This is good advice.

It's not just you. MOST of us end up eating more sugar, drinking more alcohol, missing more workouts, and eating fewer vegetables at this time of year. We THINK the problem is that we've lost our motivation. But I don't think we stop wanting to weigh less just because it's the holidays.

It's just that our usual routines get thrown into the blender. Travel, extra obligations, and disruptions in our schedule eat into our usual exercise times. Meal planning and grocery shopping fall by the wayside. And there are so many more opportunities to indulge.

If we fall short of our usual standard, we feel like we've failed, which drains our ambition even further and it quickly turns into an ugly downward spiral.

The solution is to redefine what success looks like at this time of year. Think about what you really need and what feels possible. What do you want to remember most when it's all over? What are you most looking forward to? What could you skip without really missing it? How do you want to feel on New Year's Day?
Having a clear holiday ambition and a realistic plan for how you’re going to make it happen fuels success, which fuels motivation.

What's your ambition for the holiday? How will you define success?

Who says nachos need to be made with tortilla chips? Since both my husband and my kids are big nacho fans, I needed to find a way to make a healthier version.

This is one of my favorite low carb breakfasts! The best part is that this "crustless quiche" is delicious for lunch or dinner too and gets RAVE reviews from family and friends. Make it ahead of time and eat it all week!
Chefs Note: you can use about half the cheese and it still tastes great!
