Twitter topic of the day: Holidays, weekends & exercising

This post is my twitter daily tips / topic of the day. Follow me on Twitter @ezhomefitness

My #questionoftheday is are you on holiday or using the holiday or weekend or other excuse to take off from your diet & exercise program?

With the holiday season coming upon us, now is the time to buckle down on your diet & exercise program! If you allow yourself to continue to slack off & not establish good new habits then you know what's going to happen come the holidays right? You're going to eat all that good holiday cooking, gain weight, feel guilty & miserable at the weight gain & make a new year's resolution. Then you know what happens after that New Year's resolution right? You make a committment that you keep for about 2 weeks before the cycle begins all over again and another year of fat & excuses rolls on. NOW is the time to make that committment to yourself. BEFORE the holiday season starts & all your ready made excuses start. NOW is the time to learn what foods are good for you to eat so you can eat well during the holidays and not gain weight. NOW is the time to learn discipline yourself into also exercising consistently so that if you do eat more holiday food, you can work it off. You have to start sometime and the truth is that there will always be some ready made EXCUSE for you not to begin. Stop the excuses! Time is ticking. The time is right to discipline yourself before the holidays. There's enough time to build good habits before then. Don't wait until the holidays are upon you to try to start because you know that hasn't worked out for you before. You CAN make it through the holidays without weight gain and you CAN even make progress with your weight loss & fitness goals.
