The holidays are over and so is your waistline. Chances are during the holidays you feasted like a medieval king with no consequences, cookies, pies, cakes, eggnog, turkey, chicken stuffed in a turkey, stuffing stuffed into a chicken stuffed into a turkey, but now you are reaping the fatty ramifications of your extraordinary food binge. If getting up every morning feels like hiking the Appalachian Trail, then it’s time to hit the gym.
