Most of these tips are also applicable even outside the Yule season because there are fiestas that are also as early as January and all throughout the year.

According to Samantha Clayton,
Herbalife’s director of worldwide fitness and education, it’s all about
minimizing impact. “No matter where you are on your personal wellness journey,
think twice before over-indulging during the next few weeks. My advice is to,
at the very least, try to break even and maintain your weight this holiday
season. It’s amazing how easy it is to gain weight in such a short amount of
time, and although weight gain is an easy as eating a few too many pieces of
pie, taking off those pounds come January is a much harder tasks.”
To keep those calories from creeping
on this holiday season, Herbalife is sharping these top 10 tips:
Tip
1 – No savings:
Don’t cut down or starve all day to
enjoy the party at night. Skipping your breakfast and lunch is a not a good way
to avoid weight gain. There are many reasons why this is a good tactic; a drop
in sugar level, lack of energy and lack of concentration are just a few of the
down galls of the “starve and binge” technique. Chances are, if you wait all
day to enjoy the party food, you will consume twice the amount because you will
be so hungry.
Tip
2 – Snacks:
Have a healthy protein rich snack
before you head out to a holiday party. Filling yourself up on healthy snacks
that contain protein will keep you full and stop you from having that extra cup
cake.
Tip
3 – Move around:
Use holiday parties as an opportunity
to socialize with your friends. Keep walking around and don’t park yourself
next to chips and dips. Walking counts as exercise so the more you move the
better.
Tip
4 – Dance:
Let loose and dance off the party
calories; the extra bonus is that the more time you spend dancing the less time
you will spend eating.
Tip
5 – Routing:
Don’t skip your work-outs. The best
thing you can do is keep your exercise routine intact. We all know holiday
diets can go awry, but if you can at least keep your workouts going it will
help.
Tip
6 – Watch your drinks:
Try to avoid drinking too many sweet
drinks. It’s amazing how many calories can be hiding in a simple holiday punch.
Stay hydrated with water helps.
Tip
7 – Maximize your time with quick fix workouts:
If time is tight try to do a quick
10-minute routine in the morning and another 10 minutes before you go to bed.
Simple exercises performed in an interval style will help burn some calories
and keep you toed over the holidays.
Tip
8 – Step away from the computer:
Sitting in front of your computer
screen looking for that bargain may cost you in the long run. Stay active this
holiday season by walking around the shops and carrying bags or boxes doubles
up as a workout.
Tip
9 – Make every minute count:
Think active all holiday season. Take
the stairs. Park in the furthest spot from the store. Get outside and go for a
walk. The more active you are the fewer points you will gain.
Tip
10 – Routine:
Don’t wait until January 1st
to start you exercise plan, start today. The sooner you get your body into a
positive active and healthy routine the better chance you have of reaching your
personal health goals.
