Whew! I apologize for my minimal posts last week, it was a busy one for me! As I look at my schedule and calendar, it looks like I better get used it as the next few weeks are pretty crazy! I am sure I am not alone as December is usually a busy month as we prepare for Christmas and New Years, holiday parties, extra baking and cooking, shopping and all the other fesitivities involved in the holidays. We often go into ‘survival’ mode to just get through these busy times and in turn our diet or ‘lack there of’ gets put aside. Just remember it’s ok to have some plurges here and there, but when the splurges become a regular occurrence, you may need to pull the reigns back in! Try to focus on the principles of MyPlate by including foods from each food group and eating consistently throughout the day. Skipping meals only sets us up for a disaster as we have less control when we are starving. And remember to get your exercise in!
I’m on KXLG radio station early tomorrow (Wednesday) morning. Be sure to tune as we’re going to talk about our winter session of STRIVE 2 Survive starting January 3rd!
