Right around the corner it's going to be the busiest time of year for most families. With Thanksgiving and Christmas looming around the corner, its important to start thinking about what you are going to struggle with most. it could be one of your favorite desserts, high carb side dishes or those recipes where we take what could be some of the healthiest dishes and add extra butter and sugary syrups to impress family and friends with flavor. I can't imagine that I am the only one out there that struggles like this.
Why not prepare yourself early for these events? Start looking for alternatives and developing strategies now that will help you become successful and not succumb to the pressures that we face during those holiday get togethers. Advocare has provided structure for me and allowed me to overcome cravings and assisted me in making better choices. I am excited and looking forward to hitting the holidays head on. It's almost like I am getting ready for a fight that I know I am going to win. Preparation will take it that much further, and here are some other ideas.
- Take your time! . Try eating smaller portions over longer periods of time rather than a large portion all at once. This allows the digestive system to work progressively at breaking down your food and avoids a heavy demand that can make you feel tired and sluggish. - (Once you start on these products you will want to eat smaller meals throughout the day)
- Chat it up!. Take time to visit with friends and family. This is not only is good for relationships, but oxygen is the source of metabolism. Talking allows you to take in that needed oxygen for digestion and slows you down so you don’t eat too fast.
- Savor ever bite! Chewing stimulates the production of saliva, which is full of enzymes and stimulates digestive response. The more you chew the easier it is for the body to process and the more the digestive system is helped.
- Take this...not that! By choosing a salad or vegetables before going to the dessert table you will suppress the overwhelming desire to fill up on the sweets.
- Eat enzyme-rich foods. Foods naturally contain digestion-helping enzymes, but some have more than others. Raw salads, fruits and vegetables are great sources of enzymes.
- Take Advocare supplements! By incorporating even a few of these healthcare supplements to your holiday plan, you will find that your energy levels will be up (making it easier to play flag football with the family, rather than chilling by the appetizers) you'll make better choices, because you will even feel fuller and overall provide you the focus you need to stay on track.
Each of these options have worked for so many individuals who have already started on their journey, why not get on board today so that you too can get fit and love your life!!!
