Thanksgiving can be such a stressful time - traveling, seeing family, taking time away from routines, but MAINLY, worried about alllllll the food you'll be eating & taking a "break" from scheduled movement....
Maybe you adopt that "f it" mentality & go HARD at Thanksigivng dinner BUT know you'll dreading that post-dinner food-coma you know you'll inevitably fall into after stuffing your face with 3-4 plates of food + dessert after and THEN, feeling like you need to punish yourself with vigourous exercise....
This was my experience for years!!! I looooove food, I love Thanksgiving, BUT the thought of not having access to a gym when traveling home & being around SO MUCH yummy food freaked me out! Having the intention of enjoying rest & eating good food I don't normally eat but succumbing to total loss of control at the dinner table & feeling GUILTY AS HELL afterwards. Not fun.
