It’s so common for women to “let themselves go” during the holiday season where they overeat and under exercise, and come January, they go balls-to-the-wall in the gym trying to undo all of the holiday “damage.” Going from one extreme to the next is EXTREMELY stressful to you body and you end up doing more harm than good. You can be different and actually LOSE WEIGHT and GAIN HEALTH during the holidays.If you need some help, we have some tips for you: #1: Train Smarter, Not Harder: DO NOT stop exercising because it’s the holiday season! Keep your exercise routine as simple as possible. Even if you have to exercise a bit less, that’s ok, but don’t just stop for the next two to four weeks. #2: Feast Before Festive Events If you have a lot of festive events lined up and you know that you’ll go way beyond your 10%, eat protein and fiber-rich snack prior to going. Showing up to a holiday party on an empty stomach will definitely send you on a devouring detour. Sometimes you are at the mercy of other peoples cooking. Be gracious, but dont gorge! Often times there is little or no fiber to be found at parties, buffets, or family meals. Fill up on fiber sources at home then enjoy protein at the party! (If possible, plan to bring a low-carb high fiber wrap) Fiber is great for weight loss, feeling full and satisfied, and preventing over-eating!
