Episode Synopsis

Navigating the holiday season, especially Thanksgiving and Christmas, can be challenging for those striving to maintain healthy eating habits. In this episode, we explore practical strategies to avoid overeating and stay committed to your goals during this food-centric time of year. Whether you're hosting or attending a gathering, planning ahead is crucial—decide what you’ll eat and bring a dish you can enjoy guilt-free. Prayer, planning, and accountability are the cornerstones of success, helping you resist temptations and remain focused on your journey.

We also dive into common pitfalls like high-fat foods, sugary sauces, and pressure from "food pushers." Learn how to graciously say no, avoid triggers like processed foods, and lean on Scripture for strength and guidance. Verses like 1 Corinthians 10:13 remind us that God provides a way out of temptation, while Galatians 5 encourages us to cultivate the fruits of the Spirit, including self-control. With tips for handling tricky social situations and staying prepared, this episode equips you with the tools to maintain your abstinence and enjoy the holidays without guilt.

Finally, we discuss the importance of community and accountability in staying strong during the holidays. Whether through a trusted friend, a 12-step group, or a partner, support is vital in achieving long-term success. You’ll also hear about tools like the Daily Food and Step Journal, designed to help you plan meals, track progress, and stay rooted in faith. As we celebrate the season, let’s remember it’s not about the food—it’s about honoring God, embracing joy, and sharing love with others.
