Summer Snacking...Summer Bulging?

June 10, 2009 by thinkhappy

Okay ladies, we're all thinking about it, now let's talk about it! Summer is here and our kids will be out of school soon, which means our days will be more chaotic and potentially more stressful - and we all know what that means...stress eating....

So what's your plan to eat well this summer? 

For me, I'm NOT going to get ice cream every night while I'm on vacation.

I'm NOT going to eat chocolate every time I'm at the movies (or at least try not to! LOL!)

I'm going to plan my meals and ONLY keep healthy snacks in our house.

End of summer blues

Motherhood is a wonderful thing. We have our ups and downs. The days we love mothering and the days we can really use a break. But summer is always a time for treasured moments and laughter, popsicles and pleasures...until August hits. By August, we mothers are usually hot, tired, and in need of a little quiet time. We're ready to have our big-girl lives back. That doesn't mean that we don't love our children, just that we love our sanity, and sometimes sanity needs to be rejuvenated by our own schedules for a few hours of the day; aka school hours.
