TWELVE DAYS 'TIL

CHRISTMAS

Tuesday, 13 December 2011

So have you gotten those six

geese-a-laying yet? LOL.

Oh, who doesn't love that classic holiday song,The

Twelve Days Of Christmas? And wouldn't you

know it? Today is December 13th and oh yes, count

'em, that means there're only twelve days 'til

Christmas. I can't believe it. (Where has the

year gone?)

With all of the many things

you have going on for the next twelve days, I'm asking

you to please...don't forget about YOU!

I'm sure that, like me, most of you have been going gung

ho-ho-ho getting ready for the biggest holiday

of the year. Most of your homes are decorated by now,

aren't they? (I know mine is!) Is there a beautiful

Christmas tree in your living room? Is there a big

wreath on the front door and twinkle lights hanging

from your roof? Some of your are probably still

writing and mailing your Christmas cards. (I love

getting Christmas cards the old-fashioned way, via

snail mail.) Is all of your Christmas shopping done?

And maybe you have a big holiday party you're still

making plans for. Oh, just so much to do, so much to

do.

But with all of the many things you have going on for

the next twelve days, I'm asking you to please...don't

forget about YOU! Too

many people use this hectic holiday season as an

excuse for not paying close attention to their eating

habits and getting in their workouts. But hey, these

busy days may seem

like a good excuse for you to go off program

but...they're not!

I mean, think how good you'll feel when

Christmas morning arrives, knowing you stayed true to

your weight-loss program...all through the holidays.

Honestly, what better way to show yourself that you can do

it than

when you're so busy but still making time to get your

workouts in and say

no to all of the holiday food temptations coming your

way?

Twelve days 'til

Christmas...that means twelve

hours of workouts and twelve

days of meal-planning.

Twelve days 'til Christmas...that means twelve

hours of workouts and twelve

days of meal-planning. And by staying on

track, that means twelve days of compliments you'll

be able to give yourself for being true to you and

your goal!

Look, you can either gain or lose

weight in these twelve days 'til Christmas. So, which

is it going to be? If you stay true to your

weight-loss program, you'll see a weight-loss and not

a weight-gain

by the time Santa arrives. And oh yes, when you see

those numbers on your scale go down, then I say you

would have definitely earned those...five golden

rings!

Love,
