One of the things I hate most about "The Holidays" is that it is the hardest time of year to get and stay motivated to workout and eat healthy. But the worst part about it is that it is just assumed that it will be hard! I am CHALLENGING ALL OF YOU this year between Thanksgiving and January 1st, 2009 to determine with others on this post that rather than just going with the flow and letting ourselves go...we will prevail!
Let's decide how we will live our lives rather than letting our lives decide FOR us! What will it be for you? Perhaps a commitment to drinking half your body weight in ounces every day, or getting a minimum of three 60minute workouts in every week? Maybe you want to give up the processed carbs every day except the BIG holi-DAYs. How about keeping a consistent log of all your workouts and eating for 34days so you can keep track of all that you accomplish? Wanna start a yoga class...its a great way to reduce stress:)!
I challenge you ALL to commit to what you want most out of the holidays...living a life you can feel proud of and that brings you joy. Not for the sake of how you look, but to be able to participate in life so that every year gets better and better...even if buying gifts and stuffing turkeys doesn't!
