Right now I'm participating in a challenge at my workplace. Everyone puts $10 into a pool and makes a commitment to not gain more than 1.5 lbs over the holiday season. If you gain, you lose your money. If you maintain, you get a share of the spoils. Money is a great motivator! Great list of suggestions! Right now I’m participating in a challenge at my workplace.

You need to reward yourself for doing good things and it's OK to be human and enjoy yourself every now and again. But yes, the hardest thing is to get back on the wagon again. I guess that's why so many of us are frightened to step down off it occasionally. Marking it on a clearly visible calendar (and sticking to it!) is a great idea. This one needs sharing. I'll have to Stumble it. I like the way you think Anne-Marie. You need to reward yourself for doing good things and it’s OK to be human and enjoy yourself every now and again.

It found that although people often think they have put lots of weight on over the festive season (christmas in the case of this research), it is actually on average only about a pound. The problem comes after, in that people often don't shift it during the year in time for the next round of feasting. Interesting I thought!
