For many of us the holiday season is a time for celebration. This usually means a lot of eating, especially of high fat foods. Most of us put off making any plans to start our healthy journey until our New Year's resolution. The problem is most of us don't follow through on our New Year's resolutions. So if we are not going to get started then, why not start now. 

There is probably no other time during the year that we are going to eat more high fat foods and gain more weight. Think about it, most of us are making New Year's resolutions because we ate and partied so much during the holiday season. So just think if we start watching what we eat during the holidays we will get the jump on the New Year, and may not even have to make a resolution! 

 If we are really serious about making healthier choices we are going to have to make changes eventually at the holiday season. Aren't we just putting off the inevitable if we wait until after the holidays? Think of how good you'll feel about yourself as you are making healthier choices then the people around you. It is amazing how easy this can be once you set your mind to it.

If you recognize you need to do something about your diet, if you convinced yourself that making healthier choices is your goal, and if you have prepared a plan of action, then you are ready to start. If you are ready, don't procrastinate any longer, start now and have a healthy holiday season.

"If you have health, you probably will be happy, and if you have health and happiness, you have all the wealth you need, even if it is not all you want."  ~Elbert Hubbard

Vicki,
Thanks to you I have started. The tips on keeping it in control have help a great deal. Even with the holiday partys, office snacks. I've been able to start early on the New Year promises and stay in control. By just watching more, Of how much I eat and some of what I eat. Walking everyday helps. even if it's just a lap around the block.
Thank again
Happy New Year
Tony
