So many years I have got to Christmas Day feeling exhausted, unwell, bloated, already fed up of food and drink, only to not really enjoy the few special days as a result. Desperate for a salad and sparkling water by the 27th!
A few years ago I realised this was the result of me going off too early! Beginning the month thinking “ah well it’s Christmas” and having all the extra food, Quality streets, drinks and late nights for the month and throwing away my December into a haze of bloat and feeling overindulged ending in beating myself up.
Now my tactic is to try and boost my month with as many days of good meals, nutritious soups, salads, plenty of protein, water, nice early nights and lots of fresh air. And it worked! I got to the week of Christmas not only ready to enjoy it feeling good, but also less keen to chuck it all away and really over indulge.
I no longer had that whole year exhaustion feeling and instead was keen to relax and enjoy myself but looking forward already to a new year and all it could continue to bring, rather than laying hopes on the January “give it all up” and “Join the gym” crowd.
