    Let's be realistic, it's something that happens only once a year, so I'm not avoiding any of the food you only get... well, now already. Yeah, unhealthy, yeah, portion control, yeah, weight gain, yeah, whatever about creating healthy habits. But I didn't get here just because I only overate during holidays, so I guess that mayyyyyybe 3kg (sorry, sounds worse than it is to make the math to convert to pounds lol).

    I expect to lose. I will eat a lot on individual days (Christmas, New Years and a few others) but will be right back at it the next day.

    I have no plans on gaining. Hopefully worst case scenario I will maintain my current weight. If not it would be great to reach my goal (9 pounds). I figure as long as I can keep my overeating holiday meals to just those holidays and keep up my normal mostly healthy eating and exercise, I should be able to maintain or continue to lose. BUT... it is also my first holiday season with my new lifestyle so we shall see! Good luck to everyone on this challenge!

    I expect any weight gained to be from water weight and it all to be limited to New Years Eve. It's the only night of the year we allow ourselves to drink an excessive amount of alcohol and I will not be counting my calories.
  • I'm hoping to stay on track and lose 7-8 pounds by Jan. 1 but I won't deny that it will be very difficult to stay the course.

    My weight loss has slowed down due to holidays and birthdays, but I don't anticipate gaining any weight. I do hope to be in the "healthy" range sometime in January.

    I'm still cutting- so I expect to maintain or lose.

    no gaining- because- I'm not bulking.

    I'm trying to be realistic and at this rate I'm going to try to limit the weight gain to one or two pounds... I did great last year but this year my willpower has dwindled by quite a bit!

    Anyone else?

    I'm not gaining weight. I'm still losing. I don't plan to gain, and if I plan my meals appropriately and make sure to fit treats INTO my goals (as I have been) than there's no reason to. Plan to fail, and you will.

    None, but I may go to maintenance for the last two weeks of the year. I've logged 28 weeks in my journey so far. Only 1 of them showed a gain, and I really don't want to have that experience again. Losing is much better :) That said, I do love the holidays and all the glorious food that comes with it that is often never seen the rest of the year. Maintenance calories (or just under) should allow me to sample everything, and include festive cocktails.

    I plan to lose 8-12 pounds by New Year's Day, getting me up to a total of 103-107 pounds lost, and 20-25 pounds from my final goal weight. I refuse to let a holiday season interfere with the plans I have made. No excuses, just results.
