I hope everybody out there celebrating, had an amazing Easter. I sure did! Easter dinner is always healthy with loads of vegetables, fruit and cheese. The bittersweet part is all of the chocolate.
Even if you don't have kids you may find yourself stocked to the brim with the holiday's traditional sweet gift. Of course, it's okay to indulge on Easter, but what do you do in the weeks to come?
1. Eat it slowly and not everyday. Pace your chocolatey snacks and try to at least, skip a day inbetween sampling the various kinds of sweets.
2. Give it away. If you have guests, offer them some. If you are going to see a friend, bring some over for their kids. It's okay to regift chocolate. Nobody will complain, so share the sweetness!
3. Whatever you do, don't eat it all in one sitting. If you do, expect to wake up two months later, from a sugar induced coma with an awful headache. No, this won't actually happen but a lot of chocolate is A LOT of sugar and it's really not good for you!
Enjoy your chocolate, in moderation!

The Aftermath of Easter

Unfortunately, I’ve made all three mistakes listed here, but without my personal trainer Roland Semprie, God knows that I would still be at that dinner table, still eating. It’s hard to get back into the groove of things especially Easter. But Roland tells me to have no excuses, but to get back on the treadmill again, burn those calories. And I honestly don’t feel and ounce of guilt for indulging over Easter dinner. You just have to dust your self off and get back into it!
It's hard for everyone (trust me, I LOVE chocolate:P) but you're trainer is dead on, make no excuses and get back up again.
One dinner and an Easter bunny (or two) won't kill your progress, it's getting back in to bad habits that will.
Good luck with your workouts!
