So if you give in, and eat way more pumpkin pie or Christmas pudding or Grandma's special rugelach than you should, get back on track right away.
Overeating at one meal or event is not going to be the cause of a permanent weight gain. But overeating at several holiday dinners, and a few parties, and a few special dinners out, and finishing off that tin of home-backed cookies on top of it all add up, and WILL be the cause of permanent weight gain.
So don't use one overindulgence as an excuse. Don't allow slipping one time to be an excuse to overeat the rest of the day, or the next day, or for the rest of the weekend, or to skip exercise.
To start getting back on track this holiday season, start tracking at Calorie Count , get moving, and don't forget to have fun!
Have a Happy, Healthy Holiday Season! -- Mary
