Ok I have ever evolving strategies on the holiday season.. First I was going to power on and still try and lose weight! Lol then thanksgiving came..Now my strategy is to hang on for dear life and try not to gain!
It's a season.. But really it's just a day or two.
I will eat at my two Christmas functions (not go crazy) and eat normal/ go back to basics on all the other days.
You ate sweets? Spend the next day detoxing.
Because that's what it really is. Your body acts like it received the best drug with those sweets and carbs. So now you have to go through the withdraw period to get back on track..
Not fun but doable when you had one day of indulgence.
There with you. Had mine on October 8th this year. Down 80lbs between pre-op and post-op. Thanksgiving was a challenge as I'm sure Christmas will be. It's tough no doubt, but in the end it will definitely be worth it. :-)
