It's Fall

The days are getting shorter. The sun is not warm enough. You start getting chills in the morning. Walking to work, you see the stores beautifully decorated with pumpkins — the color orange is everywhere. Yes, the new holiday season is slowly starting up. And this makes me feel really excited. There’s so much energy, so much to do and so many parties to attend — Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year’s Eve, just to name a few.

This is not only the time of the year for parties but also the time when we start worrying about our diets, especially when we ponder what we are going to wear for each party and how we look. But, I think, what is more important is how we get started on a diet strategy that will not let our bodies go to hell. So, this autumn, I’ll guide you through, with my own experience, on how to enjoy the festivities without adding those extra 15 pounds that most people add during the holidays.

I will begin a series of articles that are more than just articles. You can think of them as Boy Scout Principles for Holidays. For example, what should you do first? Well, get yourself into the mood. You can do this by getting your house ready. How? By changing your home décor. Halloween and Thanksgiving share a common color and fruit — orange and pumpkins. So, for me, I start by cleaning up my vases and trays. Then, I fill these with pumpkins of different shapes and varieties. I also like to put around orange candles. Sometimes I will even use other colored candles. I also like the traditional bronze mum plant or daisy mum plant. Don’t tell me that when you see them out there, the holiday cheer does not immediately overcome you.

Okay, I can keep talking and talking about the coming wonderful season. So, let me tell you what I really want to say. Here is basically what I’m going to lay out for you this Fall season:
