Yes it’s that time
again…how quickly 2013 has flown by. It’s been a big year for many of us and
now it’s time to relax and spend a little R + R with friends and family.
While we all want to
indulge a little over this time it’s important to acknowledge that Christmas
Festivities need to be kept in perspective in order to not “undo” all the good
of the year’s workouts.
Here a few very
important, simple rules you may wish to try to help survive the festive season:
- Keep the real indulgent days to a minimum; say Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year's Day. A two to four week feeding frenzy can take its toll on the waistline.
- Don't try to lose weight over Christmas. Parties and celebrations can make slimming near impossible; so don't set yourself up for failure. Instead, keep your weight stable and get back into healthy eating after New Year.
- While Christmas is a lot of fun it can also be a very stressful time of year for us. Take time out each day to spend some quiet time on your own. That doesn’t mean you have to sit under a tree and meditate, just take 10 min to read a book, stop sit and listen to your favourite song, take a relaxing bath. This small amount of time alone will leave you relaxed and ready for the rest of the day’s activities.
- If you overdo it these holidays, set a firm New Year date to get back on track. By setting this date you can forget about your indulgences and focus on becoming slim, fit and fabulous in 2014.
