Planning for V-Day: A few tips to help create a healthy tradition on Valentines day
Another holiday is upon us, and you know what that means; chocolate, candy and unhealthy snacks everywhere you turn. Here are a few tips to make your Valentines day a healthy and happy one!
New year, new you!
We love this time of year, although it is just a date on a calendar, the beginning of a new year sparks something in all of us. It is a chance to reflect on the year past, wipe our slate clean and start the new year with new choices. It is like hitting life’s restart button (we all know we’ve wanted to that a time or two)
When we are able to stick with our new choices, they soon turn into habits; and when the next new year comes around we can look back and see all the benefits of those resolutions we made. The trick is sticking to those resolutions when the excitement of the “new year, new you” gives way to well, reality.
10 Ways To Avoid Developing a Negative Attitude
We love them, but sometimes our loved ones can make us a little grouchy throughout the holidays. Here are some tips to help you manage your stress, and take control over your emotional state:
Self Compassion and Weight Loss
Often times, we care for others better than we care for ourselves. This can cause us to seek comfort from outside sources, rather than from within. However, there is a direct relationship between people that practice self-compassion, or self-kindness, and their ability to lose weight and keep it off.
Why Go Figure
There are many weight-loss programs out there and while these programs may help with short-term weight loss, they may not be the best choice for long-term weight management, in respect to financial decisions, and in terms of nutritional balance. Some programs sell packaged foods, such as nutritional shakes and various other snack foods that are a core component of a weight loss program, and are not optional. This is something that we pride ourselves on here at Go Figure: you get to eat real food, which you purchase yourself.
