We've had a lot of changes that we see every year with celebrations. Is there something that you can say is significant about how people celebrate Christmas?
Is there anything that changed with Christmas?

In my perspective, nothing changed about Christmas because it has been like this starting from when I started growing up. The only thing that changes was us. We outgrown some certain things and celebrations of Christmas holidays is one of them.

Yes, there's something which changed in me after Christmas. Can you guess? Let me do it for you. I added more weight from eating too much 😂 😂 😂

Adding of weight is what Christmas period will always give you or anybody 😂
When I was good with food, I will always add so much weight.

I wouldn't blame it on food, but on relaxing. Christmas always brings a form of rest that even the little you eat brings you so much joy in the heart and body.

Essentially, there are differences in the manner in which Christmas is celebrated. It has shifted a bit more towards purchasing of items such as gifts and household decorations. By and large it was more of family and faith in the past. Technology has also influenced celebrations by modifying them to sharing of celebration images in social networks.

Mine is a lot more because 25th December is also my birthday. I have two celebrations in a day and that's double food and drinks 😂

True. I always make that exception to eat as much as possible because it's a celebration that comes only once in a year.

I won't agree that it's from relaxing. The amount of food that one can eat will bring so much fatness. I will say joy and big food is the reason for the fat.

Eating that much and drinking as much we want will bring only big stomach which will then results to accumulation of fat and people don't normally work much on Christmas.

Why do you think a lot of people gain so much weight after the Christmas celebration? It's because they can't help it with eating too much.

I've been battling with my mother's spiritual attack since November till today. It haven't been easy. It's practically what consumed the whole Christmas for me and I'm still at it.

Nothing really changed and it's been the usual old ways of doing things as people pay much attention to purchasing expensive gifts, accessories. They may not spend as much time on family and friends.

Some people don't find it easy to rest during Christmas because of too many engagements like wedding, burial ceremony, thanksgiving, coronations and so much more.

I won't be forced to attend many events that I had no plans to attend. So, I set my plans on how to attend and always end up pushing with it. I prioritise resting during Christmas so much.

Eating too much without exercise is one of the factor and I agreed to what you said. Christmas comes with many things which eating too much is one of them.

I hope she's getting better? I remembered your post about it last year. Spiritual attack isn't something that goes off easily that way, hope she gets better.

I don't have time to workout during Christmas. It's also my birthday month that's on 25th of December too. It's not possible to keep fit.

It haven't been easy but I believe God is at work. She will recover fully very soon. I hope you're doing well too?

Spiritual things ain't so easy to recover from. Your hope and her faith will save her. She must surely recover. I am fine, thank you.

You don't need to workout during Christmas because it's an enjoyment month starting from the first day to the last day in the month.
Hope you enjoyed your last birthday?
