Pumped for the holidays!

I am SOOOOO looking forward to the holidays.

I tackled my first social event of the season over the weekend and passed with flying colors.

I had a plan set out in front of me for the dinner and dance and managed to stick to everything I said I would in my last blog.

I enjoyed my meal but managed to do so in moderation and I had a small dessert - no point being unrealistic. I knew I was going to have dessert I just had to limit it and really savor what I had. I did just that and I didn’t go back up for seconds and I didn’t indulge in midnight goodies when most other people were.
I am very proud of myself.

I danced and danced and danced and worked off the extra calories by having so much fun.

I made sure I worked out early in the day so there were no excuses as the day got busier.

Having a plan for the day and feeling in control helped me to be able to relax and enjoy myself and have fun with my hubby and friends. Besides that’s really what it’s all about right?

I hope my buddies are able to do the same thing and just enjoy the holidays without stressing too much. I know how stressful it can be but let’s remember to focus on what’s most important - family and friends.

Take care buddies
and HAPPY DECEMBER 1st
