I don't want to completely ignore my diet and exercise over the holidays, but I've already blown it much earlier than anticipated. kids have been home since Friday. we have barely gone out, and all I have left to do for Christmas is bake! I've never seen more sugar and butter in my life. I haven't been bringing or anything crazy, but I can feel the sugar cravings coming back. I sample the goodies here and there and keep on drinking my Caribbean holiday beverages instead of water or tea. ok ow that being on my period has compounded the challenge but nervous that I will quickly lose all the progress I've made. if I'm honest with myself, I know that I won't stock to a low carb diet between now and boxing day. I can probably try again from then until New Year's Eve and then really commit again in January. I find fall and early winter to be the toughest with All the birthdays and anniversaries around here Add the kids' Halloween and a month of Christmas prep, and it's a recipe for disaster. I have to remember that I've already best the odds. I've lost nearly 10 pounds during this crazy time. So I know I can do itonce Christmas is over. I'm not weighing in until my period is done.Who knows,aybe I haven't even gained anything..Still feel like crap though.
