Yes, that time of year is fast approaching. The most wonderful time of the year! Actually, Halloween candy has been in the stores for a month now so it really started a while back. People fear this time because of the chance of gaining weight instead of enjoying the time with friends and family.
Yes, we have to be aware of what we eat but I have said it many times before, this is not the time to look to lose weight. Maintaining is the word here. If you haven’t made changes on your eating habits yet this year, don’t think that from Thanksgiving on is going to be the time to make those changes. This doesn’t mean you can’t maintain your weight and keep your exercise program in place. It’s all about being reasonable with your expectations. Make sensible choices when you should and those parties won’t be that big of a deal.
Until next time…
