A loose structure keeps you grounded when routines disappear. This week doesn’t need a strict schedule, but it does benefit from a few anchors. When normal routines fall apart, having simple reference points keeps you from drifting into autopilot. Think in terms of anchors, not rules: • a protein-focused first meal • a walk or movement block • planned meals instead of grazing • hydration check-ins • a short pause before snacking You don’t need to control every hour. You just need a few touchpoints that remind you who you are and what you’re building. Loose structure = freedom with direction. That’s how you stay steady during the holidays. ✅ Check-In for Today 📸 Meal photo 👣 Step count 📝 Reflection: What’s one simple “anchor habit” you’re using today to stay grounded while your routine is lighter than normal?

Less structure doesn’t mean less control. As work slows down, it’s easy for boredom to sneak in and boredom loves to disguise itself as hunger. You don’t need to eat just because things are quieter. You don’t need to snack just because food is nearby. And you don’t need to give in to pressure just to fill time. Today is about redirecting, not restricting. When the urge to mindlessly eat shows up, pause and choose an alternative: • take a walk • drink water • stretch or move for a few minutes • step outside • distract your hands • check in with how you actually feel Having a plan for what you’ll do instead keeps you out of old traps. Quiet time doesn’t have to lead to overeating, it can be where awareness and control get stronger. ✅ Check-In for Today 📸 Meal/snack photo 👣 Step count 📝 Reflection: When boredom or extra downtime hits today, what’s one alternative action you’ll use instead of mindless eating?
