    Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without turkey, lamb, lobster, prawns.the occasional glass of alcohol and all the chocolates you can eat.WoYum Yum

    ButWAIT it can be a trap for too many of us trying to be fit. All of ourgood intentions to lose weight and keep fit get trashed on special

    occasions like Christmas.Curling up in bed seems more attractive than exercise. But do you wantto go on feeling like that until the New Year? Do those mouth wateringcakes provide just too much temptation?

    Then here is some advice that you may take:

    Create A Plan to Avert the Bulge in you The ugliest part of having a food hangover is the feeling of being helpless, feelingthat you have lost control.

    So before you start, REMEMBER!!! You are in control of what you put inyour mouth. Take control before you have given it up!

    Visualize yourself eating slowly, taking small portions, enjoying the foodmore and eating less. Give yourself 10-20 minutes to write down how good you will feel when

    you eat in moderation, as compared with how disgusting it feels after youhave over indulged. Write down how you want to feel. For example, you want to feel energetic,not dazed; confident and look good, not embarrassed by your body.List what you have been eating and consider your plan for moderation. Create an exercise plan for those challenging days.

    Don't Let the Lapse Become a Collapse! When tempted, think twice before you bite. It might seem perfectly reasonable tofinish off those leftover foods, but one mistake leads to another, then anotherand, before you know it, you are in full-blown.

    Remember , emotions can be powerful eating triggers, perhaps more so thanreal hunger. And it's sometimes hard to tell which is which.

    If you're craving more sweets or quantities of food, take a 10-minute time-out to study your feelings.Go to the store, go for a walk, go into a different room. If emotions arefuelling your hunger, try a healthy alternative like a brisk walk first.Chances are it will alter your mood and you won't want to eat or drink.

    Work Out, But don't overdo it!

    Think of exercise as a tension reducer that makes you happy. To burn off theexcess calories provided by just one piece of Christmas dessert, it can take daysof running, swimming or frantic aerobics. But you don't have to burn it all off atonce - that kind of thinking sets you up to fail. You should definitely exercise, butdon't punish yourself.

    Drink Water!

    Keep drinking water all throughout the day. And then another glass. Water is anatural diuretic and thus a fantastic way to wash away toxins and prevent fluidretention. You could start by drinking warm water with lemon. Warm water is lessshocking to your system and the citric acid jumpstarts your digestion.

    Burn Calories by Napping!

    Sleep is a secret ingredient in the battle to loose weight. Bad sleep increasesstress hormones in the body. This makes blood sugars fluctuate even more wildly;leaving you hungry and wanting more comfort food!!. A 15-minute nap or quietrest could do more good than the punitive exercise you were planning.

    Create Your Plan You can lose more weight, by planning in advance. The more you plan ahead, theeasier it will be to stick to a heal thy routine. Advance planning is far moreeffective that repairing damage afterwards.

    Good luck. Remember to enjoy the Holidays. Remember, the more you takecontrol, the more you will enjoy the season celebrations!

    "Eat Right 4 Your Type" - Blood Type Diet

    Blood type is the key that unlocks the door to the mysteries of health, disease,longevity, physical vitality and emotional strength . Blood type determinesyour susceptibility to illness, which foods you should eat and how you shouldexercise. It is a factor in your energy levels, the efficiency with which you burncalories, your emotional response to stress and perhaps even your personality.

    The connection between blood type and diet may sound radical, but it is not.There had to be a reason why there were so many paradoxes in dietary studiesand disease survival. There also had to be an explanation for why some peoplewere able to lose weight on particular diets, while others were not; why somepeople retained vitality late into life, while others deteriorated mentally andphysically.

    The understanding of blood type takes the science of genetics one step further bystating that every human being is utterly unique. There is no right or wronglifestyle or diet; there are only right or wrong choices to be made based on ourindividual genetic codes.

    If you follow your Blood Type Plan regime carefully, you can:

    Avoid many common viruses and infections.Lose weight, as your body rids itself of toxins and fats.

    Fight back against life-threatening diseases, such as cancer,cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and liver failure.Avoid many of the factors that cause rapid cell deterioration, thusslowing down the ageing process.

    The concept to " Eat Right For Your Type " - or " Blood Type Diet " is based on researchconducted by Peter D'Adamo, ND, who claims that people fare better including with weightmanagement when tailoring their diet to their specific blood types. He advises:

    Type A types - Should basically stick to fruits and vegetables (high carbs / low fat).- They have thicker blood than other blood types, a sensitive immune

    system, and should not consume dairy products, animal fats andmeats.

    - They are at a heightened risk for cardiovascular disease, diabetesand cancer.

    Type B types - Should consume a balanced diet (fruits and vegetables, grains, fish,dairy, meat, but avoid chicken).

    - They have the best chance of bypassing or overcoming everydaytypes of diseases, including heart disease and cancer.

    Type AB types - should consume mostly vegetarian diet, and only on rareoccasions some fish, meat (no chicken), and dairy

    Type O types - should basically stick to a high protein diet (including red meat),low carbs, and enriched with fruits and vegetables.

    - They should limit the intake of wheat germ, whole wheat products,corn, and avoid dairy products and most nuts.

    - Type O types are commonly affected with hypothyroidism, highstomach acid (leading to ulcers), and thinner blood with greaterresistance to blood clotting.
