raditionally, winter is a time when we slow down and
indulge in calorie-laden comfort food; however, this
year I am proposing you try and do the opposite. By
staying active and continuing to eat healthily all season long,
you’ll boost your chances of entering spring and summer
feeling happier and healthier!
T
To help keep you on track this winter, we’ve provided you
with loads of info and recipes, plus we’ve included a great
four-week healthy habit challenge, which encourages you to
make small changes that can potentially deliver significant
results. We’d love you to take on the challenge, and to hear
how it all goes, so please do drop us a line and let us know.
I look forward to hearing from you, and hope you enjoy our
winter edition.
Yours in health
