What a silly idea-to Diet During the Holidays!
Have you ever heard of a diet during the holiday season? What fun is the celebration if you can not let yourself enjoy the festive food and drinks? You should be able to find the holiday season fun, and still enjoy your favorite foods, but do it with great judgment.
Eat before you go to the party
Sounds kind of silly, but if you eat a hearty protein enhanced meal, with no sugar and starches an hour before you are to arrive at the party, you will have less temptations to over eat and drink. The holiday season is about rekindling personal relationships with friends and family, and not about getting fat! What good will it do you to over eat on chips, dip, and sugary cookies if you are in a new initiative to become the new you! You can eat before you go, take a small plate from the buffet table, and enjoy what you want. You will already be full, so you will eat less, and be OK with enjoying your time.
Share your new mindset with others!
The best way to keep your focus during this time is to ensure your ability to be the best new you, and share your new found passion to become the new you. If you are working on losing weight, you have learned much about healthy one ingredient foods, to stay away from sugars and starches, and what drinking water can do to improve your life. Share your story and you will be intriguing and the life of the party!
Dance, dance, dance the night away!
Right along with your new found positive mindset, comes a great new energy, so do not let it stop you from forming a dance party right in the living room, increasing your happy energy, and sharing it with others. Or, plan to play a game, and bring one so that everyone can enjoy! This is perfectly acceptable, and your host does not have to provide every part of the party. Enjoy your friends and family, learn to break away from just the food, and you will be glad you did.
Lose Weight during the Holidays, but be sure to enjoy yourself as well! Dieting is still the way to go, but do not let yourself miss all the goodies, just stop yourself from eating them all, and wrecking your new lifestyle with an evening out.
