Great Recommendations! Better to pace yourself eating and exercising.

@Kat I completely agree with that one! I love the extra days off that give me the time to go for a long run or an extra-long gym session without feeling crunched for time.

For me, just like the rest of the year, it’s all about balance. Once you realize that the second helping of dinner or the second (or third) piece of pie doesn’t taste nearly as good as the first, you’re way ahead of the game. I love to indulge, but I do so in moderation.

Great post, a great reminder to stay on track.

Kat,

I couldn’t agree more about keeping up your regular exercise routine over the holidays. I think I actually have better workouts over the holidays because of all the days off from work. You just have to use the time to your advantage.

I personally don’t find this time of the year any different from the rest of the year. Sure there are more parties and sweets to be had, but enjoying the occasional treat is part of the lifestyle. The ideal world would be not having to do any exercise? It would be hell for me since regular exercise is what helps me to feel my best.
Sticking to your regular routine and clean diet and allowing yourself holiday sweets and treats from time to time has got to be how we see ourselves living everyday, all year long. Its not stop and go…its living life to the fullest, thriving not just surviving.

The Christmas holidays are always the most challenging time of year for keeping fit and eating well. I think the key is to avoid writing it off until January and learn the art of “damage limitation”. Too many people will spend the first 6 months of 2010 working off the weight they gained in the last week of 2009… pointless.

Sound advice.

I tried this approach for Thanksgiving. Unfortunately, as an ex-sugar junky I was thrown completely off the wagon after allowing some sweet stuff in. I gained 12 pounds (not counting water), and have been on a several week roller coaster.

I’ve regained focus & will be dieting though the holidays so I can stay on track. I blew my chance. Kind of upsetting that I can’t just be “normal” when it comes to sugar consumption
