so i am not the expert on personal health and fitness, but i am just going to put this out there. it’s the fucking holidays. stop beating yourself up, stop ruining delicious meals for yourself by feeling self-conscious, stop feeling awkward about candy gifts and chocolate coins and eggnog and gingerbread. 

i love all of my friends, and all of my friends happen to be really pretty, handsome, attractive, stylish, well-dressed, awesome, and all those other things. i’m not being nice, it’s a fact. everyone i know is super cute. so when i hear someone say “oh my god i ate like three cookies somebody stop me,” it makes me a little sad. we are normal people. it is not our professional duty to be perfect bodies. we are not supermodels.

so this holiday, eat an extra latke even though it’s fried in ~300 calories worth of just oil and potatoes have no nutritional contribution to make. have a little more ham because someone spent forever cooking that. and have another fucking gingerbread man because that shit is fucking awesome. you don’t normally stuff your face, but it’s also not normally christmas. so just enjoy yourself and worry about the extra two pounds tomorrow.
