Keep Moving, Forget the Diet<br />
Prevent yourself from piling on<br />
the pounds with the culinary<br />
excesses of the festive season by<br />
finding time to commit to a new<br />
routine before Christmas.<br />
The British Dietetic Association<br />
advises moderation to keep<br />
weight at the right level. That<br />
may mean an adjustment to your<br />
lifestyle, calorie intake and the way<br />
you think.<br />
Stick to regular meals times,<br />
reduced portion sizes, takeaways<br />
and sweet treats – often too<br />
tempting. Increased activity<br />
levels will make it easier to stay<br />
motivated as your energy levels,<br />
outlook and mood will improve.<br />
You do have time. Swap the car<br />
for walking or cycling to work or<br />
Get the Look<br />
the shops at least 3 times a week.<br />
Mix your exercise and encourage<br />
a friend to join you.<br />
Join a local gym where trainers<br />
will find quirky ways to support<br />
you in the quest to keep your<br />
weight off. Remember exercise<br />
isn’t just about weight loss – it<br />
supports motivation and boosts<br />
your mood. Happy eating this<br />
Christmas!<br />

There is no shortage of<br />
variety with make-up<br />
trends this season.<br />
Wintry, fresh-faced looks<br />
with pale foundations,<br />
natural bronzed cheeks<br />
and nude lips are back. Lip<br />
stains give a matte, undone<br />
finish while gloss offers a<br />
youthful, feminine look.<br />
Party looks should<br />
be dramatic, bold or<br />
colourful. Black eye-liners<br />
shout decadence – a<br />
sophisticated 60s flick or<br />
water-lined eyes. Shades of blue lead the way for colour, although<br />
harmonies work too. Smudge and blend well for the smokey-eyed look.<br />
Crystals, silver accents or glitter radiate indulgence. Hollywood glamour<br />
is achieved with reds. Marry both trends to create a contrasting and<br />
original look that shows off your confidence.<br />
<strong>Local</strong> beauticians can help with your look, as well as a skincare routine.<br />
Simple<br />
Steps<br />
1. Boost your immune system<br />
Avoid stress – take time out to<br />
relax.<br />
Sleep – at least 8 hours a night<br />
repairs cells and builds your<br />
immune system.<br />
Eat well – lots of fruit and<br />
vegetables.<br />
Exercise – regular moderate<br />
activity strengthens your heart<br />
and immunity.<br />
2. Prevent germs taking hold<br />
Wash your hands – before a<br />
meal, after using the bathroom,<br />
after sneezing, coughing blowing<br />
nose.<br />
Clean – desks, phones, computers,<br />
pens etc.<br />
Hands away – from food, your<br />
nose and mouth.<br />
