Wondering how we suggest that you deal with holiday eating? Unless youre in the home stretch to something like a contest or a photo shoot, then I think it is downright ridiculous to skip holiday meal in favor of rigid dietary compliance. Dont you dare break out the Tupperware and your pocket scale at the family dinner table while everyone else is partaking in the food festivities and enjoying themselves. You know youre not going to enjoy yourself and nor will anyone youre sitting with. Lets not forget you just look silly. Part of finding balance in living the fitness lifestyle is learning to ENJOY times like this and this especially includes holiday eating - Christmas, New Years whatever. And enjoy it GUILT FREE. THAT is balance. Holiday dinners and the social/family aspect behind them are an integral part of enjoying the holiday to the fullest for many of us. And if this applies to you, you should. DO NOT get all disordered in your thinking and feel you have to make it up the next day with guilt cardio, skipping meals, cutting carbs, etc. You just wind up missing the ENTIRE POINT of this post. Accept the great off-plan and bigger-than-it-should-be meal as part of your journeys bigger picture. Accept that oh no - youll be a bit heavier the next day due to increased water and glycogen in your body; no big deal. You didnt gain 2kg of fat. Easy come, easy go. Happy festive seasons ahead! :)
