I’m a huge fan of the holidays. I live for all the cooking and QT with loved ones. I love holiday commercials, too! Isn’t it funny how the mental version of the holidays differs from real life?
If your holiday season is anything like mine, it isn’t 100% effortless or filled with evergreens, egg nog, and elves. The truth is, we may have to navigate some conflict, like…
• A ton of tempting foods
• Black Friday Blowout Sale Shopping (I personally prefer online shopping to fighting for parking spots and sizes)
• Heated or passive/aggressive conversations and comments as a result of too much alcohol … or not enough!
• Guilt, regret or shame because your holiday didn’t play in person the way you wanted it to in your mind…
No matter what time of year it is, conflict shows up in our life. Rather than pretend this year is going to be different… Instead of shying away from it, or let it take you to the dark side… Why not take some time to learn how you can protect and respect yourself by controlling the only thing you can control… YOU.
Here is a full list of tips, recipes and tools you’ll need to take control and be that girl this holiday season… The one who makes positive changes and does the right thing, no matter what holiday curveballs are thrown at you… You can dodge them Matrix Style: When you commit, when you have a plan and when you set boundaries.
Now, I know practice makes perfect, so just in case you fall… I’ll be there to catch you. In today’s episode of CCtv I share 3 simple tips on how you can bounce back quickly and avoid gaining weight every time you overeat. These are the exact same tips I’ll be using, and do use every time I overeat (or drink.) It works, if you work it!

3 TIPS TO AVOID GAINING WEIGHT WHEN YOU OVEREAT
1) Exercise
Burn it to Earn it before you eat with sweaty cardio and weight training. Undo any damage done, with extra minutes (or more sessions) of sweaty cardio.
2) Cut all Starchy Carbs, Sugar, and Salt
Each gram of carbs (complex and simple) will retain up to 3 grams of water. Eliminating carbs and salt reduces water retention. Eating leans proteins, fruits, and veggies will help you pass the remnants of your too-much meal quickly and naturally. Plus, eating clean will help offset your nutritionally void indulgences.
3) Drink Nothing but Water
Water will also help you: pass foods fast, rehydrate, digest protein, and flush toxins.
I hope you have a Happy, Healthy Holiday!! I hope all of the tips I’ve been sharing with you are helping. I also made this full body at home workout for you – just in case your gym is closed. : ) It’s easy, yet effective and you can do this from the comfort of your home. If I can do this, YOU can do this!!
Practice makes perfect. It works, if you work it!

PS. If you’ve been overdoing it a lot lately, I highly recommend my Reset Cleanse. I developed it specifically to help me reverse weight gain and undo any metabolic damage done by celebrating a little too hard. This is a picture of my before and after results, recovering from the cake after my birthday party. : ) I lost 5 pounds. Learn more about my Reset Cleanse here.
