I always get into trouble during the holidays. This year it'll be a little easier on the "non-holiday" days because my wife is both on her own dietary changes and the extended family for the most part understands that I'm trying to eat better most of the time, too.


[h=2]Free Days Are About Picking Your Battles[/h]The holidays are coming, and the holidays are all about picking your battles. Some holiday events you may have to eat right. Most of them you will make free days. The trick is to eat right between holiday events, and to not have every day be a holiday event.
 
There is some wisdom to this. I woudn't go so far as to say "pig out," but I will not be worried if I go over my point allotment Thursday.
 
yeah...you have to live a bit. For me, it would turn into a six week carnival of gluttony though.
