Memorial Day Weekend Planning

We are almost at the official kick-off of summer!  I love Memorial Day Weekend!!

Before you head off to your parties, picnics, and parades -- if you are a fan of the holiday, what is it you really value about the upcoming activities???

Sometimes people get so caught up in the food and fun that they jump in to what they are doing and forget to be mindful of their eating.  If you don't want to pay attention to your eating for the weekend --that is absolutely fine.  BUT if you want to maximize your enjoyment of the food, family, friends and fun -- start thinking about where you are going, who you are going to see and what are the likely situations you could find yourself overeating because you aren't paying attention to your hunger and fullness.

Once you have given it some thought, likely solutions can present themselves.  (and none of them include NOT going to wherever it is just to avoid the temptation).

You can enjoy the weekend grilling fun without losing track of your weight loss goals.  It just takes some planning now.
