You have committed to the TAIslim 90 Day Challenge and received your first Challenge Pack. Your willpower is strong, but you realize that the holiday season, with all its tasty, high-calorie temptations, is right around the corner. With Halloween on your doorstep, your workplace will soon become the little shop of caloric horrors. Here are some tips to help you avoid the lure of workplace holiday treats:

  • Keep your wrappers on your desk. You are likely to eat more if there’s no evidence of what you’ve already consumed.
  • Bring your own healthy snacks. Providing yourself with alternatives can help thwart the urge to reach for treats with frightful calorie consequences.
  • Don’t get discouraged. And, if you do slip, don’t throw in the towel. Just review your weight loss goals and press on. Don’t let one bad day keep you off course.
  • Find an accountability partner. If you and a partner are looking out for one another, you are far less likely to slip into a pit of candy corn.

Following these easy tips will help you avoid taking a holiday from your TAIslim Challenge goals.
