The Holiday Survival Guide for MomsTrying to Lose Weight


Listen Later

Christmas can be a magical time — and a really hard one when you’re on a weight-loss journey.

In this episode, we’re talking about how to navigate the holidays without guilt, panic, or the all-or-nothing mindset. If you’ve ever felt anxious about holiday food, worried about losing progress, or frustrated that you can’t just “turn off” thoughts about weight and eating, this conversation is for you.

We’ll start by zooming out and focusing on what actually matters during Christmas — the big picture, the emotional environment, and making intentional (not restrictive) choices. From there, I’ll walk you through gentle, realistic strategies that help you enjoy the foods you love while still feeling grounded and in control — no rigid rules, no perfection required.

You’ll also get a simple, step-by-step plan for Christmas week, including:

  • How to eat in a way that prevents overeating without restriction
  • A flexible holiday eating framework that removes pressure
  • How to handle alcohol, movement, and social events with intention
  • What to do after Christmas so you don’t spiral into guilt or punishment

This episode is your reminder that you don’t have to choose between enjoying Christmas and staying connected to your goals. You’re allowed to do both — with compassion, clarity, and confidence.

So take a breath, grab something cozy, and let’s talk about how to make this Christmas feel good for you — emotionally, mentally, and physically.
