I'm still keeping up on my workout even if Christmas is around the corner. My boys workout half the time with me. It's really cute Christopher knows I make a  smoothie afterwards. He help me by getting the fruit out of the refrigerator. Keep up on whatever program you are on. It will take time to get where you want. I will be right where I want to be by this time next year. The hardest part is keeping up with yourself. I mean I have set a goal that I will meet. I won't give up I have come to far to. Have fun with your workout!

Sugar

People want their sugar and sweets everyday. It's a game once you have something sweet you want more. Artificial sweeteners are ten times sweeter then plain old sugar. It is also linked to weight gain. If I have to have sugar in my coffee I will use cane sugar unbleach. It won't ruin  your diet to have something sweet this Christmas. My choice is eggnog. I love eggnog.When I buy it guess what? It's all mind no one else seems to like it. Homemade eggnog is the best with a hint of rum. Yummy a family recipe I will post soon. Christmas time slam with the New Year around the corner keeping up on your workout routines I know will be a challenge. Keep in mind don't go overboard take a sip or a cookie but know when to stop. Have fun still Bring It everyday. "Do your best and forget the rest." - Tony Horton
I workout for me and me only.
