Keep Fitness Off Your New Year's Resolution List
Here's how:
* Don't wait. Leave the December binge/January purge cycle behind. If you tend to blow off moderation in favor of "treating" yourself and justifying poor choices, it's time to reframe your approach. Vow to conquer the holidays in healthy ways. Start by taking the initiative to cook holiday meals so you can prepare healthy options, and during the party circuit, don't succumb to the pressure to indulge. "Learn to say no thank you," says Tom Nikkola, director of nutrition and weight management for Life Time Fitness. "Not 'No thank you, I'm on a diet,' or 'No thank you, I'm trying to stick to my nutrition plan,' because friends might give you a hard time and egg you on."
