Every year around this time, anxiety builds for people everywhere...How can I avoid overeating and gaining weight? What if there are no healthy options available?What if my mother-in-law cooks something I don’t want to eat?If you find yourself asking these questions, you’re not alone!I spent many years showing up to holiday events with limited options for staying in my FLO. It can feel rude and awkward to not eat the food people have prepared for you, and just as rude or awkward to show up with your own tupperware of greens! Right?While it might feel weird, it doesn’t have to be - IF you handle it the right way.Here’s what I learned and here’s what you can do to combat the Thanksgiving food panic:
- Find out in advance what the host is cooking. This should come across in a friendly and curious manner. If you don’t hear about options for healthy greens and side dishes, this is where you can offer to help and bring a dish to share!
- Be sure to eat breakfast and/or a snack before you arrive. The biggest mistake women make before big holiday meals is starving themselves all day to “save up” calories. This will completely make your blood sugar crazy, and you’ll be left with no option but to stuff your face on the carbiest carb lying around.
- Enlist a food buddy. Before or during the event, gain the support of a close friend or family member by sharing your anxiety around food. Tell them about WomanCode and the work you’re doing to balance your hormones and eat in line with your cycle. Be open and honest and crack a joke or two. Ask that person if he or she will help you speak up if needed.
