Holiday Challenges.
So I have come to realize, it isn't just the tasty foods lying around EVERYWHERE this time of year, the office, the parties etc. I've gotten pretty decent at making good food choices over this past year. No, It is also a time challenge to get my exercise in regularly and a ramped up stress thing that may lead us towards "comfort eating"
So my cardio was way down last week. Still gOt 20 miles, but that is pretty low comparatively.HERE IS WHAT I HAVE LEARNED: For me, exercise reduces stress far more than chowing down. comfort eating will just lead to increased anxiety any way! So I am making it a point to bust out a set of pushups instead of a donut grab. Walk a block instead of thirds on pizza. Make no mistake. I WILL ENJOY HOLIDAY TREATS. In moderation and in design to balance (allowance) for my RDI. Weight holding steady in the 163 to 164 range, and I am diggin' that!
