As this wonderful, stressful food filled weekend draws nearer we really, really, need to pause and take a big ole honkin' breath! Then ask yourself the question: How does a Weight Watcher do Thanksgiving? Answer? As a Weight Watcher.
1. A Weight Watcher understands the added stress of holidays so will remove some of that stress by planning, planning, planning and then some more planning! Did I stress how important planning is??
(I made my dressing yesterday right after dinner so I was full and then froze it...one less thing to do and be tempted to taste test!)
2. A Weight Watcher knows putting their daily activity at the top of the list might mean re-arranging some other weekends plans a bit but does it anyway because they KNOW it's worth it. Activity helps us stay peaceful! Managing our life from a peaceful position gives us power!
3. A Weight Watcher gets involved with the food planning, even if going to someone else's house, and offers to take lots of great on-Plan food. Thanksgiving dinner can be full of Power Foods!
4. A Weight Watcher decides what the PPV's budget is going to BEFORE the "big meal" AND does it long before the door bell rings with arriving guests or is walking through your family hosts door!
5. A Weight Watcher knows that their family is fun, fantastic and wonderful and still might push every I-want-to-eat-everything-in-sight button they have! That's when a Weight Watcher takes another really deep breath and remembers no amount of cake, pie or chocolate will resolve their "long standing family issues"and refuses to let it push their goal of an on Plan Thanksgiving out the window!
6. A Weight Watcher is grateful. Gratitude is one of the most powerful tools we have...use it!
7. A Weight Watcher knows to keep their goal front and center!
7. A Weight Watcher knows to keep their goal front and center!
Happy Thanksgiving!
And remember....
It's what a Weight Watcher does!
