I couldn't resist
This time of the year poses challenges for most of us.
Okay, not most, some.
Maybe just me.
Summer is over.
I read somewhere about the biological imperative to store fat during the winter, a hold over from our prehistoric roots. Personally, I would have preferred to have intuitively known how to saute a mastodon, but apparently that wasn't a trait worth keeping.
What's a gal to do?
Right.
Think Olympian. A gold medal. A goal, a purpose, a reason to eat everything within reach. Still maintaining a workout schedule, a bone building regiment, to stave off, for a bit, the inevitable, ultimate shrinking frame.
There are, of course, alternative plans, courses of action, ways to deal.
Liz - I haven't commented nor read your writings in so long. This was a good one to come back to!
Just as my animals all get their winter coats on in response to the change of season - so do I get my winter extra 5+ - in response to overeating during the season! :)
Hope you're well and happy!

Welcome back - we missed you! And no, you are not alone. The inevitable challenge of the winter wobble.
