November 1
I try to stay anonymous about my profession at my gym for a variety of reasons. But, a friend at the gym who had lost 75 lbs. last year before the holidays asked me, upon learning about what I do for work, if I could give her a single key for getting through her first holiday season 75 lbs. lighter. Of course, I couldn’t come up with just one (no surprise there), but I did narrow it down to three biggies: controlling the environment, being discriminating, and being mindful not to open doors that have nothing to do with the holidays that you later can’t close.
