Stay on track during the holidays

The holidays are the only times when people get to relax and spend quality time with their friends or family. People have the chance to explore new places, learn more about new cultures and embrace different experiences. Suffice to say holidays are the best days of the year, but people tend to come back to school or work feeling worse than when they had left. Why? Most likely because they have been over-eating without working out, causing the guilt to seep in. It is understandable because family gatherings are legendary for their large amounts of food, and even larger quantities of insistent family members, making meals impossible to refuse.
