Holiday struggles?Yes, we all get them. Me I love desserts and baking and anything chocolate. My mom made the best cookies. I will certainly miss her baking, she was so good at it. But I am going to try to live up to her legacy.I do eat the cookies and chocolates, the key is not overdoing it, still eat 4-5 times a day even when you have the dessert. So often we eat the dessert and then skip breakfast or some other meal and that actually does more harm than good. I also learned to make healthier versions of the things I love and but still have the occasionally treats of course without going overboard.I also keep moving my body EVERYDAY.Sure, it may sound easy and it is easy, after a while you just get used to it and it becomes a part of your daily habits and routine.Don't let the holidays derail your progress or be an excuse to even start your health and fitness journey.How to stay on track:1. Still get in your workouts.2. Don't go to a holiday celebration hungry.3. Save your treats.4. Make healthier versions of the food you love.5. Don't go back for seconds.6. Use smaller plates.7. Leave the leftovers or give them away.8. Drink your water.Enjoy the moments, make the memories. That's what we should focus on during the holidays.Follow me on Facebook or Instagramhttps://www.facebook.com/AmieeKBBC/ https://www.instagram.com/amieek_bbc/Book RecommendationsLose Weight Like Crazy - Autumn Calabrese (today's book)Get Out Of Your Own Way - Dave HollisGirl Wash Your Face - Rachel HollisGirl Stop Apologizing - Rachel HollisAtomic Habits - James ClearFierce, Free, and Full of Fire - Jen HatmakerIt is ok, not to be ok - Megan DivineEverything is Figureoutable - Marie ForleoMeditation Apps:CalmAuraHeadspaceStop, Breathe & ThinkPodcasts:Rise Together PodcastThe Marie Forleo Podcasttiny leaps, big changesFor the LoveDaily BoostUnlocking Us with Brene Brown
