The festive season is here—filled with family gatherings, work parties, and endless trays of delicious food. But if you’re aiming to lose weight or stay on track with your health goals, it can feel like a constant tug-of-war between enjoying yourself and staying disciplined. The good news? You don’t have to choose.
With the right plan, you can drop 15+ pounds while still indulging in Christmas meals, attending parties, and enjoying the holiday season. This 7-step checklist will show you how to find that perfect balance—so you can stay on track and stress-free. Let’s dive in!
1. Start with a Clear Plan
Define your goal (e.g., drop 15+ pounds by New Year).
Write it down and break it into weekly milestones to track progress.
2. Prioritize Protein at Every Meal
Aim for a palm-sized portion of protein (chicken, fish, eggs, tofu) with every meal.
Protein keeps you full, helps maintain muscle, and balances blood sugar.
3. Follow the 80/20 Rule
Eat nutrient-dense foods 80% of the time (lean proteins, veggies, whole grains).
Enjoy indulgences guilt-free for the other 20% (Christmas pudding, cocktails, etc.).
4. Stay Active Daily
Walk for 7,000–10,000 steps per day, even on busy days.
Add 2–3 strength training sessions weekly to boost metabolism.
5. Plan Ahead for Events
Eat a high-protein, veggie-packed meal before parties to avoid overeating.
Pick your indulgences wisely: choose what you love most and savour it.
6. Stay Hydrated
Drink 2–3L of water daily to manage hunger and support digestion.
Alternate alcoholic drinks with water or sparkling water at events.
7. Get Accountability
Share your goal with a coach, friend, or family member who can check in with you.
Track your progress weekly and celebrate small wins to stay motivated.
By following these steps, you’ll be able to stay on track while enjoying all the festive fun!
With these 7 steps, you’ll have a simple, effective strategy to enjoy the season’s festivities while seeing real progress. It’s all about smart choices, staying consistent, and having a plan that works for your life.
