Holiday NWS days

Post by Blithe Morning » Wed Dec 03, 2008 1:49 am

I just realized that I have one NWS days between now and Christmas. Our office Christmas party is usually a potluck and someone always brings a yummy treat. Since I will make this an S event rather than a day, I feel I am getting off easy. All the other holiday celebrations I know about are on regularly scheduled S days.

Great! A lot of times the holidays are easier than one might expect.

Plotting your NWS days in advance this month can be helpful, both in terms of realistic "threat assessment" and sticking to your guns.

I am planning a fairly "indulgent" December.

I took the 1st as NWS day as the tail-end of our Thanksgiving vacation since my husband was off, and I am taking Christmas Eve Day, Christmas Day, and New Years Eve day.

That seems to work for me. Some months my NWS days are sparse but I load up on them when my husband takes time off ...

we watch the Lord of the Rings trilogy over Christmas Eve Day and Christmas Day ... it is a "snacky" thing we do once a year and have a lot of fun. THis year will be especially fun since I am on NO S and it will be .... ahh "guilt free"

and then we like to have a "special date night" on New Years Eve so it will also be nice to take NWS day that day!

AND the beauty of it, I will still be well within my average of 2 NWS days per month since I started NO S in March.

Thanksgiving was the best ever cause of the NO S DIET ... definitely thank you for that Reinhard! I suspect the rest of the holidays will be equally ENJOYABLE.
