Healthy Holidays – Tips for Staying on Track!

It is more important than ever to do exercise this part of the year. Seasonal sweets are all around us, we gorge on comfort foods that are full of fat and calories, we don't get enough exercise.

Whether it is a visit to the gym 3 times a week, doing exercise with a wii ( pretty inexpensive off of ebay with all kinds of games that can keep you moving) or just doing some movement, just get your heart rate up 15 minutes a day and you will sail through these winter months with less colds and flus, not putting on all those extra pounds and finding you have more energy to handle the stress of the holidays.
