    Although I am not Canadian I visit Canada often. I put on 1 lb. for each visit. I think it is the gravy on the french fries.

    For me, it's January. :ohwell:

    I;m OK in October...there are birthdays and Halloween to keep me occupied.
    November is my month for Christmas shopping.....busy busy!
    December is Christmas Party Month, Decorating MOnth, and then the big holiday itself.

    January is just....boring. Hubs is usually out ice fishing all weekend, so I am alone with the kids, who are also bored. lol. :sad:

    Not to mention January is by far the coldest so dragging butt to the gym is HARD!! I tend to be ok with my eating habits (having a stomach bug over halloween really helped cut out the urge to eat all of the junk) and am not overly concerned with that, but I am NOT a fan of that cold that's coming.

    This, coming from a 23 year old who spelled 'defiantly' instead of definitely not once, but twice, in his profile - does not mean much.

    Definitly not just you. For the past couple weeks I've been wanting to eat everything in reach, but, as I'm sure others have said, Novemeber is time to get back on the journey.

    Right now it's c-c-c-cold in Saskatchewan and I LOVE comfort food. I've only been on MFP since Summer, so I'm curious as to how my winter will go. If it's not +25 I'm cold.

    I find it easier to lose in the winter than the summer. Id rather dress warm and go walking than to do it in the summer when I could be doing other things. I usually gain come summer .

    Not Canadian but from Minnesota. All I want to eat is mashed potatoes, heavy soups, pot roast, more mashed potatoes, pumpkin pie, even more mashed potatoes etc! This spring I'm getting married though and my dress is mermaid style so I've got to keep myself in check this winter.

    Know where you're coming from.
    I am going to curl 2-3 times a week instead of once a week to get more physical activity in.
    I also thought ahead and stocked up my freezer with frozen veggies and a little bit of canning to take advantage of the veggies from my garden (well, friends' gardens) this summer.
    What you're feeling is normal. Just have to plug away and work through it.

LOL! But seriously, I'm with you!

    Hey guys, just wondering of any of my fellow Canadians are feeling the urge to eat everything in sight and bulk up for winter!!
    Seems everyone is always so afraid of gaining weight around Christmas, but for me, its October....the weather is starting to cool right off, im staying in the house more, gravitating towards the comfort foods...having Thanksgiving and all that yummy food, followed so closely by Halloween and all the treats has my will power shot all to hell! I lost 1lb comming into October and gained 3lbs comming out! Grrrr. Just wondering of any of you are having the same issue and any tips to fight it?!!! lol :P

    Okay so it snowed today. My reaction? Eat everything in sight. I think I must be part bear. As soon as I see evidence of old man winter, I start eating like crazy like I have to supply myself with a layer of fat. The only thing is that I don't stop eating and sleep all winter long. I just keep eating, sit on the couch in my warmest clothes watching TV. I don't know how to stop this cycle. I too want to lose weight this winter, not gain......
