Holiday Time Can Be the Right Time for Losing Weight, Experts Say
During the holidays, alcohol-related accidents reportedly increase, as do weights and waistlines. Most people experience their lowest weight and best body composition around September each year, but the positive effects are gone by New Year’s. Are we doomed to fall into this vicious cycle?
No, say boomer generation health experts Dian Griesel, Ph.D., and Tom Griesel, authors of the new book TurboCharged: Accelerate Your Fat Burning Metabolism, Get Lean Fast and Leave Diet and Exercise Rules in the Dust (April 2011, BSH). “It is very possible to survive and thrive during the holiday season if you recognize the pitfalls and plan ahead,” they claim. “You need a goal: A goal that allows you to participate without all the collateral damage that usually occurs.”
“Many people set a goal in September to start saving money for Christmas presents and most are successful,” says Dian. Why? “Because they have a goal and a plan! You can do the same thing to stay in shape or even better, improve your body and health.”
“The first step is getting over your skepticism and contemplating the possibilities and the benefits,” adds Tom. “You just need to establish your goal and let everyone know what it is. You’ll be surprised at how many people think it is a great idea. Those that don’t are allowed to get fat and are not your concern. Post a copy of your goal on your refrigerator, bathroom mirror, computer screen and anyplace else that will allow you to see it often. This will serve as a constant reminder to both your conscious and subconscious mind. The results of taking just this one step will amaze you. Do not be afraid of setting a goal that is a bit of a stretch. Shoot for the moon and even if you miss, you will still end up out there with the stars.”
