informationshelter I would say strong black coffee without sugar after midday lunch, for digestion. Otherwise, especially if I go out with friends, I would prefer a sweet milky coffee, either hot or cold, depending on weather and the season of the year.

Losing weight preventively before the holidays

Robert Centauro @ourlot (982) 22 Nov 17

Holidays make fat. That's a fact. And some people go into diet mode soon after it's over. Wouldn't it be more intelligent losing preventively before they start? So we could eat with piece of mind.

informationshelter Yes, that would be a great idea! It could be more difficult to try to lose weight once you have gained it. This is also another way to enjoy holiday eating more, because you can feel the difference. I mean, food tastes more delicious after some abstinence....

informationshelter I think that's normal, because the younger one feels safe close to the elder one, and that causes overreaction sometimes. At least the elder kid accepts it without complaining. That's something.
