How to Avoid Falling Off the Weight Loss Wagon during the Holidays

 Two of the biggest holidays of the year are facing dieters. Wherever you go there will be food.  You know how you have sabotaged your diet in the past when you went out to a party or a restaurant and it wasn’t pretty.  You beat yourself up over it for days afterwards and had a hard time getting back onto your diet or healthy eating plan.  How will you cope this time? 

The number one tip is to plan ahead and visualize where you are going and what you are going to do when you  get there.  Repeat to yourself as you get ready to go out that you are going out to socialize and see your friends and family, not just to eat. 

Prepare a plan in  your mind.  Visualize yourself choosing healthy food as you see the food or read the menu.  See yourself choosing the veggies, or the fruit.  Visualize choosing a green salad with low cal dressing or oil and vinegar on the side. Watch as you are catching up with your friends and ignoring the bread basket and you pass it on down the table.  When you order you ask the waitress to broil that fish, not fry it.  Picture serving yourself at the buffet table with healthy choices and walking right by the high fat, high calorie foods.  You’re at the table passing food around family style and you help yourself to lots of veggies and a small portion of potatoes or none at all.  Watch yourself not even flinching as your friends all go up and get desserts and you just could care less about it.  Envision that you just keep on socializing and that you are having such a great time you don’t even think about the desserts.
