I know it is difficult to control our eating at this time of the year. We all fall off the wagon occassionally, especially over the holidays. Forgive yourself for an occassional fall and move forward to healthy food.
I allow myself one holiday treat a day. Meanwhile I visulize all the things the healthy food can do for me. Life is about choices. Do I want to be healthier or do I want to enjoy a few moments of fun eating things that may not contribute to good health? If I want better health and if I want to live longer I have to choose the healthy things to eat. I am happier and less stressed when I choose healthy things to eat. I love the healthy foods for what they can do to help me. Most of the time I am so busy trying to eat all the healthy things I forget the other things. I still have cookies in the freezer from last year !!
