Moment with Will

If I’m not fat enough already, the holidays are here. Every year, I tell myself to go easy on the food during the holidays. It never happens and I end up eating like a hog, actually a hog with a sweet ass haircut.

This year has been no different then last. I ate my fair share of food but Thanksgiving is never my nemesis. It is the time between Thanksgiving and New Years.

You know that time when everyone you know has a holiday party to include your employer. You eat, drink, and be merry, way too much. Of course, all the parties have to have cakes and cookies. I can’t resist the taste of baked goods and the holidays are know for baked goods.

Anyway, the point of this post is for general awareness so lets try to keep everyone a little less fat this year.

Try this to start, elect a person responsible for ensuring a modest portion of food is given to each guest. That could be the person carving the ham or turkey. It’s natural for the host to ask the guest to tell them when they have enough food. If they want more, it’s all on them. You did your job.

Be a good host and even consider portion size. You can even adjust the portion size with baked goods. Make or serve the cakes and cookies in smaller sizes. Even try spreading the goodness out over an evening. Don’t put out all of the pieces of cake or cookies out at once.

I’m no expert so if you think my ideas are stupid, I don’t blame you for thinking that.
