You blink and the year is over. For those in the Can’t Weight for the Holiday Challenge that means the post weigh-ins are coming up soon, like the week after next. Come on in anytime between 6 AM and 6 PM, Monday through Friday, January 2 – 6th or 8 AM to 2 PM on Saturday, the 7th. Again, we please ask that you stay committed and come back in to weigh-in.
Our goal for the year was to reach the 4,000 cumulative pound mark and it’s going to be a tough number to reach. We’re currently at 3499.2 pounds so it looks as if I won’t have to shave my head this year! Whew!!
A couple of more healthy holiday tips:
- Studies show that folks who tend to sleep less also tend to put on more weight. So during the holiday rush, make sure you set enough time aside to get your rest. Don’t string out too many nights with just a few hours sleep and siestas are encouraged.
- Don’t let January 2nd bring you down. . .you know those post-holiday blues. Make an action plan to kick-off the New Year with a few goals and then set out to achieve them, starting with January 2nd. Consider it a new beginning.
Make one of those goals take you out of your comfort zone. Something you’ll really have to work for during the year like running in a 5K (3.1 miles) event next fall or learning how to play the piano.
Setting goals can help you plan your time and help you overcome any post-holiday blues you may experience.
Have a wonderful Christmas!
