My Skinny Tips for the Holidays

If you’re in the US, Thanksgiving is this week and next month begins all the holiday parties and events for Christmas, Hanakkuh, Kawanzaa, and all other winter holidays that will include a ton of processed and sugary foods, seasonal coffee’s and fun drinks, and alcohol.

A note for the dieting police out there: Don’t even try it with me.

How I Manage the Holidays + My Body

So generally during November and December, I eat very clean (except for the holidays). I allow myself a Thanksgiving plate with everything (literally everything), dessert, sugary fun drinks/alcohol, and leftovers. This is the same thing I do with Christmas dinner as well. I don’t limit what I eat on the actual holidays, but the other days I do.

How I Eat on Non-Holiday Days

So like I said, I eat very clean in Nov and Dec because I know it’s going to get crazy on Thanksgiving and Christmas Day. So I stick to eating mostly vegetables, soup, and lean protein. I actually stop drinking smoothies this time because I’d rather eat my protein than drink it so I’m not feeling hungry so soon. I get hungry faster when I drink a smoothie than I do with actually eating, so I eat more (just sticking with veggies, soup, and lots of lean protein). I do cut back heavily on bread, rice, and pasta; but my main source of carbs comes from fruit, sweet potatoes, and corn (corn is carb-heavy). I also cut OUT added sugars. I read the label on everything. 0g of added sugar is what I get. Like I said, I still indulge on whatever I want during the actual holiday meal which are things loaded in sugar, so I cut back for the month. And for everyone saying “it’s restricting” … babe, respectfully, shut up. Cutting out added sugar that does nothing for you except make you crash, bloated, ruin your gut lining, decrease collagen production, can increase your A1C (diabetes risk), and turns straight to fat is not restricting. You’re gonna have that stuff on the holidays— you can cut it out for 3 weeks, I promise.

Managing Holiday Office Parties & Community Events

I still enjoy the office potlucks and other mini events because I usually reach for the protein options instead or the veggie options. I’ll have the turkey, the ham, the deviled eggs (deviled eggs hate to see me coming), the cranberry chicken salad, etc. I still enjoy myself, I’ll just not have the pumpkin pie, the Mac and cheese, the stuffing, etc. because I’m saving that for my actual Thanksgiving/Christmas meal. Also… I do not trust other people cooking for me unless I’m there watching things happen. I don’t know what goes on at your house lol.

… But what if Paula from HR brought in her world famous (insert sugary, fatty, super processed, but super yummy food here)?

I’m most definitely going to have something if it’s something I can’t get anywhere else. If there is something that I know looks good (or is actually good) and I’m not gonna have it at my Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner, then I’ll have some. I don’t say no because it’s not part of my “diet”. There’s this girl I used to work with and she would bring in these cheesy, turkey, apple, and cranberry sliders. They were SO GOOD. I would have 1 slider and then load up on the celery and other veggies or fruit.

Alcohol

I’m not drinking alcohol unless it’s Thanksgiving, Christmas, or NYE. That’s just a no go for me. When I drink, I like to drink socially. But there’s 3 days for the rest of the year where I’m going to be drinking all night, so I don’t have any alcohol unless it’s the day of the holiday.

Bring in a healthy side option

For my office potluck, I’m making a fruit bowl, a veggie plate, and a large charcuterie board. My work bestie and I will prob be the only ones picking off of the veggie plate, but at least we do have options to load up on in case Paula from HR brings in that delicious yummy option and we want a full plate of food like everyone else.

If I’m going to have it on Thanksgiving or Christmas, I’m not going to have it anywhere else (unless it’s protein)

I will skip the sweet potato casserole and the macaroni and cheese because I’m going to have it on my Thanksgiving and Christmas. Again, I don’t care for home cooking unless I was there watching you cook for me (or if you’re a cute old lady or a grandma, I trust them so much). But the point is, I’m not going to have 8 Thanksgiving dinners this month. I’ll have one with my family and that’s it. I’m not even doing a Friendsgiving this year (but that’s only because we’re all traveling or working). But the main reason we gain weight during the holidays isn’t because we have a treat or two, it’s because we are having a Thanksgiving or Christmas meal every 2 seconds.

