Yo Self 2011! <br /><br />We eat mostly clean (other than the occasional magical burger at Chuck's downtown or Trader Joe's oatmeal bars or something like that)and we feel so much of a difference when we eat clean! We are so accustomed to it that it is true: we feel bad when we don't.<br />But I will indulge sensibly this holiday season for sure. But moderately, except for the pie. i love pie. okay, i'll have a small sliver.<br /><br />Also, those crocheted veggies are RIDICULOUSLY BEAUTIFUL! <br /><br />-ElizabethGood Southhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10983003717834319339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4677104499481961232.post-66032209960595055852011-11-09T13:35:23.731-05:002011-11-09T13:35:23.731-05:00Hi!!

You have such great food perspective. <br /><br />On Weight Watchers I've managed to lose weight during the holidays for the past two years! <br /><br />The only way I've been able to do it is fill my plate with the vegetables and get a tiny portion of the delicious naughty stuff. I also allow myself a tiny piece of dessert so I never feel deprived!Lindsay N.

There's a local ice cream company in my city that comes out with some ah-mazing special flavors around this time of year and I have literally been craving the cinnamon flavor for an entire year (since it debuted last year). But I'm on a diet and was torturing myself for days by not indulging. But then I caved. But guess what? Craving satisfied so I'm set for the season.Mary @ Noah Babyhttp://noahbabyblog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4677104499481961232.post-37881266445433771672011-11-09T08:53:15.284-05:002011-11-09T08:53:15.284-05:00Love these tips.

If it's here, I'll eat it. End of story. <br /><br />Also, I am in LOVE with my "Gluten-free, Almond flour Cookbook" by Elana Amsterdam, which has everything from cakes to pie crust to cookies to bread. The treats are still treats (sugar is sugar be it agave, honey, or raw granules), but they are healthier and wheat and dairy free! Added bonus that they are tasty as well. We love the chewy chocolate chip cookies, and I made a coffee cake for Kev's birthday recently. Check it out!<br /><br />Miss you! xoxoAshleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00248441396557998171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4677104499481961232.post-545686143185966332011-11-09T08:21:13.210-05:002011-11-09T08:21:13.210-05:00great tips amy! especially love the idea of freezi...great tips amy! especially love the idea of freezing treats for a rainy day. what i did for my neighbors/co-workers last year is the cookie in the jar recipe so they can make the cookies up to a year later.Lesleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11377408234974604209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4677104499481961232.post-31888260593575797902011-11-09T07:43:46.969-05:002011-11-09T07:43:46.969-05:00I love your food posts!

We talk about the "pushers" in our Weight Watchers meetings and some of the tips they suggest are simply telling those people that you are making a point to eat healthy and kindly ask them for the support. Another suggestion is to do activities with those people where food is not involved such as hiking, shopping, etc. Also, with many cookies, cakes, treats, they freeze very well!!! Simply put them in individual ziplock bags and store them away for later.<br /><br />Good Luck to all of us!! :)Your Southern Peachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03051483565102704360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4677104499481961232.post-39853103000005281502011-11-09T07:23:03.890-05:002011-11-09T07:23:03.890-05:00Great reminders heading into the sweets season!

I always try to eat clean during the week, and then let myself enjoy food a little more on the weekends - that plan doesn't always work during the holiday season when the sugar is everywhere! And those crocheted veggies are super neat!Emilyhttp://www.fromchinavillage.comnoreply@blogger.com
