Lose, Gain, Maintain?
I thought of this topic when I looked at the calendar and realized there are 6 weeks left in the year.
Do you plan to keep actively losing? Will you be happy to maintain or have a modest gain? Or is everything off the table till the first of the year and you'll start fresh in 2006?
As the holidays approach, what are your weight related plans?

Plus, I always get a burst of motivation around New Years... I don't know why, it's probably silly to take resolutions so seriously, but I do!

The goal will be to not overeat at holiday meals and to work on not letting each holiday spill into the weeks around it very much (only a day or two max) in order to minimize any potential damage.With a wedding coming up in April I can't let the holidays make my weight spike!

There aren't going to be many excesses around this holiday season to tempt this Little Red Riding Hood off the path.

But after that, I plan on either losing or maintaining (at the very least!) Christmas day is pretty much a free for all, but I plan on keeping it to christmas and christmas only. Thank fully I dont have many parties to go to this year. I'm like Dee - as long as I dont turn into a slob, I'll be happy.

I plan to kick up my training plan and prepare for two long distance races early in 2006. If I lose weight in the process that will help me with my endurance goals. I am going to continue to count calories and run. I hope to be down at least 20-30 pounds by April.
