RELAX. It's not what you eat between Christmas and New Year that counts, it's what you eat between New Year and Christmas.

As a counter-point to the other post, Christmas is not "OVER" for many of us.

We are still celebrating with family, or live in countries where the celebrations continue for the rest of the week, or we just had plans to give ourselves a break in the time between Christmas and New Year. Relax. It's okay.

Weight loss is a life-long skill, not something that can be put off track by one week of bad eating. Even if you eat an extra 2000 calories PER DAY on top of your maintenance, you'll only gain 4 lbs in one week. That would not be the end of the world. And most of us won't even eat that much.

So if you are still celebrating Christmas, relax, enjoy, be mindful, and come back here in January to get back on the weight loss train!
