Eating and Eating More..

"Eating and Eating More!”


It is the holidays and time to eat, don’t worry about the calorie count, just don’t over eat and eat frequently and remember to at least walk for 30 minutes every other day during the holiday season. Let your body and mind recover from the hours in the gym during this time and enjoy your family and friends. There will be plenty of time in your life to burn extra calories and exercise.



Have a great holiday season!
