I find that I indulge a bit more during the holidays, but I've found a few ways to keep it 'under control' for me. I tend to do better regarding the extra treats if I make a deal with myself that I can have them, but only after I've had some protein first. This allows me to have my 'proverbial' cake and be able to eat too without significant repercussions. I also have found that while I don't generally log anymore unless I'm having an issue with my weight, that doing so during the holidays really helps me be very aware of what I'm putting in my mouth, the 'value' of it and to be honest, it's relative expense. This also helps me as I work to make sure I'm getting in the nutrients I need. When I'm working to be sure I have enough protein, I often will have to delay the simple carbs that abound during the holidays. This in turn stems the tide and I don't indulge quite as much.
