Here are some helpful tips to keep you fit!
- Do a minimum of 30 minutes of exercise per day whether it’s brisk walking, trying a new exercise, home circuit training, jogging – something!
- Eat a light healthy snack or mini meal before you go to any party
- Alternate your holiday cheer with a glass of sparkling water or 2
- Eat 5-6 healthy snacks per day that include lean protein such as string cheese, grilled chicken strips, hard boiled eggs, protein shakes
- Strive for 6-8 hours of sleep, stretching and relaxation time (easy…I can hear you giggling from here)
- Drink lots of water: 1 glass when you wake up, before each meal, before bed
- Be picky about which desserts you enjoy
- Eat the healthiest foods on the plate first
- Don’t fret about portion sizes; use a salad plate instead it’s easier
- Salad dressing on the side, dip your fork into the dressing and then into the salad (less dressing, same taste)
- Eat stress combating foods: salmon, turkey, chicken, beans, whole grains, spinach, olive oil, flaxseed, oats, asparagus, leafy green veggies, berries and my favorite: a piece of rich dark chocolate 70% cocoa or +
- Take 5 minutes and stretch, especially if you sit at a desk all day
- Keep trigger foods out of the house
- Ask for help (hard for me to do too)
- Surround yourself with positive people who give you energy instead of taking it away (the dreaded energy vampires!)
My kids give me such positive energy!
- Karma: Share & lose 5 lbs.
