You can never have enough socks during these winter months. My feet are always cold and they are the best.<\/p>\n<p>2) How do you stay fit and healthy when all the holiday parties call?<\/p>\n<p>Great question and I am also doing my next story on just this topic. Staying fit and healthy during the holidays with the help of Steve Nash Fitness World and Sports Club. Some of my top tips I suggest include: eat before you go out, choose protein options that help you stay full longer and prevent a crash later. Make small changes like staying away from canap\u00e9s which are high in fat and go for the veggie tray instead. Plan in advance. If you know you\u2019re going to a holiday party in the evening, have a healthy breakfast and lunch, get 30 mins of cardio or resistance training in if you can and you\u2019ll feel better indulging in those sugar cookies or a cocktail or two or three. I choose to drink gin and soda over wine or cocktails. Basically it\u2019s all balance and not over doing it. For the full column stay tuned to next week\u2019s edition of the Westender on newsstands Thursdays.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodlifevancouver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/go-travel-digital-scale.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"28872\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/goodlifevancouver.com\/staging\/2138\/all-i-want-for-christmas-with-natalie-langston\/go-travel-digital-scale\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodlifevancouver.com\/staging\/2138\/wp-content\/uploads\/go-travel-digital-scale.jpg?fit=800%2C800&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"800,800\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"go travel digital scale\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodlifevancouver.com\/staging\/2138\/wp-content\/uploads\/go-travel-digital-scale.jpg?fit=788%2C788&amp;ssl=1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-28872\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodlifevancouver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/go-travel-digital-scale.jpg?resize=788%2C788\" alt=\"go travel digital scale\" width=\"788\" height=\"788\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodlifevancouver.com\/staging\/2138\/wp-content\/uploads\/go-travel-digital-scale.jpg?w=800&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodlifevancouver.com\/staging\/2138\/wp-content\/uploads\/go-travel-digital-scale.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodlifevancouver.com\/staging\/2138\/wp-content\/uploads\/go-travel-digital-scale.jpg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 788px) 100vw, 788px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>2) \u00a0 What about something not even related to fitness\u00a0that you are might want?<\/p>\n<p>I read a great article in <a href=\"http:\/\/Notable.ca\">Notable.ca<\/a> recently on Travel Accessories and the Go Travel Digital Luggage Scale would seriously make my life a lot easier!
