Healthy Holiday Survival Guide
Schedule everything, plan ahead!
It's 10 am, I'm sitting here drinking my water with lemon (I just sucked back 24 oz!!) freezing my butt off!!!
I DO NOT LIKE THE COLD!!!!
Remember when I said I try and stay active with my son on the weekends by running 5k's together? This is us 2 weekends ago in a mud run... FREEZING but FUN!
I moved from a very warm place, to a place that I consider to have an AMAZING, but way-to-short, summer. I'm still adjusting.
One thing that I've found helps me get up and going when It's cold and cloudy is LOUD MUSIC. Currently, I've got the song, "Gangham Style" BLASTING through my entire house. I'm pretty sure It's helping! :)
I made it through the weekend and stuck to my healthy meal plan PHEW!!!!!
But, remember a couple posts ago when I said, "I didn't feel that hungry" Well...
THIS WEEKEND I WAS HUNGRY!!!
But again, like most things, It was my own fault. I stayed up WAYYYYY to late! I can't expect my body to be fine on 6 small meals a day if I'm awake and moving for 20 hours! :)
So, my goal for this next weekend is to get to bed earlier!
Here's how I made it through the weekend without totally blowing my diet.
planning!!!!
Every Friday night, I try and look ahead to the weekend and figure out what things will make it hard for me to stick to my healthy eating and/or workout schedule, ie, going out with friends, heading out of town, my sister bringing my favorite cookies over... etc. Then I make a plan to get through it. (I gave the cookies to a friend and told her I made them, sorry sis!)
During the week I do the same. Every Monday morning, I sit down and make my schedule. I write down what I'm eating for my 6 meals each day, what I'm making my family for dinner each night, and when I will do my workouts. I find that if I know what's going on, I'm way less stressed out!
I'm totally Old school, and get some sort of crazy satisfaction from writing things down and crossing them off when I do them, so I have a "planner" :) I've tried to go digital a million times but I always go back to my paper planner!
Part of planning ahead, maybe the MOST IMPORTANT PART when it comes to sticking with a healthy meal plan is
HAVING YOU'RE MEALS PREPARED AHEAD OF TIME AND READY TO GO!
I used to always think I'd have time to throw something together, I don't, stuff always comes up and I find myself trapped at a kids basketball game STARVING, with nothing healthy on-hand.
I FINALLY learned, Prepare your meals in advance, and bring food with you everywhere!
If it helps, go out and buy a cute cooler, I found this cooler bag at Fred Mayer. Here's a list of some of the stuff I fill mine with:
-turkey meat balls
-turkey lunch meat
-fruit
-Green salads
-imitation crab meat (I LOVE IT, don't judge me)
-homemade protein bars
-chia seed pudding
-protein pancakes
This weekend, I ran my son to his soccer game, but it got rained out so we decided to go shopping instead, we ended up being gone all day. Luckily, I had a cooler full of all my food in the car, Had I not thrown it in, we'd have ended up at the Wendy's drive through, (LOVE LOVE LOVE their curly fries)
PLAN AHEAD! NOW!
