We all know that more than presents come during the holidays. After all of the treats, sweets, and cocktails, we all need some advice for burning off the holiday pudge.
Here are some tips for burning off that extra fat in 2019.

After the holidays, spend a few weeks avoiding bread and other carbs. I know, it's hard. However, it's essential for burning off those holiday calories. Skip the rice, bread, and cookies and you'll be good to go.
Instead, opt for green-based meals or eliminate the starch from your favorite meals, like the tortilla from a taco or the bun from a burger.
2. Go to the gym at least a few times a week.Â

Whether you are a gym addict or just go every now and then, this is the time to kick it into full gear. Go for at least an hour, and make sure to capitalize on cardio exercises like the treadmill and elliptical. Don't carry any laziness into 2019.
3. Lay off the drinks.Â

You had your fair share, so now is the time to take a few weeks away from alcohol. Alcohol usually has a lot of calories and carbs, but even if you drink light, it can still work up an appetite, so take some time off. It'll be good for you - and your liver.
I hope you had a happy holiday and have an even happier New Year. Here's to a great 2019!
