Re: How are you doing this holiday season?

I'm doing good so far, but it's still early!
I weighed myself today and I weighed exactly to the ounce what i weighed the day before Thanksgiving. I don't have any strategies except my normal of eating whatever I want in moderation and working out almost every day.

Re: How are you doing this holiday season?

A few years ago, a poster wrote: "It doesn't matter what you eat between Christmas and New Year's, it matters what you eat between New Year's and Christmas." I really believe it is true. Usually, we do not have too many holiday parties so I figure 2-3 days of bad eating days are not going to ruin my everyday life.

Re: How are you doing this holiday season?

I had to cut down my exercise drastically and put on some weight (as per doctor's orders). So right now I'm trying really hard NOT to gain anymore weight than I already did!!

I've been very good so far. I'm going to give myself "off" on Christmas Eve and Day and just enjoy the holiday (and the food!)

Re: How are you doing this holiday season?

I have been doing pretty bad the past couple of weeks. I will have a couple of good days and then we'll have a party, or something else and I'll fall off the wagon.

I can't wait until the holidays are over and I can get back on track.

Re: How are you doing this holiday season?

I've lost weight since Thanksgiving, so I'm happy. But my eating habits and exercise have not been great. Next week, I am going to the gym M-F and will try to eat better.

I havent gained anything. I didn't even gain a pound on thanksgiving either. I've been maintaining my current weight, thank god. I don't want to lose anymore.

Re: How are you doing this holiday season?

I've lost a pound. I haven't deprived myself of trying food that I want to try. First I make sure that I fill up on all good and healthy food at any dinner/parties/holiday gatherings and then allow myself to taste and enjoy small portions of heavier types of food that I normally don't indulge in regularly. I have logged in a few extra miles in addition to my regular routine. I am really proud of myself especially since I don't feel deprived at all. It is all about moderation.
