A couple days late but THANK YOU for the birthday wishes. π₯π§ Since it is the holiday π season, I figured it'd be a good time to touch on the subject of celebrations & making progress when everyone stresses about "staying on track".
.
Truth of the matter is that it's not necessarily about staying on track, but being flexible enough to enjoy this time while being mindful of your choices and realizing that a few indulgent events will only set you back as much as you let them.
.
Tips to consider:
.
Focus on what matters: the company & experience. Enjoy a few foods π₯§ that you only get during this time of year and be mindful of the LOVE that went into preparing it.
.
Don't restrict so that you're primed to bend and break once you're around food. Plan your day so you're getting plenty of protein since holiday meals tend to be carb & fat heavy.
.
If you track π macros, consider lessening the pressure of playing Tetris when there'll be a lot of social events and focus on calories ONLY while prioritizing π protein.
.
If you overdid it, don’t compensate with endless cardio & restricting food. Look at the big picture: one meal is a tiny fraction of the meals you'll eat that week. Move on with your routine and know that you can't change what's been done, but you can set yourself up for success NOW.
.
You have one life to live and it's best lived in an equilibrium that includes occasional treats & social events. π₯ It's a hard mind game to get out of when society demonizes some foods. Silence the noise. The gym & macros will ALWAYS be there but the people & experiences in life won’t. ❤️ Also...if you’re in southwest FL, I can highly recommend Island GF Bakery in Sarasota - these gluten free cupcakes