What’s on my Thanksgiving/Christmas plate?

I eat whatever I want, but I’ll only have a plate and a slice of dessert. I don’t get seconds or thirds. I’m a one plate girly and that’s it but I load my plate with everything and I give myself solid amounts. I don’t put tiny scoops of anything on my plate. I’d rather have food on my plate that I can’t finish rather than me cleaning my plate because I didn’t put enough of anything on there and still feeling hungry and restricted. I want to enjoy myself with my family. Thanksgiving and Christmas isn’t the time to feel restricted. For dessert, I’ll have a slice of a dessert. This year I’m being told we’re having pumpkin pie and Dutch apple pie, which are both my favorites. So I’m going to have HALF a slice of pumpkin pie and HALF a slice of the apple pie and it’ll equal to one full slice. With alcohol, I’m always drinking water. I actually drink water with my meal and drink alcohol around the meal. I personally like to stick to red wine.

How do I handle leftovers?

My family likes to give the kids (which would be me, my sibling, and our cousins) the leftovers so we can take it home. I try to take most of the protein, green bean casserole (my all-time fav omg), and deviled eggs (my grandmother makes the best, it’s impossible to beat her tbh) whereas my sibling and our cousins like to take the macaroni, garlic mash, stuffing, sweet potato casserole, and the other foods.

Exercise

I’m exercising everyday. Even on Thanksgiving and Christmas I’m exercising. I have my own routine but on Thanksgiving and Christmas, I’ll also be doing a hot (plump) girl walk after my meals to help my food digest. But even on my rest days, I’m doing active recovery.

The whole month isn’t a holiday.

I think you just have to manage the holidays by reminding yourself that’s it’s not Christmas or Thanksgiving everyday. You don’t need a full Christmas or Thanksgiving plate each day. Still enjoy the fun Starbucks drinks or Kelly from the marketing department’s apple pie, but order the tall Starbucks and not the grande or venti. Have a slice of the pie and not 1/3 of the pie. Don’t eat the candy on the table that you don’t really care for but it’s within reach so you eat it anyway. Save that for something you actually do like.

…And for anyone who is going to rage type a weird message saying I’m promoting anything unhealthy, please save yourself the time.

Happy Holidays! 🤍

✨ My new book “The Luxe Girl’s Playbook” is available now (this is the link). It’s about going into 2025 a brand new, leveled up version of yourself mentally and how you can make everyone that doubted you absolutely sickkkkk. It’s the mental diet we all need. It’ll be unavailable mid-December 2024 🫶🏼

Here’s your reminder that permanent ”fat to thin” weight-loss is not observed or backed-up by research.

If you’re fat, then you’ll most likely never be thin for long. Anderson JW, et al. found in a 2001 meta-analysis of 29 long-term weight-loss studies, that participants maintained an avarage of 3.0 kg or 23% of their initial weight-loss after 4 or 5 years.

These studies had participants’ initial weights ranging from 73.5 kg to 148kg (btw, participants weighting 140.1 were the ones to initially lose the most weight on avarage: 44.2 kg). And I’m sorry, but a 3 kg maintained weight loss is never going to make even a short 95 kg weighting person thin, even less so a 148 weighting one.

From what I’ve observed, there is absolutely no research to support that permanent weight-loss can be achieved, with, but especially not without, surgery.

We are sold a lie of how our bodies are supposed to look, and then we are sold surgeries, pills, courses, mentorships, gym memberships, more surgeries, books, exercise equipment for weight loss, powders, and did I mention surgeries??

It’s bullsh*t.

Happy weekend!

Medical Weight Loss Edwardsville: Why It's More Than Just Dieting

If you’ve experienced the frustration of traditional diets that promise results but fail to deliver, you’re not alone. At NFuze Wellness, we understand this all too well. We believe that Medical Weight Loss is more than just cutting calories—it’s about a comprehensive, medically backed approach that supports long-term success. Our Medical Weight Loss Services in Edwardsville are designed to help you achieve sustainable health and wellness, using proven treatments like Semaglutide Weight Loss and Tirzepatide Weight Loss.

