Get Healthy for the Holidays!

Did you know the average American gains EIGHT POUNDS from Thanksgiving through the New Year? Holiday gatherings are excuses for overindulgence and gluttony. At the same time, most people find themselves slacking on their exercise programs. The result? Extra pounds.

How “Healthy for the Holidays” Can Help
We will help you through the season. Healthy for the Holidays is an online group that will help you lose or maintain weight (depending on your goal), through the holidays. Our aim is to help you enjoy the holidays without the guilt of gaining weight or falling off your current weight loss program. The keys to success are realistic goal setting and having a supportive community to help. We’ll provide both.

Focus on the Giving, Not on the Stuffing
How can Alice help? “I’m just a normal person with tons of demands on my time and I walk my talk,” she says. “On a daily basis I have a bad case of the ‘I don’t wannas’ and I want to show other people they can work through their exercise temper tantrums, too.”

Alice has successfully made it through the last three holidays without gaining a single pound. She will help you by providing daily tips and support so that you will be successful in achieving your weight loss goals through the holidays.

“I use the holiday season as a time to focus on what I can give rather than a time to stuff myself. By refocusing my thinking by doing things like donating my time to charities, I get in the spirit of the season rather than the food and drinks that most festivities are centered around.”
