Is it that time of the year, again? Summer is over, the fall is here, and winter is just around the corner. What does this mean for the fitness lover in all of us? We are all in the midst of the yearly battle where we fight fat all throughout the holidays. We are constantly bombarded with empty sugar-filled ?gifts? from our holiday work party, or our family and friends get-togethers. 

What is the health conscious and fitness fanatic to do with all the external pressures to fall into the holiday rut of eating out of control and munching on whatever is placed in front of us?   Sadly enough, we will always be bombarded by our own parents, friends and family with their never-ending requests to eat, eat, and eat some more! But you will survive, not gain any fat, and maybe even lose fat pounds, boost metabolism, lose fat fast, get flat abs and gain muscle  with my ?Dieters Holiday Survival Guide to Fat Loss?. I?m going to get you geared up the weight loss for women guide complete with the diet tips, fat burning exercises, and tools that you will need to fat and win the war on holiday weight gain.

Don?t get me wrong, I am not here to take the fun out of the holiday season. Because what would you prefer? At your next function to have your family and friends murmur ?Wow, did she put on some weight??, or comment ?She looks incredibly fit!? I am actually here to help you survive the holiday season without even gaining one pound, and maybe even slimming down a bit. And I have developed a plan that will allow you to enjoy the best of both worlds. My program will allow you to meet your fitness goals, without ostracizing you too much from your holiday cheer with your friends and family.  Just read on?I will show you how to build the best body ever for the New Year!

Your Workouts

Let?s get real! The holidays are surrounded with food, and tons of it. You will be forced and shoved in front of food, whether you are hungry or not. Therefore, you must exercise to balance off the increased caloric intake during this winter time. Some fitness gurus and so- called experts state that exercise is a choice, and not necessary. This is a flat out lie, and I am here to tell you that exercise is mandatory. But don?t think of exercise as a chore that you must squeeze in between Aunt Barbara?s Yule Log, and Uncle Steve?s spiced egg nog. Try viewing exercise as an ?I get to!? not as an ?I have to!? When you exercise, you are getting fresh blood and oxygen to every cell in your body. What a ?fat incinerating? treat! And in addition, this gift giving season, give yourself the greatest gift of all, the gift of exercise. Your heart, lungs, and muscles will all love you for it!

And digest this: Treat your workouts like important business meetings that you cannot be late to, call in ?sick? to, or cancel. And your workouts are with the most important person in the world-YOU! You must go ahead and pre-schedule your workouts as a priority meeting that is already blocked out.  Aim for at least four invigorating workouts per week. If you get to five in, then congratulations. And if you achieve six complete workouts a week, then hats off to you! And the great thing about exercising is that you get to choose what you love to do best, such as weight training, yoga workouts, pilates workouts, working out a home, using an exercise dvd?s , running for a marathon, running on a treadmill, or even doing one of my Fabulously Fit Moms exercise DVD?s from http://aseafood.fitnessmo1.hop.clickbank.net/

Plan Your Food In Advance

To survive this holiday season without gaining a pound, and even better yet, maybe even losing some weight, we need to understand ?planning our food?. I call my own meals and the order and content of them my ?Food Plan?, not a fat loss diet. I never have called it a ?diet?. Why? Because what are the first 3 letters of the word DIET? Yup! DIE! We all don?t want to DIE! We want to live, and live optimally and eat wisely in order to meet our fitness goals. So here are my fitness tips, nutritional tips for a fat blasting food plan.
It?s smart to plan your meals in advance and to follow a certain system of eating.   To master planed eating and stop eating accidentally (eating whatever comes in front of us) is when a true weight loss master is born. Thinking ahead per meal is one of the best weight loss strategies anyone can accomplish and master. And don?t get overwhelmed, its pretty easy.

Follow this tried and true food formula: one lean source of protein, combined with about 1⁄2 cup of whole grain carb, plus about one cup of a fibrous carb. This will be for your breakfast, and lunch, and then for dinner omit the complex carb.

Aim to ?eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince, and dinner like a pauper?, making sure to concentrate your amount of calories in the early part of the day. And if you know that you are going to a ?gut bomb? of a dinner party, and then prepare yourself by eating a healthy small meal before you go. This small healthy mini-meal will help curb your hunger and insure you don?t over eat on junk when you are at the party.

Sample food plan:

Breakfast-the biggest meal of my day

Mid morning snack is protein shake made with water

Lunch is still satisfying large in portion

Late afternoon snack is another protein shake with water

Dinner is a lean source of protein with my fibrous carb of choice (salad, broccoli, asparagus, etc)

Therefore aim to eat early, often, and taper off the calories as the day goes, and you will be able to still fit into that ?little black dress? on New Years!

To Drink or Not to Drink, This is the Question!  

?Tis the season to eat, drink, and be fat! This is my motto for all of those who are NOT on a program. Just leaving your body to the fate of the holidays and all the parties, you pretty much can be guaranteed gaining weight this season. Those of you who are on a food and exercise plan, our motto is ?Eat high protein, low carbs, drink water and protein shakes, and be merry! Your body will thank you by being more efficient, effective, burning fat faster, and having more energy to take upon this super busy season.

