Hows your week of portion control and food selection going this week?
- Has it been plenty of fruit and vegetables, white meats, oily fish, good carbs, healthy nut selections and whole grains in relation to your supermarket shop?
2 or has it been no fruit and vegetables, white meats and fish but heavily coated with batter and butter, has it been white flour products, and have there been plenty of treats thrown in, even boxes of sweets thrown in?
3 and how is your alcohol intake? Are you thoroughly taking advantage of the mega deals on alcohol in the supermarket or do you drink just once a week and when you do, the volume is quite light?
These three points will provide big clues in the way you look and feel.
Whether your clothes are fitting a little better this week, or are they getting a little tighter again? Your food selections have the answer!
Have you plenty of energy and you have already put 3-4 workouts in already this week?
Or have you wrote off another week and have consigned yourself to just “treading water” for the next 8 weeks. One thing’s for sure, if you do try to somehow tread water, you are definitely destined to put on weight before Christmas, no matter HOW many baggy jumpers and black clothes you wear!!!!
So to avoid all of this happening, try making the right choices NOW you will probably do anyway in January, and avoid all the pain you were going to have then!!!
Nobody I know wants to feel sluggish and horrible now and up to Christmas should be a time of celebration and fun, being in your best shape and having compliments, and not of wearing baggy dark jumpers to hide all the abuse you have given your body all year in food and exercise terms, and everyone asking you “have you put on weight”!!!
Lets get it together!
