Yep its that time of year , not only is it cold but the dreaded leftover season starts this week. Along with having a bunch of people over for Thanksgiving ,we are in the process of redoing the upstairs bedrooms , fun fun, it never will be done.
Now back to reality, the season of leftovers , hmmm, pie, cookies , desert?
This is a tough time of year for everyone that is out of surgery for 1 -2 years, heck "I know that its becoming one for me in that my appetite is kinda back , and that the problem is its for carbs.So how do we work through it?Several things are available, go back to the basics, drink lots of water, we need that anyways, make sure we eat our proteins FIRST, then veggies , then the bloomin carbs.
Make sure NOT to skip meals, even if its a protein drink that you have, YOU need to eat something to make your body happy happy.Is it possible to not ever want to eat? nope not in my opinion in that food is the one thing we can never really get away from, like o2 we need it to survive so in that we are stuck with eating so we may as well make it good choices hadn't we? So lets look at it as a challenge that we can conquer because we are well on the way to doing it already.
