Try This, Not That

Health is an accumulation of the daily choices made over a long period of time. It’s not what we do every once in a while, but rather what we do consistently that gives us the results we currently have. The holiday season can be a time of stress and dread if you are committed to your health and feeling great, but are surrounded by choices that lead to feeling bloated, puffy, fat and guilty. It is possible to have a healthier holiday and I don’t mean Tofurky and carrot sticks! Here is a list of some Healthy Edge approved alternatives that will be sure to make the holidays feel and taste like the holidays without the side of regret! – Coach Amber
