It's Christmas Eve Ya'll!

Merry Christmas Eve everyone! It's an anxious time of year for those trying to eat healthy, with turkey, potatoes, stuffing and pies surrounding us everywhere we look. I have done so well thus far though and wouldn't want a couple days to ruin the success I'm experiencing. I am confident that I will be mindful! It helps to plan ahead with what you will and will not indulge in (which I have). Last night after a good workout I treated myself to a small homemade shortbread cookie (made by my mom). Tonight I will try a small piece of peanut butter cup pie that I made. Tomorrow I will try one cherry coconut ball that my mom makes. As I see others reach for 5-6 sweets at a time, I will be enjoying my one treat without the sore tummy from overreating around the holidays. I planned to workout this afternoon, but it's been such an exhausting week. My body is tired and I am tired. I am going to take a nap shortly so that I can keep up my excitement for Christmas dinner and gift exchange with Brian and his family. I'll update tomorrow :-)
