Instead of making the holidays about pumpkin and pecan pies, globs of mashed potatoes, mounds of stuffing, and all those freshly baked holiday goodies, focus on your family and friends rather than food. The holidays will be more meaningful and fulfilling.

The holidays really arent about food? You no longer have to spend your holidays filled with what you get to eat, what you want to eat, avoid eating or dieting on January 1st. That is so joyous and wonderful! Your holidays are filled with wonderful moments and memories without being about food. Youve changed your lifestyle and priorities since embracing a healthy lifestyle. Focus your holidays on people you love and your relationships with them rather than food.
Create new traditions in your family. One of my favorites is when you pass out holiday gifts, take a few moments to express your appreciation for that person and tell them the impact they have on your life. Its a wonderful tradition that will carry on in your family for years. Guess what....that tradition isnt about food at all.

Rather than drive around enjoying holiday decorations and lights, park your car and enjoy a holiday walk. Youll get a close up view, enjoy the decorations on your own time rather than the driver behind you honking you to move on, and the best part is spending quality time with your family and friends and enjoy a holiday walk.
Purposefully, decide what the holiday season means to YOU. Pause for a moment and look inside yourself. Create the holidays to be deeper and more fulfilling. When you make the commitment to lose weight and live a healthier life, youll fill your life in ways more meaningful than with the temporary satisfaction of food. Start your own traditions that are a reflection of your priorities and values of your life. Spend your holidays without a focus on food alone. The temporary satisfaction of eating holiday treats doesnt compare with the true, deep satisfaction of spending the holidays with those you love.
Put the focus on you, enjoy the gift of your health, and your relationships with family and friends. Thats the very best and most long-lasting holiday celebration of all.
