If you’ve already written off the Easter long weekend in terms of exercise and healthy food choices, we are here to turn things around.
If you do want to lose pregnancy weight, throwing in some exercise this Easter as well as some healthy eating food will help you to keep your results moving in the right direction.
You can feel less guilty about your hot cross bun intake
Let’s face it, there is a very good chance that you’ll be tucking into a hot cross bun or chocolate egg this weekend.
And while that’s all good as a one off (just try not to eat the whole six pack!) why not do what you can now to keep your scales moving in the right direction.
Be proactive rather than reactive, and you may even see a positive move on the scales on weigh-in day.
Looking for a healthier hot cross bun recipe? Try this one.
You’ll be able to enjoy the extra childcare at home
There tends to be a few more people around the house over the long weekend, so why not make use of the support?
While your family or friends are available to watch the kids, squeeze a workout in. It could be a swim, a walk, or a couple of segments from the Healthy Mummy Post Pregnancy Exercise DVD.
You will have made a good impression on your children
Your kids are always watching how you handle different situations, and there is always a chance to be a good role model.
If they see you treating the long weekend as an excuse to fit more exercise in (not less) they may start to see that healthy eating and exercise is not just something that you do some of the time – it’s a complete lifestyle change.
You can explore somewhere new as a family
Make the most of the fact that you are all off work and school for 4 days and try exercising somewhere you haven’t been before.
It could be as simple as taking the family for a picnic at a new beach and going for a long walk before you eat.
Grab a kite and head to a park that you’ve never been to. Plan a family cycle ride along a bike track that you’ve been meaning to try out.
