| Fit2Feast Challenge: Kick off the holiday season the healthy way by completing at least 10 minutes of exercise each day November 1-26 (photo by LivligaHome). |
Halloween seems to start the feeding frenzy of the holidays for all
of us. Our good habits go out the window and our waistlines increase. At a
certain point many of us stop stepping on the scale and hold on to the hope of
the New Year. We check out mentally. But wait a minute; do we really want to
end the year this way…again?
There is a way around this black hole to our healthy lifestyle. It
does require hanging in there and being present. We do have to recognize the
choice is ours. And no, I am not talking about giving up anything or skipping
Thanksgiving. I am talking about choosing to continue to live our healthy
lifestyle all the way through the holidays. Old habits die hard, believe me, I
know. If we hang in there together we can start a new trend this holiday
season.
The only way I know to beat an old unhealthy habit is to
deliberately do something new. It also has to be fun. And if it involves having
fun and doing it with others chances are we will succeed. Here is the pitch:
Why not join in a challenge?
SparkPeople has put out a challenge to have all of us to exercise
everyday for the month of November for at least 10 minutes a day. How great is
this?! By joining the challenge it will help us stay focused, do something good
for ourselves instead of something not so good and we will really feel we have
earned our Thanksgiving dinner by the time it rolls around.
Here are
the challenge specifics: It's
all about keeping your priorities front and center--and we're here to help you
do just that with a month-long consistency challenge.
Kick off the holiday season the healthy way by
completing at least 10 minutes of exercise each day from November 1st to November
26th (the day before Thanksgiving). For bonus points, try to
squeeze in 10 minutes on Thanksgiving Day, too! The best part? We'll be there
to support you along the way. Each day of the challenge, you can post to Facebook, Twitter, or Pinterest by using the hashtag #Fit2Feast to stay accountable and let us
know how you're doing. Then, we'll serve up tips and encouragement to keep you
headed in the right direction!
Are you with me?! #TeamLivliga is in. Come join in the challenge,
have some fun and help the rest of us stay accountable too. Here’s to all of us
having a Happy and Healthier Holiday Season!
Enjoy! And Live Vibrant!
