Steps to Lose Weight Over Christmas

Losing weight over Christmas can be easier than you thought. Between the holiday parties and tons of eating constantly you may think it would be hard to achieve success in your weight loss goals but you have to remain committed. Never tell yourself that you "don't have time to work out". You always have time because you have to make your time. When at your Christmas events you must: make smart alcohol choices, have good portion control and absolutely must exercise in between your holiday parties.

No alcohol is good unless it is a glass of wine a day. There are, however, smarter choices to drink at your Christmas parties. One good example of a certain alcoholic beverage being better than another is wine or any kind of spritzers. These still have calories but not as much as beer or a cocktail with a lot of calories. It is better to have water with a lime or lemon instead but if you must have a drink a glass of wine it is fine as long as you do not overdo it.

A huge issue that is usually the hardest to deal with during Christmas is portion control. When snacking before the big meal why not try grabbing a handful of nuts or chips instead of snacking nonstop before you even get to the meal. Most of the time people get full off the snacks in front of them and lose their appetite for the meal, when the meal is healthier than all of that snacking. Make sure you always take a plate full and no more. One pastry or roll is okay but no more than that, keep in mind everything is okay in moderation.

Make sure you know that just because it is the holidays does not mean you should not be working out, it means you should be working out much harder. Working out should be more than just going to the gym. A few options are: going on a walk after dinner, going shopping (all that walking does wonders on your body and we all need to shop for Christmas this time of year) and lastly park a half a mile away from the mall, that little bit each time you go can help significantly this time of year.

You need to focus on those little extra things you do to exercise; a lot of little workouts are just as good as one big workout. Like I stated before it just takes making smart alcohol choices, portion control and a lot of exercise between all your holiday parties and events. Remember, it is not a diet, it is a lifestyle change. You are the only person that can change yourself, no one else can do it, so you must have the self motivation it takes to lose weight over the holidays.
