I stick to my plan which I heard at WW a few years ago: eat what you like on the Holiday’s but all the other days in between stick to your healthy lifestyle.

I will keep on exercising from now on till December 31th. I’m having a vacation from December 24th till January 3th and I’m looking forward to exercising in the morning.

I have a run planned on December 31th, nice way to end this year!

We can do it!

A plan is a great idea. I have an exercise plan between now and the end of the year, but thanks to this post I realize I need to work on a food plan. I survived halloween without any halloween candy and feel good about that.

This is a great post. I am doing the Hot 100 Challenge offered at Steve’s blog (www.logmyloss.com)to help me stay on track these last two months. It’s not easy, but doable.

I love your idea of having only a few specialty coffee drinks in the cafe to make them more memorable. I might have to make myself do that this season.

Also, love the idea of pumpkin in Cream of Wheat!!

This is a great idea, Lori. Just hard to do! My birthday is between Thanksgiving and Christmas. And as Juice calls it, it is my ‘birthday season.’ I don’t have too much trouble going overboard, but to plan for specific treats…I’ll have to think about that!

The holidays are always a challenge, but Thanksgiving is the worst one of all. My wife's family, as well as my own, really enjoy cooking, and boy can they cook great. I don't have a plan yet, but it is time to be making one. .-= South Beach Steve´s last blog ..Motivation for Monday – Just for You! =-.

I struggle with my birthday which is at the end of the month.

A lot of people want to take me out and feed me…I have already let a few know that it is not necessary this year.

I will have a special dinner with BF and one with my family (if I combine them it would be even better, just less romantic).

I will have a team lunch at Christmas and that is about it. I don’t celebrate Christmas and don’t go anywhere on the day so no worries for me.

I will not hesitate to indulge in some good dark chocolate if it happens to be around.

Great post Lori!

I’m a little nervous about the upcoming holiday season. I’ve done pretty well with not going overboard, but the last few weeks I’ve struggled a lot. And I’m really hoping that I’m not going to lose it!

I cannot thank you enough for this post today! I have had the "I am too busy and will be for a while to fool with doing anything for myself" mentality for over a month already, and saw no end in sight. Maybe reading (and re-reading) your post will slap me around back to where I need to be and where I deserve to be! Thanks : ) .-= Pam´s last blog ..Randall's Turn! =-.

I’m planning to maintain my weight through the holidays. I’ll have treats but not too many!

Amen to eggnog stuff. I love it! I make eggnog cheesecake, bunt cake, milkshakes, ect…I can usually avoid the lattes because our Starbucks always scorches them. Always!
