Taking Control of My Weight

The shopping is done. The stockings are hung. The holiday meal is planned and the stress is still hanging heavy over my head.

Not sure why this time of year feels so overwhelming and stressful.  I have done everything I can to make the stress less but it is still there.

I think a lot of it is my lack of getting out into the fresh air.  Through the spring and summer I deal with stress by getting out into the sun and walking it off.  Not this time of year.  It is in the low 20 high teens and I just can not do it.  It physically hurts to get out into that air.

The kids are off school till the 5th of January and they are excited to have the time off.  I too am excited to have that extra stress off of me.

We will be having company over for Christmas dinner and I have already put my meal plans in order.  I have avoided the extra sweets and plan to avoid them on Christmas too. The kids have asked for my sugar free apple dumplings for dessert. I am happy to oblige.

So ready or not here it comes, Christmas is on its way.
