Easter Tips

Nervous the holiday will get the best of you. 

Don't want to throw your results down the drain.

Easter Tips
 

Try some of these TO DOs to keep on track :

1. Wake up & workout- don't skip your workout just cause it's a holiday. Get up and get moving. If it's an active recovery day like me (my schedule is yoga), I suggest adding in a little cardio to get your heart rate going.

2. Stay hydrated- make sure you are still getting your water in. If you will be drinking, remember for every one drink you replace with on glass of water.

3. Be prepared- if you are cooking try and make Easter a little healthier. There's always ways to make your dishes cleaner. If you are going somewhere ask if you can bring something, that way your in control of one dish. 

4. Ask what's on the menu- make sure the hosts know you aren't asking for something special you just want to know so you can plan your eating. What you wint have, what you'll splurge a little on, etc. 

5. Eat something small- if you're worried you won't be able to contain yourself, eat before you leave so you'll be somewhat full. 

6. Don't graze- ask if the kitchen needs help but don't be a picker. This is where drinking water helps, or if you know you will pick ask if you can help somewhere else. 

7. Get your shake on- always drink your shake. You know you're getting one healthy meal. 

8. Don't stress- the holidays are supposed to be fun and spending time with family. Don't stress over what you're going to eat & if you eat too much. If you do don't sweat it, do what you can, and get back on track Monday.
