Fitness Tips: The Fall season offers momentous tests to your fitness goals.

By: Arbiep

These fitness tips are to be pondered immediately because most people stumble with their good health habits during the Fall. In the frigid environment the body is craving foods that help the body keep warmish. In the warm environment many of those who are transfers from the cold climate still will crave those foods.
There seems to be more family gatherings this time of year, which brings into play native foods. Many of these cultural foods are fattening and unhealthy. Families in the south have food pushers and I am sure there are a few in other parts of the country. Food pushers are those like my mom who will have you feeling sentenced for not consuming a lot of everything provided(cultural peer pressure).
If you are not prudent, you can easily consume four or five thousand calories in one meal. Remember, it only takes three thousand calories to gain a pound of fat. You just can't work off that many calories in time. If you practice losing weight before these events, then gain it back, you jeopardize yourself to many health concerns. Weight fluctuation can be as perilous as obesity.
On top of this there is after all another aspect, the work place. This is also the season employers and workers are in a giving mode. So there are many more food oriented events happening at the work place, most of which are of foods not contributing to a healthy life style.
Enough already, what is the solution? Those of you who are in the cold climate I empathize with you. It is hard to stay warm. My fitness tips to you is to make those stews and broths with as little salt as possible. Make sure the skin is off the chicken and take in as little as possible. Those of you who are transplants into the warmer climates, I truly suggest you replace that cold climate diet with a lighter, healthier diet. Resist the cravings as much as possible.
Family events have a lot of characters. One of which is the stacked plate syndrome, another is who take in the most. If your family has this going on, then my fitness tips for you are: stack your plate but be prepared to take most of it home, do not magnify gorging. The women will usually display some restraint but the men are into the he-man thing of overeating. Men, your sons are watching you and will follow your lead. If you over eat, they will too. Be firm with food pushers. When you have had enough stand your ground or agree to take it for later.
Employers and workers, my fitness tips to you include drop the sweets. This is one of those "If this is all you can do, it is better to do nothing." This economy may urge more pot luck events in the work place. If this occurs, you are dealing with the same parameters as a family gathering. The stacked plate syndrome, food pushers and the who eats the most are all present at these events. The peer pressure may even be greater. Use good common sense and keep your goals in sight.
The bottom line is if you are strong enough to get through this season gaining less than five pounds, consider yourself successful. Don't beat yourself up if you fail. Rethink the season and understand for next year. If you fall down get back on track as soon as possible. You may be surprised as to how fast you can get things back under control. Above all do not quit.
