How to: Get back on track after pigging out over the holiday’s!

I have to tell you…

Stepping on the scale this morning was a smack of reality. Before  the holidays, I was on a serious mission to drop the added weight that had unknowingly found it’s way onto my ass. I did however, manage to lose   5 lbs. that I had gained,  weeeee. So, when I stood on the scale this morning to discover, not only had I gain the five pounds back, but I added another pound and a half to my inner thighs, you could only imagine my frustration.

The reality is,  I created unrealistic expectations for myself . Have you ever been guilty of that?  Do you create goals for yourself that are unrealistic and then suffer from “This-sucksidose ” syndrome?

Lesson Learned :

Don’t set unrealistic goals for yourself ! Avoid saying things like, “I will lose 10 lbs. in two hours”, it is a set up for failure!

Solution:

Instead, try making short term goals that are realistic for you to keep. For example, “I will break a sweat for at least 30 minutes, 3-4 times  THIS week.” Another could be, “I will not eat after 7:30 pm every night THIS week.”

See how you do.

So far so it’s been really working… however, it’s only Monday!

Eating right during holiday season can be a biatch! Nutritionist, Stephanie Lecovin gave me some helpful tips on how to beat the holiday bulge. Here is what she suggests:

Here are a few tips to help people stay on track during the holiday season:
1. Deck the halls with fruits & veggies! Keep containers of cut up fruits and veggies available for munching.
2. Making egg nog? Think twice. We’re talking sugar, sugar, fat and more sugar! You’re much better off having a glass of red wine!
3. Go nuts! Roasted nuts (walnuts, pecans, almonds, pistachios, etc.) mixed with dark chocolate are a healthy, decadent treat.
4. Never bake cookies for Santa on an empty stomach. Also, be realistic…if you want to enjoy one or two of those cookies, sit down and enjoy them! Don’t eat them standing up, distracted, and feeling guilty.
5. Eat a balanced dinner before going to a cocktail party. You’ll be less likely to over-indulge in unhealthy appetizers or desserts and will at least have something in your stomach before drinking. 6. Choose your side dishes wisely. Make lots of colorful veggie dishes (salads, Brussels sprouts, green beans, etc.) and just one starchy side (potatoes, stuffing, sweet potatoes, bread, etc.).

Happy holidays to all! Eat smart!

After  Jack, (my second child) was born, reality smacked hard and fast. “Two kids… ahhhhhh!”  Being a mommy is HARD, (delicious, don’t get me wrong, but HARD.) Taking care of my self sat very low on my “Daily, To do” list. I was right above,  # 8: Get milk and toilet paper. I finally got so fed up, that I worked out a quirky little system that lets me get it all done at once.

As result, I was able to:

• Maximize  my time better
• Get a really good work out in while I multitasked
  
• got rid of my excess baby weight
  
• toned up
• got a cleaner  house
• changed my crappy eating habits
  

This site is about my own empowerment to take charge, give myself a kick in the ass, and get contol  over  my own life, not just the kids.

I’m finally (almost) organized (still working on that one, those who know me shhhh), so I can share my thoughts with you.

I leave you with my motto.

“Make the best with what ya got,  but get off your tush and actually do it!”

Live it, breathe it, own it.
