The average person gains 7lbs between Thanksgiving and Xmas! That is DISGUSTING! Here are some tips that WILL help you overcome this, but remember only YOU can control the outcome. For people that "feel bad to say NO" to someone at a holiday party, then you can THANK THEM for having to do extra cardio, telling them pants don't fit....I don't think they would then feel bad! Set boundaries and be honest with yourself!
- Say NO to all candy at work! (better not be at the house because YOU control this!) Ask people to respect your decision and invite them to KRAVE!
- Get a NON-DRAINING workout buddy! We have all worked out with someone before where one person plays trainer an the other follows and SUCKS the life out of you! End this! Push forward with a great workout buddy, with the same goals and ambitions!
- Don't forget to put you first! Often times we let the holidays, other commitments, work, shopping for presents, etc. get YOUR time in first!!!!! Make a calendar and mark every day IF you worked out and what you did...seeing what you did will keep you focused!
- WRITE out your GOALS! Ask yourself if you still have the same goals as 4 months ago? If you do, time to change people! INSANITY: doing the same thing over and over and expecting something new! Come on! Hold yourself accountable and be the change you want to see!!!!
- PROTEIN: Get 25g per meal people!.08g of protein PER pound of body weight
- Before your holiday parties, eat aVERY healthy fiber/protein rich meal; it will make you NOT eat any of the crap because you will be too full!
- Ice
- 1/2c of canned pumpkin
- 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder
- dash of cinnamon
- 1- vanilla chobani yogurt
