10 ways to keep fitness plan on track
The average American basically hibernates during the cold winter months. We eat more, \
exercise less and generally become increasingly out of shape.
<br>
<br>"Winter is a challenging time of year for those who are trying to maintain \
healthy habits such as working out and eating low-fat, low-calorie foods," says Jeff \
Zwiefel, president, Health Enhancement Division of Life Time Fitness. <br>
<br>But complete deprivation is not the answer. "Life is meant to be enjoyed," \
Zwiefel says. "At Life Time, we think it's possible to balance healthy habits with \
enjoying special gatherings and foods. We encourage balance and moderation in all \
areas of your life," he says. <br>
<br>Here are 10 great tips, courtesy of Zwiefel, for staying fit and eating well all \
winter long. <br>
<br>1) Drink lots of water throughout the day. It suppresses the appetite and is \
something everyone should do year round. <br>
<br>2) If you're going to an evening party, don't starve yourself all day. It's a \
good idea to eat a smaller lunch than usual, but if you are starving by the time you \
arrive, you're more likely to make high-fat, high-calorie choices when you're at the \
buffet or table. <br>
<br>3) Snack on fruits, vegetables and high-fiber foods whenever possible. Dried \
fruits are healthy and a good alternative to many sweet snacks such as cookies and \
candy. <br>
<br>4) Limit alcohol consumption. Remember that alcohol contains almost as many \
calories per gram as fat. Alternate alcoholic drinks with water or club soda while \
you're at a party. <br>
<br>5) At a party, eat healthy foods first. Use a small plate so you can't load up as \
easily, or have a friend who has healthy eating habits make up a plate for you.
<br>
<br>6) Enjoy the outdoors as much as possible: bundle up and take the dog for a walk, \
and try skating or sledding; squeeze 10-minute walks into your schedule. Any extra \
activity helps. <br>
<br>7) Enlist the help of a family member or friend to help keep you on track with \
healthy habits. Choose someone who can provide not only encouragement, but a good \
example as well. <br>
<br>8) Acknowledge that you're probably going to miss some workouts from time to time \
and plan now to work around it. Schedule different times or substitute another \
activity, even if it's at home. <br>
<br>9) When you attend events or parties where there is a lot of food, leave at a \
reasonable hour. In addition to helping you get enough sleep, you'll also be \
removing yourself from the temptation to continue eating unnecessary calories. <br>
<br>10) Remember that balance, variety and moderation apply to celebrations as well \
as to most other things in life, so don't be too hard on yourself if you slip up. \
Keep your good intentions, spend time with family and friends and enjoy life! <br>
