The holiday's are just around the corner. Do you have a plan? If you're trying to loose weight or maintain, you better have a plan, or you'll get beyond all the holidays and wish you would have had a plan. :)
So first up is Halloween. All that yummy chocolate, or for me it's anything fruity and chewy that turns my head. Halloween is all about the candy. So how are you going to tackle it? I have a plan. Do you?
I don't buy any candy until just before Halloween. That way it's not a temptation the days before Halloween. The other thing I do is I buy candy I don't really care for. What does it matter? I'm just giving it away anyway.
I also plan on allowing myself a little treat on Halloween. I figure out exactly what I will want to have and adjust my eating accordingly earlier in the day.
The night of Halloween, plan a nutritious meal for the whole family. Wether or not you're going to partake in the candy, you know your kiddos are going to, so make sure they get something really good for them in their tummies. The more satisfied you and your family are the less you're going to be tempted to eat junk.
I also try to really focus on the kids. I make sure I'm involved and enjoy watching the fun they're having rather than focusing on what I think might make me happy. Because in the long run, if I pig out on candy, not only am I going to feel sick to my stomach, but I'm not going to feel very good about myself.
