How to Avoid Holiday Eating

With the holidays comes family time, delicious dinners that we don't always get to enjoy, and of course overeating. Indulging a little more than we would like and the after feeling of bloating, sleepiness, etc. So how do you enjoy the holidays without overeating?

- This is a normal day  wake up like you would any other day. Get up, get your workout in, have your meals scheduled out & stick to your plans.

- What's your plan  make sure you write out your game plan. From the time you are waking up, your meal plan, when you are eating, what you are going to indulge in. If you don't have a plan it will be easy for you to slip up and fall off track. 

- Stay hydrated make sure you are getting your water in. (half your body weight in ounces) You very well could be dehydrated instead of hungry. I challenge you to drink a glass of water every hour. For every alcoholic drink, have a glass of water.

- Stick to your portions of course you can enjoy your holiday meals, but make sure you don't over do it. You want to feel good & not bloated after eating.  You can overdo all your hardwork in one meal.

- Get your workouts in get a good 30 minute cardio session before you start your day. This will help you increase your energy, feel great, and you won't feel as guilty eating your favorite cookie.

-Don't feel guilty  remember the holidays are a time to enjoy your company with family. Stick to your plan, enjoy yourself, and remember this a lifestyle change. If you over indulge start fresh the next day. 

 

I hope you all have the best holidays ever! Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!!

Overview : Day One Insanity Max 30

Have you got your Insanity Max yet?

Have you tried it?

I have to share my initial thoughts. I never did the original insanity. I never had an desire too. Honestly I was always afraid of Shaun T. He was way too intense for my liking & I never really was a cardio girl. But I decided to give it a try....why you may ask?

 

1. So I knew what the program was like and I could talk about it to others. You can't really talk about something/recommend it if you haven't experienced it yourself.

2. Honestly I've been slacking off on my workouts and nutrition lately.  I really haven't had my head in the game lately: I've been going for run, eating semi healthy, & my portions are just out of this world.

3. I never did insanity. Can you believe that? One of the first programs with Beachbody and I never did it. Because I never considered myself a cardio girl. I loved lifting weighs and building muscle, but lie I said before he (Shaun T) scared the living crap outta me.

4. Needed a change. They say what doesn't challenge you ; doesn't change you. I've been getting "bored" with my workouts and I was just going through the motions.

This program going to be insane! High impact but you can always use a modifier. It's all about pushing yourself, digging deeper, & getting inside your head to challenge yourself to be better. I'm only in day two of the program and I love it. Although, right now I won't lie I dread the workouts...only because I have no idea what to expect. He really does channel your inner you & kinda makes you think. Are you pushing hard enough or whipping out. And for a nicer use of words he kicks you BOOTAY! 

If you are looking for a challenge. Something to push you hard. Give you a reality check. And get insane results in 60 days ..... THIS IS YOUR PROGRAM!

GET ON IT!

WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR!!!
