Now is the time....ACT FAST!

Well helloooooo Turkey trotters! Are you still eating leftovers? Put that pie fork down, it's time to STOP and ACT FAST! It's December 1st.....you know what that means, the Christmas Season of parties has begun! And so you need to have a plan of attack or before you know it, January and you will roll into 2015..... 10 pounds heavier! Ugh!!! Nobody wants that!! You're being FIT4U, you've worked out, you've eaten right, don't sabotage yourself this December! A party is one night, maybe 3hrs......don't roll those 3hrs into 4 weeks of terrible eating!! How you eat this December is a prelude to 2015, start out strong, not behind the eight ball like all the other gym rats looking for a treadmill come January. Yes, don't be a cliche!! Your resolution should be to stay fit, not get fit!!! So how will YOU do this?? Pick and choose when to indulge and when not too! No all or nothing eating/thinking! That is don't overeat for a week just because you had a piece of pie, we all can have dessert and stay fit too. So moderation at the parties, 2 drink maximum, alcohol loves to secretly pack on the pounds AND bring down your self control, naughtily telling you to overeat! Appetizers at a party? Make one small tasting plate, no need to sit yourself by the dip, ya dig? And choose one party to have that little extra indulgence, hey it is the Holiday Season. BUT there will be plenty of opportunity through Christmas, New Years and this entire month to have a treat here and there, you won't starve, SO pick and choose when to indulge and when not to, moderation, serving size is KEY, and do find time to move!! Even a walk through the snow with a friend is a great way to stay on top of being FIT4U! You got this!!! (And one more extra......count your calories in between weekend parties, this will save your waistline, and Keep you on track! 3 meals, 2 snacks or 5 small meals a day, all spaced 2-3 hrs part will keep that metabolism going! Avoid as much sugar as possible, too, one sweet treat a week will also have you high fiveing your scale come January! :)
