Amaze Yourself this Christmas

posted in: Food

Christmas parties, shopping, eggnog, cookies, cakes, pies, turkey I can spend 5 minutes listing all the wonderful things that make Christmas one of my favorite times of the year. As you spend time with your family and friends this Christmas I wanted to share with you some simple easy to do tips that can help you avoid those dreaded unwanted calories.

Being that it is Christmas I know many women love this time because we get a chance to do what we do best….SHOP. As you’re out shopping this weekend don’t allow food and sweet temptations overwhelm you. Here are few items you can do to eat while out and about:

  • McDonald’s fruit and yogurt parfait ~160 calories
  • Chickfila dream cone~170 calories
  • Starbucks cappuccino (tall with nonfat milk no whip) ~ 75 calories
  • Wendy’s chili~ 190 calories
  • For a detailed list of the On the Go healthy food items download a copy of my free report.

One thing I want to stress is forget about dieting. This is the time of year where food is what brings  families together. I wouldn’t want you to be sitting around not enjoying some of your mom’s to die for mac and cheese all because you’re on a “diet.”  The key to success is moderation. You can still partake of the food and not worry if what you ate will stick to your hips in the morning. Some of the students of the 21 Day Health and Fitness Challenge can attest to that fact.  They followed these tips and didn’t gain a pound for Thanksgiving and you can too!

  • Monitor you portions
  • Eat more vegetables
  • Decrease alcohol consumption
  • Turkey (white part) no skin
  • Substitute fat for non fat items ( i.e. milk for nonfat milk or sour cream
  • Limit the sweets ( sharing is caring) :-)
  • Push away from the table when full
  • Get moving (walk, clean up, play with the kids)

There’s a week left before Christmas so go ahead and make plans to enjoy your self,  just remember to make health conscious food choices and you’ll be amazed at how well you do.

Merry Christmas!

    When it comes to physical exercise, Rob Poulos is firmly against long-time exercise, and that is why fat burning furnace teaches you to do brief yet intense exercise three times a week. More importantly, Fat burning furnace emphasizes the importance of Resting Metabolic Rate in a way that no programme ever did. The essential idea is to increase the sum of calories that your body burns while you are resting. Attaining high Resting Metabolic Rate is literally to get trim and lean body shape effortlessly.
