!!!!
That laddu & chakli will only mess all my previous efforts of the past 2 months n I knw it has ZERO nutrition. So I will avoid it as much as possy ppl!!! Put health before anything else!!!0 -
