You are devouring your second plate for lunch. Before you finish it, you plan to overwhelm yourself with a cool dessert waiting in the freezer of your aunt's house. Your friend invites you to have dinner at his place and because you know that it's always a good meal when it's prepared by his mom, you affirmed by replying to his sms.
You continue to eat and suddenly you
remember that you're going to have dinner with your family. You're mother is
preparing all of her specialities because of the Christmas Season. You plan to
eat dinner twice so as not to dissappoint any of the parties.
At you friend's house, you ate so
much as if there was no tomorrow. At home, you ate just as much, as if it was
the first round of dinner for the night. You were so fed up, you felt like
puking. It didn't happen anyway but you felt so sleepy after the meal- all you
wanted to do was retreat to your room and get some sleep. What a pig.
Does this story sound familiar to
you? Maybe not, but are there similarities in the story that you find in your
holiday vacation? I believe most of us have been eating so much during the
holidays. We can't blame ourselves because it's that time of the year when the
best dishes of mom, your aunt or even your friend's relatives are served on the
table.
We joyfully eat these dishes. There's
no problem with that but in the next few weeks, you begin to feel the agony
that your desire to delight yourself with food has resulted. You grow big and
you torment yourself for having been such a pig weeks back.
Unfortunately, the rants and crying
won't slim you down. The only solution to this matter is to perspire. What's
the easiest and fastest way to perspire? Exercise.
Whether you like it or not, you will
not slim down or get the body you always wanted to have since last year if you
won't exercise everyday starting today. And oh, before I forget, couple your
exercise with a balanced diet. Nothing's gonna happen if you exercise without
controlling your eating habits.
So put your device down. Go offline.
Suit up your cycling and rubber shoes. It's time to perspire, time to get rid
of the holiday guilt.
