How to Burn Off Post-Holiday Weight Gain
One of the difficulties with post-holiday weight gain is that it happens to come about in the middle of winter. This is not an inspiring time to get out and move. The weather is often cold and wet, and the mornings and evenings are dark. It’s tempting just to hibernate and wait until spring to get in shape.
The trouble is that excess weight may get harder to lose the longer it’s on, and you might get used to it. So take advantage of the timing – it may be the middle of winter, but it’s a new year, and that’s a good time for a healthy weight loss program. Here are some tips for burning off that holiday weight.

How Sheri Carpenter is getting Fit and Healthy

Life On Cinch 1 Week Down #cinchspirational
Well here we are one week in to the Cinch Program. I am feeling great. The Meal in a Bars are really good, This week has been a crazy week so the shakes haven’t been an easy task to drink I am so thankful that there was the opportunity to take it with me to eat while driving down the road to take care of business. The Snack bars are great for the same reason I keep? a few in my purse just in case if I am not able to get a different snack. I was also off for a couple days last weekend when I was having some tummy issues. I am pretty sure it had nothing to do with the Cinch unless it was just the sudden flow of healthier stuff like iron, vitamins, and protein. Before Chich I would often just eat one meal a day so suddenly eating more and all of that may have tossed my IBS in to a frenzy. Glad to say all of that is fixed.
Aromatherapy to Fight Winter Blues
I must say that the winter blues are here in Mommyland, there is little motivation to much of anything. I figured if it is floating around here it may be floating around other lands out there too. So I wanted to share something that has been helping here.
Winter can be a gloomy time. It can feel very long, and the lack of daylight combined with holiday stress can get some people pretty down. What’s interesting is that certain aromas or scents have been known to help lift your spirits during the winter blahs.
