Dang holidays! They came and stole all my calories away with all the delicious meals, candies, dips, and cheese balls. Then, on top of that, I had zero desire to workout. I feel so ashamed and just plain yucky.
Alright, so this is the reality for most people when they are trying to lose and maintain weight loss. I have yet to master the holidays. My new year's resolution (one of many) is to learn how to control and manage what I eat during any holiday.
I will say it is very tough. Holidays wouldn't be so bad if all the parties and get togethers were hosted at my house with my own healthy menus planned out. Unfortunately, they weren't this year and so I went out to these different places. I'm not saying I ate everything in sight and had more than I should. It's just the type of food I ate was just not healthy. The main ingredient in most of what I had was CHEESE. Now, I'm a cheesehead. I love it but over the holidays I had too much of it. So, my second new year's resolution is to cut out dairy products for about 2 weeks and then slowly add them back in and we'll see how my flabby belly looks then.
Also, a new year's resolution of mine is to begin doing yoga in the morning before work. I already bought a dvd of yoga and a yoga mat. I tried out the dvd today and it was pretty good. I love how yoga makes me get real quiet and relaxed. It's like the only thing I'm focusing on is my body. I'm asking myself, Can I hold this pose a little longer to increase my stretch? I've heard so many good things about yoga, so I thought I would give it a whirl. Plus, I needed something different to do in my workout routine.
Well, I know that 2010 will be a new year with changes to go along with it....We'll just have to see where the river takes us
