The weekends present unique challenges to us in our quest for weight loss. Why? Well, one reason is that at the end of a long, difficult week, there is an internal "push" for some type of reward for enduring the hardships of the workweek. How do we tend to reward ourselves? Usualy food sources. Another reason is the social events that occur on the weekends as opposed to the weekdays...whether it be a gathering of friends/neighbors on a Saturday nite or a football sunday with tailgating, the bountiful supply of high-caloric foods and alcohol will most definitely impact negatively on our weight oss efforts.
Take the time to sit down and pencil out on paper the weekend challenges that occur and what solutions you can come up with to stave off the damage that may occur to your weight loss efforts. Concernng the football/tailigating issue, try very hard NOT to get into the "herd" mentality of imbibing on lots of alcohol and carbs. At social gatherings, similarly, remember at all times that alcohol is a very damaging item in your weight loss efforts.
Have a great weekend...enjoy the last vestiges of warmth...