And now the topic of alcohol! Many of us are still confused on if alcohol is good for our or not. Here is the answer in plain presentation. Alcohol is empty calories, most of it sugar. Its not rocket science to see that when one consumes alcohol, those empty calories pile on quickly. In addition, when someone drinks, their appetites tend to increase, therefore the effects of drinking quantify. Once scientific study proved that one drinks a cocktail at dinner, they consume up to 600 calories more, than if they did not have a drink.

I am not here to tell you not to loosen up with a cold one, and be a social stiff all holiday season. But drink in moderation. And if you don?t want to seen unsocial, simply take a glass of wine or champagne that is offered, take part in the toast, and sip socially, only to leave most of that ?sugar? in the glass! And here is another holiday tip: instead of a fully loaded drink, opt for a ?wine spritzer? where it?s half the amount of wine that is diluted with a splash of soda water. Add a twist of lemon, and you have slashed your calories in half. And if you are asking yourself ?what are the best supplements for fat loss? then simply visit my website at http://aseafood.fitnessmo1.hop.clickbank.net/ for more information on proper supplementation.

This Season, Let Your Body is a Walking Advertisement of Your Health

Your holiday office party is coming up very soon, as well as your family get together to celebrate the season. One of your first questions is likely going to be ?What am I going to wear?? If your diet and exercise plan is in order, then what you wear really doesn?t matter. This is because your body can?t lie! It will show everyone if you have been ?cheating? on your food plan, or if you have been putting yourself back on your to do list, and making eating right and exercising priority on your list.

I remember one holiday season when I was around 200 pounds (and maybe can you too!) when I would wear big black baggy clothes, big hair and tons of makeup to try and ?mask? me being over weight. Now this holiday season, I am celebrating the fact that I have finally gotten my weight under control.  Now I pride myself in being able to not hide my body, but show off my physique, and your body is your biggest advertisement on whether you are living optimally, or not. It?s your choice, so choose wisely!

    Visitor Ratings: There was, as usual, a crowd of folk about the door, but none that Rip recollected. The very character of the people seemed changed. There was a busy, bustling, disputatious tone about it, instead of the accustomed phlegm and drowsy tranquillity. He looked in vain for the sage Nicholas Vedder, with his broad face, double chin, and fair long pipe, uttering clouds of tobacco-smoke instead of idle speeches; or Van Bummel, the schoolmaster, doling forth the contents of an ancient newspaper. In place of these, a lean, bilious-looking fellow, with his pockets full of hand-bills, was haranguing vehemently about rights of citizens ¡P elections-members of congress-liberty-Bunker's Hill-heroes of seventy-six-and other words, which were a perfect Babylonish jargon to the bewildered Van Winkle. The appearance of Rip, with his long grizzled beard, his rusty fowling-piece, his uncouth dress, and an army of women and children at his heels, soon attracted the attention of the tavern-politicians. They crowded round him, eying him from head to foot with great curiosity. The orator bustled up to him, and, drawing him partly aside, inquired "on which side he voted?" Rip stared in vacant stupidity. Another short but busy little fellow pulled him by the arm, and, rising on tiptoe, inquired in his ear, "Whether he was Federal or Democrat?" Rip was equally at a loss to comprehend the question; when a knowing, self-important old gentleman, in a sharp cocked hat, made his way through the crowd, putting them to the right and left with his elbows as he passed, and planting himself before Van Winkle, with one arm akimbo, the other resting on his cane, his keen eyes and sharp hat penetrating, as it were, into his very soul, demanded in an austere tone, "what brought him to the election with a gun on his shoulder, and a mob at his heels, and whether he meant to breed a riot in the village?"-"Alas! gentlemen," cried Rip, somewhat dismayed, "I am a poor quiet man, a native of the place, and a loyal subject of the king, God bless him!" Here a general shout burst from the bystanders-"A tory! a tory! a spy! a refugee! hustle him! away with him!" It was with great difficulty that the self-important man in the cocked hat restored order; and, having assumed a tenfold austerity of brow, demanded again of the unknown culprit what he came there for, and whom he was seeking? The poor man humbly assured him that he meant no harm, but merely came there in search of some of his neighbors, who used to keep about the tavern. "Well-who are they?--name them." Rip bethought himself a moment, and inquired, "Where's Nicholas Vedder?" There was a silence for a little while, when an old man replied, in a thin, piping voice: "Nicholas Vedder! why, he is dead and gone these eighteen years! There was a wooden tombstone in the churchyard that used to tell all about him, but that's rotten and gone too." "Where's Brom Dutcher?" "Oh, he went off to the army in the beginning of the war; some say he was killed at the storming of Stony Point-others say he was drowned in a squall at the foot of Antony's Nose. I don't know-he never came back again."
