Heidi has you covered this holiday season if you're hoping to stay healthy. This episode begins our 4 part Healthy Holiday series. 

Part 1: Weight management among all the treats and seasonal delights.

Part 2: Sleep and stress relief while still enjoying Christmas parties and buying presents.

Part 3: Diet and exercise tips to keep you healthy enough and temper overindulgence. 

Part 4: Staying hydrated among the hustle and bustle (and why it's worth focusing on!)

Take Aways

  • With some planning, you can eat some sweets, indulge a little, and maintain your current weight over the holidays.
  • You have a lot of control over your health.
  • Have a plan that includes 12-16 hours of intermittent fasting, 2 hour breaks between eating meals and snacks, what you'll eat (and what you won't), the amount of food you'll eat (same as now, less than now, or more than now), and record your weight each day.
  • Consider what you will do differently from your plan at each event you hope to attend.
  • Allow for humanity by giving yourself grace when you mess up and by feeling any and all emotions that come up this season. 
  • Don't ignore your feelings. It will be harder to stick to your plan if you do.
  •  The emotions you have or the mess ups you make don't mean that there's something wrong with you.
