How to deal with the Halloween Aftermath!

You take the kids out for a fun night of Trick or Treat. You start out with just one innocent little fun size candy bar, then another... then another. "Oh well", you think, "I've already messed up so may as well fill up my own jack o latern!" By the night's end, you have an awful stomach ache with a heaping load of guilt!


Don't let the guilt drag you down. Wake up the next day with a fresh start, it will be November 1st afterall. Start the new month with a new you! But how do you get rid of the lingering effects of your sugar "hangover"?
  • Eat small meals every 2-3 hours full of lean proteins, fresh fruits and veggies, and complex carbs. The fiber will help your digestion. These meals will help to regulate your body and get your metabolism back on track.
  • Hydrate! Drink plenty of water throughout your day to help to flush out those toxins.
  • Get your sweat on. Get in a good workout with both weight training and cardio. It will help to make you feel better from the night before.
  • Keep pressing forward. Don't think about past pitfalls. Just look to the future and create a plan to reach your goals.
Happy Halloween!
