Holidays have plenty of yummies everywhere and if that weren't bad enough, they can be stressful, or worse, lonely. Trying to prevent comfort eating by doing enjoyable activities, but warm carbs keep calling my name. Please let me know if you are struggling, too.

    Yep...I'm struggling not to eat more than my daily calorie allowance. I'm drinking more hot water or tea, which helps a little bit...

    I struggle everyday, but it gets easier, bit by bit.

    The holidays are an incredibly tempting time. I would say to indulge a little bit, but don't make it an everyday thing. Remember serving sizes, not perceived appetite sizes!

    Carbs called and I answered. So I decided to eat the smart carbs and go vegetarian for the holidays. Avoiding anything with meat or a meat-based broth kept my calorie count in check over Thanksgiving. I just avoid sugar all the time, so the desserts ignored me.
