Holiday Weight Loss Plan
Yes, it's officially that time of year. I'll admit that around Halloween I usually throw healthy eating out the window and figure I'll worry about that in January when my holiday eating has caused me to gain 5 pounds and forced me into the standard shame spiral of cliched New Years resolutions.

Sorry, this isn't the part where I tell you that this holiday season, I'm going to lose weight. I'm a classic case of over-committing to things I can't finish, and I don't want to do that. It's not the way I'm going to be successful at getting back to my happy fitness place...or stay there for that matter.

So, my holiday weight loss plan? Don't gain. That's it. Just get through the holiday season of temptation and deliciousness without gaining. How am I going to do this? By adding my next habit into my repertoire: work out 5 days a week (that and try to keep things in check in those non-holiday situations...just because clients like to send us donuts every day in the month of December doesn't mean I should eat them).

Workout Tip
Want to work out more? I like starting small. Getting in to the habit of working out is a lot easier if the activities don't seem so intimidating. It's how I started training for a marathon and it's how I'm going to rehabilitate my knee. 20 minutes on the spin bike? Bring it!
