How Yours Truly Keeps Fit for the 4th

I betting that you have plans to celebrate this 4th of July Weekend.  Since I don’t want you to fall off the wagon, I wanted to share 3 of my personal quick tips with you to ensure you enjoy all the festivities.

There are literally thousands of holiday weekend survival tips being shared right now but the best advice I can give you is that it is never just One Weekend that sabotages your results.

Rather – it is how you spend your time before and AFTER that matters most.

Here are 3 questions to ask yourself to help keep you on track this weekend:

1. When does your holiday weekend start?

Knowing this will allow you to make good choices up to this point. No need to grab a handful of m&ms at work when you know you will be enjoying a picnic tomorrow.

My holiday weekend starts with my first  (and possibly only) cookout of the weekend.

2. What will you watch out for?

Are there certain foods or drinks that you consider to be your  weakness?  How will you manage them?

Put a limit, make a healthier version or avoid altogether?

I absolutely love potato chips, cookies and M & M’s.  Since there aren’t any real healthy versions of these, I will limit my serving of these and keep my distance so to not eat handfuls out of the bag!

3. When does your holiday weekend end?

This is the most important question to answer. Knowing when it is time to Get Back On Track is what will prevent your choices from completely sabotaging your results.

My Holiday Weekend Ends when I leave the last cookout of the weekend.  I will not take home any leftovers and go for a nice evening walk when I get home.

Do something to signify you are done celebrating and ready to get Back on Track and you will stay on the path to fast fat loss results!

Have fun and safe 4th of July Weekend!

Your friend and trainer,
