So how do you feel after Christmas and New Year? If you overindulged then I guess you feel pretty crappy right? You are certainly not alone J Too many late nights, lazy days, nutrient devoid foods, alcohol and TV have probably made you feel less than healthy. How do your work trousers feel? A bit tight? I know mine do!!
How are you going to make yourself feel better?
Take these simple steps and you’ll be feeling much better after a few days
1. Don’t make any New Years Resolutions – they don’t work! Instead commit to a new way of living
2. Drink plenty of fresh filtered or bottled water every day. As a rule, 1 litre per 50lbs body weight. Your body needs to be well hydrated to release toxins and lose fat and water.
3. Remove any sugars (including alcohol!) from your diet for at least two weeks. This will stabilise your blood sugars which will give you more energy. You will also give your liver a rest.
4. Go for a walk, 30 minutes per day preferably outside. Walking is great for lowering the stress hormone cortisol which makes you body store fat around the middle. Forget any punishing exercise regime for now. Your body is toxic and needs to be eased into moving.
5. Try removing caffeine, gluten and dairy for 2 weeks to really give your body a great cleanse. Think of it as rebooting your body ready for an great 2012 J
I won’t lie, you will feel pretty tired for a few days but if you can stick with it you will feel amazing.
