So I gave in and weighed myself this morning, and honestly, I was pleasantly surprised: 157 is not bad post-holiday -- only two pounds up, which is less than last year's holiday gain, which I believe was a little more than 4 pounds. I will feel much better of course if I see the needle drop next week because then I'll know I have managed to get back on course before the end of January, which was my goal. Seriously, if I can go through the holidays with only a 2-pound gain, I'm quite satisfied. Next hurdle is going through my birthday month without more than a 2-pound gain at that point. This is a big birthday and I will likely be celebrated mightily by many. I'm going to have to get my exercise level up again to make sure that I don't see a big bump upward in my weight history chart. I am so much happier when I see that line headed downward, even if it is very very slow!
