My Best Tips for Handling Food Pushers T...

CORINNE CRABTREE
About this episode

The holidays are coming. And you're already worried about family and friends pushing food on you, saying: 

"Come on, live a little."

I know how you feel. I never wanted to hurt anyone's feelings during the holidays by being "rude." So I ate my face off instead of saying "no" if I didn't want something that was offered.

But when I lost my weight I started putting my own needs first. And today I'm sharing how to do it without feeling like a bitch.

Listen to "My Best Tips for Handling Food Pushers This Holiday Season," for:

  • 3 reasons it can be hard to say "no" to a food pusher
  • What food pushers really want (it's not what you think)
  • 4 ways to deal with food pushers without guilt

Plus, I'm revealing the conversation that changed everything with my mother-in-law. (And one thing that made it much easier for me).

You don't have to stay home to lose weight during the holidays. But you also don't have to say "yes" to food just to be "nice." Listen to today's episode to know how to navigate food pushers like a boss.

Managing food pushers is one way not to give up on weightloss "until New Year's." Make this the year you wake up on January 1st feeling good, instead of stuffed with regret.

P.S. Don't spend another holiday season wishing you'd done things differently. Join me for my brand-new workshop on Sunday, October 27th: Lose 10 Pounds by January 1st. You CAN lose weight over the holidays without giving up what you love. Want to know exactly how to wake up on New Years 10 pounds lighter (instead of weighted down with regret)? Sign up HERE.
