Motivation for Monday (How was your weekend?)

Almost everyone (I can be guilty of this too, once in a while) falls off their good eating habits during the weekend. The weekend is when there are events and get-togethers, where there are a lot of temptations. For some it is a weekend of relaxing and being home and sometimes this causes you to binge eat or eat more than you normally should. 
If you are one of those people who were very busy over the weekend and it can caused you to get something unhealthy that was quick to eat on the go. Or, did you go to the party and eat too much of those really good chips and dip and had an extra cocktail. Or, were you so busy that you came home after a crazy day and ate whatever you saw while making dinner?

As hard as it is trying to plan ahead. If you know you're going to be busy the next day then pack snacks and something quick and efficient and you could eat on the road or in between errands. s.

If you are one of those people who spend your weekends at home relaxing the make sure that you don't have any food that will cause temptation laying around. If you don't buy it, you can't eat it.

If your weekends consist of events and get-togethers, dinners out, parties, or night clubs, it is sometimes better to eat at home before you leave that way you are not hungry and eating unnecessary calories just because they are laying around at an event or party. All of the calories in those snacks add up. Also, if doesn't hurt to study the menu before you do somewhere, so you know your food options.

There's no reason or excuse to ruin an entire week of working hard in the gym and eating healthy during the weekend. It's not worth it. Learn to eat according to your goals. 

I hope this could be if you could pointers seeing as it is Monday...make sure you start your week off on the right track and continue your hard work all the way through the week and through the weekend.
