A Healthy Halloween? It's Hard



While recommending that you find a way to appropriately participate in Halloween festivities around the office, may I suggest that you try your best to keep it healthy. Of course it's hard. It's way too easy to stuff yourself with bite sized (or what is now called fun size) junk. For that reason you need to be ready for it in advance. I personally have very little will power once "fun sized" candy is in front of me, but if it's not there, I won't go out to get it. So, prepare now. Refuse to buy garbage and find healthy alternatives. Popcorn, pretzels, nuts, and yes, even fruit will allow you to enjoy the day with no regrets. Not only that, but your co-workers (be they the dieters or the fitness fanatics) will appreciate you helping them avoid the temptations. I know you've heard this all before but my purpose in writing this is to remind you that there are others in the same boat. At times we all need a little reminder right?
