In lieu of the holidays

November 22, 2006, 11:43 PM

Now, we all know that the holidays are a very difficult time for dieters, no matter how they're eating. **shakes fist** Darn you pumpkin pie!

But I heard something the other day which made me think, and what I thought is: that's so true! I gotta share.

So with Thanksgiving tomorrow, let me quote a woman I saw on a WHYY Ethics report: "I just wonder if, when things get hard and your morals are put to the test and you abandon them, did you ever really have them at all?"

Don't think of this holiday season as a burden or torture. It's a test. And if you can stand by this through tough times, you can do anything!

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone.

Very well said

Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

Check out our Low Carb Recipes website and add to it!!
