Holidays and diets….
2 things that are hard to put together is holidays and diets. Since starting New Life Style Diet I have hit a few small holidays. Well and then there was The 4th of July our countries celebration of freedom – oh what to do! Am I free to eat all I want? Nope….. well not if I want to keep going down in weight that is for sure. With 3 different celebrations in one week what is a girl to do? So I decided I will pick one of the parties to eat all I want. So the first celebration I did real well and still had fun drinking my shakes and mingling. Now the 2nd celebration was a fish fry and every dessert you can imagine. I LOVE fish so that is the one I chose to eat all. I started my day with my shakes and bars and that evening I eat what I wanted – it was nice to be able to be social and eat and enjoy the great food. I eat until I was full and satisfied but did get a taste if it all. The next it was business as usual and back at the shakes and bars. The 3rd party came and I was good (except the heart of the water melon was calling my name. So I did have some melon (but it is summer and that cold melon on a hot day is wonderful)!
You can go off your diet and get right back on and keep going! Just because there is 3 outings in one week doesn’t mean you have to give up at all – pick one and enjoy. This is a life style change and you can work in what fits for you. I love the New Lifestyle Diet and all the great benefits for sure so it is very east to go back to after a little detour to celebrate our independence!
