Explore dietitian-approved tips on stopping anxiety around Christmas weight gain, and learn how you can stop it getting in the way of your holiday parties and plans
December 12, 2019 - 11:08 GMT hellomagazine.com Many people may suffer from anxiety around Christmas eating and worry about the impact that being less restrictive with their eating will have on their waistline. The truth is that Christmas should be a time where you can relax and enjoy celebrating with food and drink without guilt or anxiety about your weight or your diet.
If there was far less fear mongering about weight gain at Christmas from the diet industry and many more open conversations about how unhealthy it is to be feeling anxious about food at a time that is supposed to be happy, we would be in a far better position. Many people don’t want to start thinking about making healthy lifestyle choices until January because they believe that Christmas will undo all their hard work anyway. This is of course, completely false.
If you are feeling anxious about weight gain over Christmas, try asking yourself why. Will gaining a couple of pounds make anyone love you any less? Will it make you less of a good parent or worse at your job? Will it mean that you are any less valuable as a human in any way? Absolutely not.
