I just got home after a gorgeous 60km Saturday morning ride with friends, and making new friends at The Bank Cafe. ๐ดโโ๏ธ๐ดโโ๏ธ๐ด๐ผ๐ดโโ๏ธ๐ฅ๐ณโ๏ธ
There is nothing wrong with allowing yourself the odd yummy treat, and a glass or two of bubbly if thats what you like, over the festive season ๐ฅ๐ซ๐ฅฎ๐๐ง
But I suggest you try to balance it out with healthy choices when you can.
That way there will be less work to do when you get back into your normal routine after the holidays.
Easy ways to keep things a bit healthier; drink sparkling water with some fruit slices, and a dash of citrus juice, or cucumber slices and mint? ๐ฅ๐ฑ throughout the day, allowing just one or two alcoholic drinks with your main meal.

Eat your food slowly, and chew it well.
Have a shot of ACV before each meal.
Check in with your body half way through a meal. Are you truly hungry, are you just eating on auto pilot, or so as not to ofend the cook?
Or were you taught to finish everything on your plate as a child? I still remember my Mother talking about the โstarving Biafranโsโ, guilting me into eating more ๐
Also, resting is great, but you still need to move regularly. Even if you just do some stretching and yoga on the floor with the airconditioner on ๐ค๐ง๐ปโโ๏ธ๐คธโโ๏ธ๐๐ผโโ๏ธ
What are you all doing to stay fit over the holiday break? ๐ช๐ป๐
