I've seen versions of this meme a bunch of times over the weekend. Listen I love Thanksgiving as much as the next person. Actually I'm pretty sure I love Thanksgiving more than the next person. A lot more.
There will be a ton of food. There will be cakes and pies and various other desserts. There will be leftovers. It's going to be glorious.
Ok now that I've professed my love for Thanksgiving (and stopped drooling), let's get to the point. I want you to have all the fun and eat all the food. Seriously, all of it. As I said, that's what I'll be doing and I'll feel better about myself knowing you're doing it with me. (Just kidding I'm going to feel fine about myself.)
That being said, there is no magic reset button.
Enjoy the holiday, the food and your family and friends. But remember when it's all said and done you'll have to deal with the consequences.
I don't want to turn into Nancy Negative here but keep that in mind as you're making choices (food and otherwise) Thursday and through the weekend. You've basically got a couple of choices:
You can enjoy yourself during the holiday, have a little extra fun and get back to your healthy living ASAP.
or
You can say "F" it. Go wild and crazy. It's only one day (or at worst a long weekend). Then get back to your healthy living ASAP.
I'll be completely honest, I'm leaning toward the second option.
