I am sad to say that we are entering the last and hardest month of the #Cinchspiration program. Month 6 includes Thanksgiving and all of the pre-Christmas parties!! I’m not going to focus on that today though. Today my video focuses on what I am thankful for.
This month I only lost 1 pound and 0.25 inch. My goal is to lose 3 more pounds by the end of this last month so I will be working out more and making wiser dinner choices so that I can achieve my goal.
My Thanksgiving hurdle is my mom’s stuffing. In my opinion, she makes the best stuffing in the world and since she only makes it twice a year, I will be eating some. My goal for surviving Thanksgiving will be portion control and only eating what I truly desire. It is a special day and I won’t deprive myself of a few treats but I won’t go crazy either. How do you navigate the holidays without gaining weight? Leave your tips in the comments.

Cindy, I’m with you on portion control and actually asking myself if I am hungry. It is easy to munch all day and for me we’re having two meals and two desserts which will make this holiday even harder. I’m not going to beat myself up. Your before and after photos are amazing, especially the forward facing one, what a slimmer figure I see! Congratulations and keep up the great work! Have a lovey vacation and Thanksgiving!

Set your self up for success by your actions and don\’t choose a weight goal of 3 pounds in 9 days after the Thanksgiving, too?! You look good so far. I agree with you to definitely having a plan for the holidays. Portions are everything. Happy Thanksgiving and enjoy!

You can definitely see the difference!
I didn’t give up all the things that I love at Thanksgiving and I probably won’t at Christmas either. What I will do is drink lots of water, eat smaller portions, and keep working out!
