MAKE A COMMITMENT:
Studies show that dieting during the holidays is doomed to fail. SO DON’T START NOW! Instead, make a small permanent lifestyle change. Think of it as a practice run before the real thing in January: your New Year’s Resolutions.

SET A GOAL:
A good place to start: focus on maintaining your weight. Don’t gain those 5 pounds that statistics say will appear in December. Begin with the 3 core behaviors.

1. Drink a shake for breakfast.
2. Drink 1/2 your weight in ounces of water each day.
3. Walk for 20 minutes, 3 days a week.

B.A.L.A.N.C.E. IS THE FOCUS:
If you are not battling the bulge, use the 7 Natural Laws to find another target. Are you getting enough rest? Do you pay more attention to others than you own needs? Have you picked up the vitamin habit yet? Use December to restore balance in your life. At a time when life pulls you in a dozen directions, use these daily logs to create focus and stability in your life.
