I hope you had a wonderful holiday season.  I definitely did!

Not only did we celebrate my son’s first Christmas, but my husband and I are in Charleston, South Carolina with our wonderful family for the next several days.

We arrived here very late on Wednesday night, after a traffic filled 16 hours in the car (thank goodness for my healthy food cooler!).  Thursday and Friday were filled with gifts, family and lots of delicious food!  I will confess, my husband and I did have our fair share of sweets and treats, but we have continued to eat healthy and even took a trip to Whole Foods yesterday.

On Saturday morning we also went right over to the local gym in town and got ourselves a week membership.  Yes, my husband did try to pull the old “Let’s start on Monday morning” routine but I knew we would feel so much better all week long if we maintained our work out schedule and maintained our healthy daily eating.  Besides, it’s very rare that my husband and I ever get to go to the gym together so it’s actually a pretty fun part of our vacation.

Just in case you’re waiting for January 1^st to get started on your own weight loss and fitness goals, I’m going to give you a swift kick in the butt and say…START NOW!  You’ll be amazed at what a difference just one week makes!

Just think about it.  By this time next week, you may already be a pound leaner, less bloated and much happier with how you feel when you wake up each morning.

How can I help you start 2010 off with a bang?  Well, I’ve got an awesome surprise for you this coming Thursday  and I’m working on the finishing touches right now!  Make sure to watch your email inbox closely…

Two last things before my husband and I are off to the gym…

First,  I just heard Craig Ballantyne, author of Turbulence Training, is offering his incredible workout system for 50% off this week.

He’s never done this kind of a sale before, so if you’re looking for a great workout to start off 2010, this one comes highly recommended by me.  If you want to details on what Craig’s program is all about, I’ve done a thorough review of it here on my fitness review page:

It’s the third one down, but you’ll see there are also some other really great programs on there as well.

Second, I wanted to share with you one of the BEST Christmas presents I got this year.  It was a gift from my brother in law, sister in law and niece and it is perfect for my healthy DSP lifestyle!

Take a look at this great gift. It’s a new travel cooler for carrying around my healthy food:

Stay tuned…I’ve got a lot of great stuff coming this week..NEW recipes, NEW videos and a great surprise this Thursday!
