During the holidays we are surrounded by great opportunities to socialize, catch up with friends, be around our family, find time to rest and relax (maybe!). On the flip side - this is also a time where we can lose sight of our health goals. Our schedules become erratic, meals become unpredictable, and workout routines may be nonexistent... if you let them.

Adults typically gain between 1-5 pounds over the holidays - but the more troubling statistic is that most never take the weight off.

PLAN FOR SUCCESS! - make a defined, reasonable and measurable goal before you go so that you can begin to visualize yourself coming back to your normal routine without needing to "back track". Once you have a goal set, move onto the next step. Below are NINE areas where most people struggle and your goal is to choose only THREE of them and make them a priority during your holiday or event. You'll come out feeling more success by setting goals you can achieve. Make sure not to focus on all of these things that most people get tripped up by - that will only lead to overwhelm. Stay focused, be where your feet are, enjoy the moment, just keep your goals in focus with an action plan.

It would mean the world to me if you followed and shared this episode. If you could also take seven seconds to give the show a 5 star rating, it would help and support others to make the sustainable changes in their life that can impact them beyond measure.
