    well with extra days off to me that means longer mornings- so yes- clearly 2 a day sex sessions is a minimum around the holidays- perfect time to get that extra cardio in.

    I concur.

    Since I haven't gone to any christmas parties or events, the only problem is the boxes of chocolates that work keeps putting out in the copy rooms. I stayed away from them today. Not so much last week.

    I'm not making treats. Last year was easy because I couldn't indulge, so I didn't indulge. Made the treats, gave them away with only a few, "Woe is me, I can't eat it" moments.

    This year, I know I'd eat them. So, I'm taking a year off. :grinning:

    I may cave and make the Pumpkin bread, though. I can freeze it. :)

    I'm guessing I'll try to redo last year. ate all I wanted , wasn't on mfp so didn't log, worked out a bit more and danced my bottom off trying to lose as much as I could of what I probably had gained. Bottom line I ended up not gaining or losing anything at all over the holidays and was thrilled!

    I'm at maintenance now. Basically, I've been trying to eat under my calorie goal during the week, leaving myself a nice cushion so when I get to the weekends and the attendant holiday parties/dinners, I can go over on those days while still staying at or near the weekly goal.

    this!

    At work there's going to be a ton of my weakness - chocolate. It started today... my plan is to definitely have a few pieces but not go overboard and make these treats into a meal, like in previous years.

    I have a dessert potluck coming up and instead of bringing something unhealthy I was thinking of making a healthy dessert of some sort, ideally gluten free.

    The holidays are all about dodging bullets and turning potential mess-ups into an opportunity to reinforce your eating plan.

    I have been doing as I have been. Sugar cravings or cravings come and go. I will definitely not be as strict for Christmas dinner. That is one thing that I will enjoy but exercise so much to minimize the damage.
