So…back to Thanksgiving…Yes
the food is amazing, but what I cherish most is the time spent with family and
the memories made. With the craziness of the holiday season, we can sometimes
put our health on the back burner.
Little by little we over indulge, skip workouts, have huge portions, and
end up feeling like crap leading into the new year which only forces us to make
yet another New Year’s Resolution of “get in shape.” So I wanted to share some
tips I have learned in recent years to avoid that, but first let's hear the
promotions and sales happening this month!
Once again we have both the 21 Day Fix and the Fix Extreme challenge packs on sale. Love shakeology and
know someone who wants the 21 day fix for Christmas? One of these would be
perfect for you!
This month we also have the Cize
Challenge Pack with Shakeology and the 21 Day Fix Containers on sale! All of
these are $140 for the month of November!
Aside from those the Cize Kickstart Challenge Pack as well as the 21 Day Fix and Fix Extreme Kickstart Challenge Packs will be on sale. With these packages you get a month
supply of shakeology, the fitness program, containers, and the 3 Day Refresh
Cleanse which might come in handy after Thanksgiving! $180!
Now for the good stuff, here are my top tips to
have a happy, healthy, Thanksgiving.
1.
Eat Breakfast! Start
Thanksgiving day off with a veggie egg white omelette or a bowl of oatmeal!
Saving up calories for the big feast does not work. You end up 'spending' a lot
more and overindulging because you are so hungry. Or have your shakeology
to kick off the day in the best way possible with all the nutrients you need!
2. Pitch
In! Offer to bring a healthy version of a dish to the dinner you are
attending. Sweet potatoes are always a good one. Many times they are loaded
with sugar so here is a healthy version! http://www.recipetobefit.com/2014/03/stuffed-sweet-potatoes.html
3.
Divide your plate! Fill your plate half with veggies, one quarter with white turkey meat,
and the rest with a healthy starch such as corn or sweet potatoes.
4.
Start the day with physical activity! Just because it is a holiday doesn't mean that you
need to skip your workout. If you can't get your workout in take a walk with
the family when you are finished eating.
5. KEEP
YOUR GOALS IN MIND! Before
heading to your Thanksgiving feast take a few moments to really focus and think
about yourself and your goals. Remind yourself of your ultimate vision: a
healthier, leaner, happier you! Most importantly have fun with the people you
love!
I will be hosting a challenge group to keep you
on tract during the holidays starting on November 16th as
well as a 3 Day Refresh Cleanse challenge starting on November 30th.
If you are interested in joining either of these let me know!
I hope you all have an amazing November and
holiday!
Your Coach,
Lynn
December 2nd is when I finally get to meet the team, get the official training schedule and get after it!! With less than 5 months until race day, the butterflies in my stomach will probably continue through race day.
