The season is a time for celebration and family, but it doesn’t have to mean excessively greedy eating.
It might not be a time to lose weight, but it doesn’t have to be a time to lose your health.
Go into the holidays with a plan to maintain health over the holidays.
Stock up the fridge on the good stuff, cupboards with healthy foods and have healthy snacks handy.
Schedule those workouts just as any other appointment.
Create opportunities to be active every day by taking a walk or jog on the beach, swim and take the stairs.
Drink plenty of water.
Most people over-indulge over the festive season and feel guilty when they return from holiday in the new year.
Therefore start the New Year on the right foot by joining a local club.
