My office is inundated with holiday sweets and goodies today!! No joke, on every aisle of cubes there are things to eat.
Homemade stuff too.
Cookies, fudge..
And.. cheese straws.
I'm a sucker for these. It's one of my holiday favs. I've had one and that's what I'm limiting myself to today.
Two words for myself today.
STEP AWAY .
I'm guzzling water and brought a salad for lunch. I'm really trying peeps. BECAUSE remember -- this time next week I'll be putting my swimsuit on and ready to hit the beach in the sunny Bahamas. Looks like the high is 78-degrees so we're hoping the water will be warm enough to get in and snorkel.
What is your mechanism in trying to avoid holiday overeating?
i can't avoid it. I just eat my weight in everything and then pay for it after the new year! ha!
ReplyDeleteI eat lots of cookies and run on the treadmill...not at the same time.
ReplyDeleteBTW...love the Christmas card!
I have no control - I am a holiday heifer!!
ReplyDeleteMy self control isn't so good these days either - it helps that I have been running a lot - but I need to take your advice and step away. I purposely and going out during lunch today so I don't go to the potluck! Too many temptations! Got your card - so cute!!
ReplyDeleteit's so hard to eat healthy with all the yummy stuff out there this time of year! but it's worth it, right?!
ReplyDeleteXOXO
I'm totally paying for it. Although there aren't as many Christmas goodies in Bulgaria. I've decided that if I have a big, fresh salad with each meal it's gotta help some-right? Probably not...ugh.
ReplyDeleteWow! I'm on my way to your office now to fill in for your stomach.
ReplyDeleteum, just don't go around it!
ReplyDeleteI'm right there with you! All our vendors keep bringing goodies up there and we eat non-stop ALL DAY LONG. YUCK.
ReplyDeleteugh. i am trying so hard to lose this last amount... grr. but! i figure i will allow myself one day of true indulgence and then try to keep the rest under control...
ReplyDeleteat least, that's the PLAN... hee hee... we'll see...
Water...and lots of it!!!
ReplyDeleteNo i'm not in Junior League!
Cheese straws are one of my all time favorites! YUM!
ReplyDeleteLove me some cheese straws! Love them.
ReplyDeleteIt's been weird this year because since I'm not working, I'm not around all the good stuff all day long. I guess that's how I'm avoiding it. Ha!
My motto??? It's the holidays! Who cares??? :) January 2nd is for diets.
ReplyDeleteit is the drinking that kills me this time of year. I feel like I am out every night. As soon as I get to my parents house for Christmas is is the butter press cookies, they are so small and easy to pop in my mouth!
ReplyDeleteI'm with Sara on this one!!!
