Feeling the “screw it, I’ll start in January” vibes creeping in? In this episode, Vanda shares five simple, realistic guidelines to help you enjoy the season and protect your energy, hormones, and blood sugar—without guilt or perfection.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Audit your calendar so six true “holiday” days don’t derail two months
  • Anchor your day with a high-protein breakfast (even on feast days)
  • Balance festive meals with smart, low-lift choices at the other meals
  • Ditch restriction and enjoy your family’s once-a-year favorites—guilt-free
  • Use hydration and movement to beat bloat, stabilize energy, and recover faster

Plus: a powerful reminder that what you do today shapes your period 90–100 days from now. Future-you will thank you in January, February, and March.
