Momentary Relapse

So, are you one of those who sorta' let your fitness rules go for the last 6 weeks?  Did your gym membership gather dust on the shelf.   (Can you even find your gym membership card?)   Did you stop worrying about whether M & M's were part of a healthy breakfast or not?  Did your daily walk go from daily to weekly to non-existent?  Are you struggling with those fitted jeans that used to fit and now squeeze the stuffing out of you?  Well, if this happened to you, now's the time to get back into a fitness routine.  Research shows that most peopole's New Year's resolutions include at least one plan to improve health through nutrition or exercise or both.   And don't forget about getting a good night's sleep.   That's critical to making you look and feel better.  Now's the time to get started.     Start small with something doable.    You're not training for the Olympics here.     Start with a brisk walk for 30 minutes.    Add some vegetables to your diet.   Eat only 1 cookie instead of 6.    Even small changes can result in big dividends.    The important thing is to do something--and do it now.   Think how glad you'll be in May that you got started now.
