Okay who's here? Come out, come out, I know you're lurking!!!!! [img]images/smilies/icon_smile.gif[/img]
Autumn is upon us. The holidays are on our doorstep (along with those little Trick or Treaters!). This is a dangerous time for alot of dieters!
How are you planning to handle the holiday season at this point in your diet?
Weather's getting colder (at least in this hemisphere). It's getting too cold to exercise outdoors in some places. So what are your winter exercise plans?
Food issues:
Now is the time to buy those fall fruits and veg for use now or later:
Cranberries can be frozen or dried (unsweetened of course). Buy them now so you can use them later in the year.
Nuts are in season too. They freeze well. So run to the baking aisle of the market and stock up if you see a good sale. Roasting your own nuts is easy to do. Likewise, you can grind them down for other recipes.
Pumpkin and celeriac/celery root is coming in season. You can make veggie snack chips from them (recipe is in the Cooking Lessons forum).
