Alright y’all its January 11th, and this month has already been crazy; I have been from Fort Worth to Houston three times, my sweet Paigey and Rachi Rose had birthdays, I started a diet (aka no birthday cake), and I’ve watched a lot of basketball. It’s been a while since I’ve posted, because honestly I haven’t had a second to sit down and write. I wrote a post that I had fully intended on posting last week, but after re-reading it I was straight up hangry, and I promise you no one wants a hangry post.

So if y’all are wondering if this new diet is my New Year resolution, the answer is no. This year instead of setting a resolution that is damn near impossible for me to obtain, I am going to make a promise to myself to be the best person I can be on the inside and out. I am on this diet, not because society tells me I need to be skinny, but because I want to be healthier.

Okay y’all, so I am the world’s WORST about eating healthy over the Holidays, but this year I’ve been trying really hard to eat right. Normally, I would be shelling these pecans for my mom so she can make chocolate covered pecans (seriously, they are SOOOO good), but today I am going to make the smart decision to resist these lovely snacks. So today’s post is about eating this and not that over the holidays!

 

Eat This Not That

Breakfast:

EAT a breakfast taco NOT breakfast casserole

EAT oatmeal and brown sugar NOT donuts

 

Main Dish:

EAT turkey NOT prime rib

EAT cauliflower pizza NOT late night Dominos

EAT zucchini pasta with pesto NOT pasta and red sauce

 

Sides/Appetizers:

EAT cauliflower mash NOT mashed potatoes

EAT shrimp cocktail NOT shrimp dip

EAT veggies and hummus NOT veggies and ranch dip

 

Desserts:

EAT candied pecans NOT chocolate covered pecans

EAT oatmeal raisin cookies NOT chocolate chip cookies

EAT coconut cream pie NOT key lime pie (this one shocked me!)

Now I know it’s not easy to eat healthy all the time, and we will all deserve to splurge every now and then; so if you want the chocolate chip cookie, eat the cookie!! The most important part of the Holidays is being with friends and family, not what you’re doing or what you are eating. I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.
