I know that many of you, same as me. . .are freaking out a little as soon as X-mas is approaching. . .too many delicious goodies are tempting us more than usually those days. . .
During the rest of the year it's already hard to stay strong and not eat the whole bar of chocolate. . .but exactly that's the point!! My opinion is that denying all the "carb bombs" doesn't make sense. . .it only makes you unhappy and frustrated!! Moreover I think it takes much more strength of will to only eat a little portion and then stop instead of leaving it out completely!!
Beside that, we only live once; always saying "NO" just to stay skinny?! All I say about that is "NO WAY"!! When it comes to a healthy diet it is like with most things in life. . .just don't exagerate!!
Of course you can also opt for healthier alternatives. . .a hand full of nuts instead of chocolate, use honey instead sugar to prepare the dish, choose cereal bars instead of muffins, use olive oil instead colza oil etc. . .not that those products have necessarily less calories, the ingredients are simply better for our whole body!
You can train yourself to stop before stuffing too much into your stomach! "All" you need is the motivation to be healthy, look good and be proud of yourself!
So don't become an outsider during X-mas dinner. . .simply listen to your body, if you do this carefully it will tell you when it's enough! ;-)
