Little of planning, a dash of goal setting and dose of old fashioned discipline and control over yourself will let you enjoy the holiday season without any worries. Let me list down few ways wherein you can follow your diet and stay in great shape too.
Staying on Track with Your Fitness Program During the Holidays
Holidays are just an excuse to go off track from your fitness program. People often have the mindset that because they diligently follow their fitness routines throughout the week, month or year they can allow themselves to indulge in enjoying cakes and ice creams. However it is important to strive to stay on track with your fitness program during holidays, like this one and others. By skipping workouts, eating more, exercising less one tends to gain weight. It's akin to returning to our initial starting point. Make a decision to stay in shape with all the food around you.
Setting Goals and Prioritizing Your Health During Festive Times
Holidays are a hectic time. All premeditated schedules can go haywire. To stay on track, create a workout timetable listing down all the parties, dinners and so on. Place your timetable in a location that you encounter every day. This will serve as a reminder to adhere to your schedule.
If your intention is to shed 25 pounds during the holiday season while still enjoying parties establish a goal, in advance and commence your efforts towards achieving it.The goal can also be to gain few kilos also.
With so much lip smacking, gorgeous food all around, you will feel tempted to just give your fitness program. Keep one day aside where you can treat yourself to all your cravings and give in to all your bingeing. Continue following your fitness program for the remaining days. And don’t feel even one iota of guilt while satiating yourself. Schedule your day to cheat on fitness routine when you have a major event lined up.
If you skip one day of exercise, don’t despair. Get on with it the next day. Nothing goes waste. Taking a day off from your fitness routine to enjoy a holiday can actually serve as a motivating factor to get back, on track with your fitness goals.
Balancing Indulgence and Fitness: A Strategic Approach
In case you have a planned dinner it's possible that you might consider skipping either your morning or afternoon meal.Avoid changing your eating pattern. Treat the big dinner party at night just like regular dinner time and eat how much you would eat normally.
Control food portion size in holidays. Eat your favorite foods in moderation. Overindulgence will show around your waistline.
Smart Eating Choices for a Healthy Holiday Season
One always has choices, no matter where you are. When faced with options strive to make the decision. If that is not feasible opt, for a portion, than a larger one when eating.
Drink 8 – 10 glasses of water daily. Having a few glasses of water before dinner can help manage your appetite and prevent those pesky hunger pangs from taking over. If you just drink and not eat a well-balanced meal, you will bloat. Stay consistently hydrated by drinking water throughout the day.
