PALEO 101 w/TIFF

Last week I received an email from my good friend Jayne.  She passed on an article that she found from paleocookbook.com about surviving the holiday weight gain. 

Since I know the holidays are a time that we ALL struggle with nutrition, I thought we could all use a good read reminding us of some helpful ways to stay healthy during holiday gatherings. 

Thanks for sharing this great find Jayne! 

Below are the key points from the article.   

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

TIFF

 

It is that time of year again. Going shopping, holiday parties, loads of festive foods…and unfortunately for many also a time of unwanted weight gain.

Most people just shrug it off to the “holidays??? and assume that it will be OK once they make their New Years Resolution to lose it. How many really do though?

What is the cost of adding up a few pounds here and a few poundsthere year after year? Why wait till the New Years to make a resolution to stay healthy and lean?
