Thanksgiving Hangover

I know, I know, we really stuffed our faces last night.  One Thanksgiving, as an adolescent thinking weight gain was not an issue, I put myself on the scale after devouring several plates of Mom's good stuff.  That was the last time I went on that diabolical measuring device within two weeks of the waist-expanding holiday.  But, Thanksgiving has passed and we are in the thick of a calorie ambush, a.k.a. the Holiday Season.  So, you could either pull out the "comfy" jeans or do damage control.  

So, what about today? May I suggest the following...

If you are experiencing a sugar rush from the amount of desert you inhaled do a fat blaster interval workout.  

If you are feeling rather sluggish from the dopamine try a relaxing yoga routine.  

If your think your hand to mouth exercises last night made your arms gobble like a turkey, try a cardio-centered weight routine

If you think you deserve to be whipped with the dish-towel used to dry the platters last night, think again.  An abnormally intense workout to ease the guilt of consumption may land you with an injury and side-line you straight through new years.  Punishment and guilt won't correct the mistakes of last night.  But, re-centering your routine will help mitigate them. 

Lace up your sneaks and be thankful for your gym membership.
