HOLIDAY SURVIVAL GUIDE
So the holidays are just around the corner, and you are worried that you won't be able to stay on track. Nobody likes to feel like they are missing out. The one thing I stress to my accountability partners are:
We are our own worse critics. Don't say anything about yourself you wouldn't say to your best friends face. BE KIND to yourself, and let go of the guilt.
- Be consistent- get moving daily. Check in with your accountability group if you can't find the motivation. Someone is doing what you wish that you weren't making excuses for right now.
- Eat before you attend parties (I personally eat protein such as chicken, extra lean beef or extra lean turkey before I head to a party, that way I don't feel as tempted to snack as much as if I were hungry).
- Drink water between each drink ( if you drink hard liquor- mix with Zevia instead of regular or diet pop. Its naturally sweetened with Stevia. You can find it in the organic aisle in Super store, Sobeys and Save on Foods. I will skip one of my fruit that day if I know I am going to have drinks, and make sure I drink my Shakeology that day for the missed nutrients).
- Grab a small plate at dinner. Keep in mind you still want to get in your nutrients for the day. You plate should be 80% veggies, 20% carbs and fruit.
- Focus on socializing, not the food.
We are all human- nobody is perfect. So enjoy yourself, keep these above tips in mind. Get rest! Your body will recover when you get a good night sleep, and most of all forgive yourself.
Do your best- you know where to find me if you fall off the wagon. Always remember- I believe in YOU! And a balanced life of food and fitness.
Love,
