Have you studied or worked long and hard in the week? Friday it’s time to trasition into your weekend and to have a relaxing time. What is the cost for having a nice time?
The thing that receives the least amount of attention in the weekend is how you continue your healthy choices from during the week. If you are serious about maintaining your health benefits it’s certainly something to keep in mind. The important decision lies in your hand. Do you want to have a flexible weekend to keep your sanity following your healthy week? There is no doubt that the stressfull week can have it’s influence on the end of your week.
When I eat with my friends, it is a moment of real pleasure, when I really enjoy my life. – Monica Bellucci
If a slightly loose weekend helps you preparing for next week than that is what you have to do. Turning your life into a healthy one is more important than just having one entire week to be healthy including the weekend. Having a friday night with your friends will improve how easy you will have nice healthy week starting from monday. It certainly does add some pleasure to your lifestyle enjoying an evening with your friends.
An alternative way of taking on the weekend challenge is by not having every weekend completely the same. Some weekend go out and eat anything you want. Othertimes just go eat some pizza slices, other weekends stay home and cook a nice healthy meal. How much you enjoy a healthy meal will determine how often you can step away from the traditional ‘eat-all-out weekends’.
Everyone needs a replenishing moment where they can sometimes eat whatever they want. If you decide to plan that into every weekend then you know you will be capable of sustaining your new lifestyle for longer. The changes don’t have to deprive you of everything you liked before, it only changes your ways slightly.
