7 ways to enjoy the holidays and still stay slim



We're into the months of November and December. If you've recently Xyngularized your life, you may be dreading these months with all their holidays and parties because in the past they were responsible for blowing your resolve. All that peer pressure from relatives and friends telling you to "lighten up and give in." It could be scary. Or it could be fun. 

If you plan ahead with a few rules you set for yourself, you could have a great time at all your family gatherings and celebrations. You can certainly stay slender within the Xyngular® holiday guidelines and possibly even persuade a few of your friends and family members to join you in your Xyngular lifestyle change. Here are a few ideas.

Remember, it's not about testing your willpower against the impossible social pressure of your boss' favorite high-calorie indulgence. Here are 7 ways to become your own best ally in your weight loss battle.

#1: Let Facebook help you. Start now broadcasting how you're going to approach the holidays, have all the fun you can, and still keep the weight off. 

#2: Invite friends to join you in your Xyngular "I'm not going to gain weight through the holidays" challenge. Make it a club and a commitment. Get those who join you to check on you. Give yourselves "free days" followed by all the systems Xyngular has taught you in the IGNITE™ program likely only having protein after 5:00 p.m. or going back on a few days of IGNITE after a "free day."

#3: Never go to a holiday party starving. Grab something healthy with natural fiber or protein on the way out the door to the party. A LEAN Shake is perfect. These foods will start digesting slowly, and set in motion the hunger-satisfying chemicals in your brain that will help you resist the loads of empty carbs that you'll be offered in the way of candy and rich desserts. You'll be able to resist seconds and suggest smaller portions if the chemicals in your brain are working on your behalf. 

#4: Keep healthy treats that you love around the house. Search for recipes and treats from healthy stores. Stock up on things you can look forward to enjoying. It could be special sharp cheeses with fresh fruits or shrimp with a little cocktail sauce. 

#5: Plan ahead of time to choose foods you want a lot of. Don't think in terms of what you can't have. That will just make you crazy. Plan ahead for what you can. Instead of lamenting that you can't have, plan on having all you want of what you can have. Enjoy plenty of white turkey meat with steamed vegetables or fresh cranberry sauce. 

#6: Bring healthy treats and dishes of your own. Find a great recipe for spinach soufflé. If you have something really delicious and healthy, you can be your own biggest fan and take most of your meal from your own dish. 

#7: Plan ahead for Protein-Only days and protein-only meals. Even with the free days, make sure the overall impact of the holidays is healthy and lean. Treat yourself to especially delicious protein-only treats like special cuts of meat or fish and exceptionally flavorful LEAN Shake recipes. 

ACTION STEPS:
1. As you plan the holiday parties and start accepting invitations, take time to glance through this list and plan ahead. Shop now for healthy treats so you don't get caught in the trap of last-minute choices that you can't thing through properly.

2. Start the season right with your Xyngular team party and a commitment to share only healthy treats including holiday versions of LEAN Shakes and other ways to use Xyngular products. Remind them how they can CHEAT everything.
