If you’ve been a reader for a while, you know I love sweets.
What can I do? I was born this way. 😉
But I do have a few tricks to help me stay in control…so I can actually ENJOY the sweets I DO choose to eat around the holidays. (No guilt allowed.)
If the holidays feel like navigating a sugar mine field for you too, check out this roundup of tips for making it through the holiday sugar craziness…plus how to “deconstruct” your sugar cravings so you can manage them even better next year.

Sugar isn’t really the problem; it’s kind of the solution. You just have to know which sweets to eat – and which to avoid at all costs – and how to set yourself up so you don’t have to depend solely on willpower. (‘Cause that never works.)
The tips in these posts should give you some ideas on how to do that; so have a look if you missed them the first time…or even if you just need a refresher.
Keep me posted on how it’s going…
