TREAT, DON’T FEAST
Being cold isn’t an excuse to fill up
on junk, but you can allow yourself
a yummy hot chocolate – just
make sure you savour it.

TRAIN AT HOME!
When you work out indoors, it
doesn’t matter if it’s raining or
cold outside.

DON’T BE SO HARD
ON YOURSELF...
You’re human and sometimes you’re not going to eat to
plan. That’s OK! Just reset and start fresh the next day.
DRINK UP
People often mistake thirst for hunger. Just
because the sun isn’t blaring down upon you
doesn’t mean hydration is any less important.

GET CRAFTY
Comfort food can stay if you make smart swaps. Try
a baked apple with honey and sultanas instead of that
apple pie, swap ice-cream for Greek yoghurt, or make
cauliflower ’n’ cheese instead of mac ’n’ cheese.

Before you succumb to those choc
brownies and bowls of alfredo
pasta, read fitness guru Tiffany
Hall’s (tiffxo.com) tips to keep
winter weight in check!
