3 Awesome Ideas to Get Back On Track After the Holiday + Free Secret No-Bake Weight Loss Dessert Rec

So OK……………

Your Mom force fed you cookies every day for 4 days solid!

You got completely stressed out about how your Aunt Betty snuck in that

comment about your thighs at the family dinner table! And you’ve never been good at New Year’s Resolutions anyway.

So now what?

RELAX.........Here are 3 quick body hacks to get you back on track after you've slid off for whatever reason.

#1

Instead of looking at everyone else and making comparisons, create a healthy and realistic expectation about your own body and health. Then, set your intention to change if this is what you decide you really want to do. Don't consider your partner, your mom, your aunt Betty or the girl who called you a pork chop in 7th grade.

#2

Combine your daily fun time (and if you don’t have it in your schedule it’s time to put it there) with your exercise time whenever you get the chance. Get creative; this can really make a difference in your life if you want it to.

Here's one idea. Find some really awesome music that you love to listen to. Then put it on and stand up. Next, start moving in any way you feel like moving until you get your heart rate up a bit but not so much that you can’t sing or speak easily.

Raise you hand over your head and do some crazy dance moves that really get your heart moving. When the song is over, stop and rest a bit. Let your heart rate settle down then repeat the sequence several times. You'll be done in less than half an hour and feel super rejuvenated.

#3

Choose your food wisely. Follow your own intentions and feelings and don't base your food choices on anyone else’s opinion ever. Read, study and think about your food choices. Synthesize your knowledge but don't rely on others to make your decisions for you.
