Get a head start on your resolutions

Tips to help make you smile when you jump on the scale in the new year
Food, sleep and relaxation

Get a good night's rest
It's easy to push yourself to the limits until you reach burnout. Yet those dark rings under your eyes aren't the only downside to shirking your sleep time. Concentration levels dip and your immune system also weakens with every night's rest you neglect. So to make it through the party season fresh-faced and alert, make sure you get your full eight hours of sleep each night.

Pamper yourself
With so much to do it's easy to neglect the most important person on your Christmas list -- you. Be good to yourself. Enjoy a soak in the tub, a home manicure or pedicure, or an invigorating face mask. It just takes as little as a half an hour before bedtime, and by morning you'll be pleased you took the time for you.

With a little bit of effort, it's possible to enjoy Christmas without having to make a major life overhaul come January. Just remember it's all about moderation.
