Recognize this quote? Chevy Chase's National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation is an 'oldie-but-a-goodie' Christmas movie! Greg and I watch it every year without fail. It's become, let's say, a deep rooted tradition in our home. It's holiday movies like these that touch our hearts and make us laugh 'til we cry. I think we can all agree that our world needs a little more laughter, especially given the crazy year it has been.

The holidays are a time to bring that extra bit of joy and cheer to the lives of those we love. It's also a time, as a Health & Wellness Coach, that clients flock to me either trying to prevent, or recover from, holiday weight gain.

So I've come up with a few Healthy Holiday solutions for you all, to avoid the 'battle of the holiday bulge' altogether. Our first stop? Cleaning up those Christmas indulgences with my Holiday Recipe E-Book!

I want to help you make your holidays as delicious and nutritious as possible! The Holiday Recipe E-Book is a collection of traditional holiday eats, treats and ethnic extras that are full of flavor yet easy on your waistline: Eggnog French Toast, Cran-Pecan Brussels, Sugar Cookie Bites and more! This recipe e-book has a little bit of everything for everyone!

There is exactly five weeks left of 2020. Most people wait until January to resolve to work on themselves; to set intentions to change something in their lives that will get them closer to their goals.

But why do we need to wait until then? What is it about January that all of a sudden makes us think we will be that much more organized, stronger, disciplined, focused, etc?

We need to start the change process RIGHT NOW.

And really...we don't have many excuses. It's not like we have all these extra-curricular’s, holiday parties or social gatherings that will get in the way. This is most certainly a time where, as a Coach, I say "no excuses".

What will YOU change over the next five weeks that will get you closer to your goal; to achieve a positive result?

The time is going to pass anyway. Let's get ahead of ourselves and start working towards success RIGHT NOW. Because if nothing changes, nothing changes right?

Make the decision to commit TODAY. Resolve right now. Not tomorrow. Now December 1st. Not January 1st (because pssst...we will still be in this pandemic). T-O-D-A-Y.

And if you need to stay accountable to your goals, reach out!