Why Medical Weight Loss?

Many traditional diets fail because they don’t address underlying health issues such as metabolism, hormone imbalances, or insulin resistance. Medical Weight Loss takes a more strategic approach, helping you lose weight while ensuring your overall well-being is taken care of. At NFuze Wellness, we focus on personalized care tailored to your body’s needs, making sure that your journey toward health is not just effective but also sustainable.

How Medical Weight Loss Works at NFuze Wellness

Our process begins with a comprehensive evaluation of your health. We look beyond the scale and consider your metabolic health, body composition, and lifestyle factors. This thorough assessment ensures that we understand your unique needs and can tailor our treatments accordingly. With options like Semaglutide and Tirzepatide, our treatments target multiple facets of weight loss, including reducing appetite, increasing metabolism, and improving insulin sensitivity.

Step 1: Fill Out a Questionnaire. The journey starts with a simple online questionnaire that takes only about five minutes. This helps us understand your health history, current lifestyle, and weight loss goals, which are crucial for determining whether you qualify for our Medical Weight Loss injections, including the popular Semaglutide Weight Loss treatments. This information also helps us prepare for your consultation, ensuring that we can provide you with the most personalized and effective treatment plan.

Step 2: Book a Consultation. Because Semaglutide and Tirzepatide are prescription medications, we require a consultation with one of our healthcare providers. During this virtual consultation, we assess whether these medications are suitable for you, ensuring a personalized approach to your Health and Wellness Weight Loss journey.

Step 3: Start Your Treatment After the consultation, you’ll schedule your first injection appointment. Our team is dedicated to making the process as smooth and easy as possible. We understand that your time is valuable, so we've streamlined the process to ensure you can focus on achieving your weight loss goals without unnecessary hassle.

All packages come with monthly BMI and body composition analysis, as well as detailed reports to track your progress.

l The Power of Semaglutide & Tirzepatide

Our Medical Weight Loss Services feature Semaglutide and Tirzepatide, two breakthrough medications in the world of weight management. Originally developed for treating type 2 diabetes, Semaglutide has shown significant results in promoting weight loss by suppressing appetite and increasing the body’s ability to burn fat.

Meanwhile, Tirzepatide acts on dual receptors in the body to not only regulate insulin but also enhance metabolism and reduce fat storage. Both medications are administered via injections, offering a convenient and effective way to support your weight loss journey.

At NFuze Wellness in Edwardsville, our focus is on total wellness. Our Medical Weight Loss programs are designed to integrate seamlessly with other wellness services, such as our IV Hydration therapies, which replenish vital nutrients and support your overall health.

Daily check in - Day 1

Hi guyss!! So I decided to start this series because I think it could help me with my commitment issues and get the motivation I need to actually change my life. I won't probably do it every single day because my schedule is extremely busy, but I'll try to stick to it and be true with myself and you here.

Workout: rest day, can't even take one though so I:

played handball in p.e (25 minutes)

did 100 jumping jacks, 10 burpees and 5 push ups

Steps: 13 200

Eating:

I really binged all day, had like 13 cookies, 200 grams of peanuts, a lot of chips and a lot of bread too, probs 650 cals over maintenance. This is exactly the reason why I'm starting the series, to get back on track and stop the bingeing.

Water:

2.25 liters

Sleep:

6 hours, bad quality

Studying:

2 hours of tutoring + revising for the final exam

Self care:

Winter depression be hitting HARD, really can't be bothered to take care of myself (should have washed my hair 3 days ago but here I am), takes me AGES to go and brush my teeth and do my skincare (did it tho!!)

Emotion of the day:

Happiness (got the best mark in physics and I really enjoyed class today, also I really loved all the food I had, even if I binge-ate it. Food truly makes me happy and I don't regret a single thing!)

Thoughts for tomorrow:

I wish to improve my relationship with food and not binge tomorrow (I've been binging everyday for the last week)

Be really active and raise my hand in physics and chemistry

Healthy and really high protein meals + strength workouts, hitting arms again probably
