When Tomorrow Never Comes
By Meggan Larson
New Year’s Eve is coming and with it comes our list of new years resolutions. Many of us will undoubtedly have weight loss on that list as we likely do every year. Between now and New Years there is at going to be at least one holiday (two if you’re American) and that usually means overindulgence and eating off plan. How many of you have resolved to really get on plan on January 1st?
There is a big problem with this mindset and the problem is…
There is a lot of time between now and then! How many of us have said that we’ll get back on plan “tomorrow” which really translates into “I-can-eat-whatever-I-want-today-because-it’s-the-last-day-I-can-eat-like-this”. But for how many of us did tomorrow never come? How many of us found ourselves still eating whatever we wanted several weeks later? If we adopt the mindset that we’ll get on plan in the new year then that will likely make us think that this is the very last holiday season that we’ll be able to eat however we want. We will super overindulge, gain way more weight than we normally would have, and most likely feel incredibly discouraged and unmotivated when the 1st comes.
Let’s do ourselves a favor and start right now. Who needs to wait for the new year to start eating healthier and make wiser choices? Get on plan NOW so that you won’t give yourself an excuse to overindulge. We’ve been setting you up with awesome on plan holiday recipes that are mouthwatering and delicious and will keep you on track like the pumpkin pie and we’ve even shown you how to make an on plan turkey with stuffing!
This year let the holiday season be joyous and not laced with regrets and extra weight. Imagine how much better you’ll feel about achieving your new years resolution when you’ve already lost a few pounds before the new year even began. Use the momentum from the end of 2015 to propel you into 2016 the right way!

Meggan Larson is a wife, mom of three, and challenge overcomer! Being diagnosed with a rare form of cancer and undergoing aggressive chemotherapy when her second born child was only three months old, gave Meggan an expected twist to her life. Dealing with pregnancy weight gain and the debilitating effects of chemotherapy, Meggan’s weight soared to over 228 pounds. Feeling humiliated with no desire to socialize, Meggan was desperate for a change. Shortly after losing 20 pounds with the Trim Healthy Mama program, Meggan found out she was pregnant with baby number three, which ended in an emergency C-section and unexpected hysterectomy. Despite the challenges she faced, Meggan has just celebrated her one year “trimiversary”, and her success of releasing just over 60 pounds! Meggan is confident that her success on plan is “doable” for anyone looking to gain back their health and wanting to live a trim and healthy lifestyle!
