I have 5 pounds to go and there are 5 weeks until Christmas. Can I lose weight during the holidays? I think I can if I get a workout in most days! Plus, I am training for a marathon and I have to run at least 15 miles every saturday through the holidays!! I just had to put this out there, if I tell others- I will stick to it! Anyone else heading into the homestretch on your weighloss journey? -Jen

    I definitely think you will do it. I'm training for a 1/2 marathon and the pounds have been melting off cuz all the running. Good luck.

    I almost ALWAYS lose weight over the holidays - which is funny since most people tend to gain.
    I think it's because I find I ramp up my workouts when I have more time off work.

    My goal is to lost 10 lbs before Christmas, so if I can do it - you can definitely lost 5!
    and 15 miles every saturday?! you go girl! keep it up!
