Holiday Fit Tip

Hello in "The Fitness Corner" ! For our group members celebrating the 4th of July holiday... here is a little tip to help you enjoy the holiday. Exercise over the holidays: Don't abandon your routine over the holidays. If you are tight for time, shorten your normal workout - but be sure to get it in. Eat before you go out: Going to a party on an empty stomach can make any and all food seem appetizing. Have a light snack before you go consisting of protein, carbohydrates, and fats. This will help remove the urge to overeat, avoid the buffet table. Avoid alcohol: Alcoholic drinks can contain from 100 -300 calories and may also cause you to overeat. As an alternative try non-alcoholic drinks or better yet...water! Be sensible with your choices, enjoy and have a safe and happy holiday! Yours in good health, Bob Cater www.getfitnow.ca
