10 tips to avoid holiday weight gain

It’s the most wonderful time of the year!

Oh how true that sentence rings! December truly is my most favorite month out of the year.

Feeling great about this progress, you decide to reward yourself with a little treat. “Just one little bite” as you open the  _____ (cake, cookies, ice cream, brownies… your vice here). That bite tastes so amazing that you decide to go in for another, and then another, and another until you realize you’ve eaten ____ (the container, the pan, the jar, etc).

So how do avoid this scenario? Today on Tone-and-Tighten.com I’m sharing 6 of the best ways that you can overcome temptation and improve your self-control. Check them out below… …
