Get fatter or Get leaner – your choice

So it’s September again. Its crazy how time flies’s huh?
Anyway, it’s that time of year again. You know the fall, back to school, football, and yes – the dreaded holiday season (Which is rapidly approaching btw).
Between Thanksgiving and New Years Eve – it is said that the average American gains ten pounds of fat.
Now, I’m not sure how accurate that number is, but I know one thing is for certain – the majority of people gain weight this time of year!
And when we welcome the New Year, people will join gyms and hire personal trainers in droves to lose those same ten pounds (and then some)!
I have already heard people talking about it – “I’ll try to maintain until the New Year and then start losing weight again”.
It just doesn’t make sense to me…
There is currently over sixteen weeks until New Years (I know – I remember last winter like it was last month).
So why wait over 4 months to start losing weight, especially through the 4 hardest months of the year in (terms of sticking to a fat loss diet).
Think about it, from Now till the New Year obstacles (parties and gatherings where an abundance of food and alcohol are present) are all over the place.
You have the Jewish holiday’s late September/early October (that’s for my Jewish readers out there), Halloween, thanksgiving, Christmas and Then New Years.
No wonder why people want to wait – it seems like there is not enough time to get your fitness and nutrition plan going with “full steam ahead”.
I disagree!!!
If you plan it out right and commit to the 90%/10% nutrition rule we live by at Optimal Performance, then it shouldn’t be as hard as you think.
In fact, it’s quite possible to cut sixteen to thirty-two pounds of fat by the end of the New Year – It’s only one to two pounds per week you know.
Very, very doable.
If you plan it out right you can save your cheats and bad meals for the holiday’s parties where you can enjoy burgers, holiday feasts, drink booze, etc… And still stay on track, lose fat and completely transform your body by January.
All you have to do is commit and plan your nutrition a bit – Then when you hit the New Year’s party, you’ll be ten, twenty or thirty pounds leaner.
And assuming the average American will gain ten pounds by then — you’ll be AT LEAST 20lbs leaner than your friends and be envied by everyone around you (can we say “get out that little black dress)
