Back on track


Chandi Schwab
After the holidays it can be difficult to get back on track and into our normal routines. If we haven't been eating well it is hard to get back into a balanced eating routine. Sometimes when we have been eating large quantities of fattening or high sugar foods it is easier for us to feel like not eating at all the next morning all the way until that evening. At that point we find ourselves starving again and wanting to delve back into those sugary, fattening foods. This is a hard cycle to get out of. The best way to get out of it is by making sure that we jump into our normal routine right away first thing in the morning. Wake up, drink a large glass of water, Work out, (if that is the time you have set aside for it), and then choose your first healthy meal to start your day out. Like oatmeal, smoothie, eggs with wheat toast,fruit and yogurt, etc... keep your metabolism rolling with 5 other small healthy meals throughout your day. This will keep you energized and satisfied. For those of you that are doing the 8 week challenge don't feel discouraged. A lot can be accomplished in one month. Scott and I are planning on starting a cleanse the first of the year.If any of you are interested in joining us let me know. Hope you all are enjoying the holidays! Keep up the great work!
