Most people have a change of routine over the festive season period.  Whether this includes some holiday time for you, or just celebration over the holidays it tends to include a change in eating and exercising patterns.

I recently read in a study published in Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise that runners need to reach a certain mileage per week to lose weight after any exercise ‘hibernation’.  According to this study, on average, women who resumed running after a break (the length did not matter) started losing the weight gained during the break only after hitting the 50km per week jogging mark.  Running less than this, actually caused weight gain; either from muscle build-up or from eating more for the added activity.

This led me to realise that apart from slacking on the exercise routine, most people tend to slack a little on checking what you eat over the festive season.  And then it seems quite difficult to find your old routine back again.  It is time to just take stock of where you are at, and what you want to achieve again and to then start building towards this.

One easy thing to start with is to have a healthy breakfast.  Herbalife has an excellent Healthy Breakfast programme that includes a delicious diet shake to get your day on track.  With essential vitamins and minerals, healthy soy protein and low GI carbohydrates, this shake not only energises you, but also helps to keep your blood sugar levels more stable.  It also includes the Herbal Aloe Concentrate that helps to soothe and support your digestive system back into routine.

If you want to go a step up and focus strongly on weight loss, the Herbalife Quickstart program is the ideal choice.  The weight loss program includes replacing two meals a day with a delicious Herbalife shake, with your third meal being a healthy food meal.  This program promises quick and effective weight loss – guaranteed (the products carry a 30-day money back guarantee to ensure your satisfaction).

If neither of these sounds like what you need, contact me for a personalised healthy diet eating plan and Herbalife product suggestions.  Herbalife prices are also available on request.
