What's the plan going into Christmas? What are your strategies for staying focused on your health? I know my parents have a little surprise vacation planned for post-Christmas and it's stressing me out because none of my fat clothes fit anymore and I don't want to have to buy even fatter clothes.
I'd give anything to go back to when I was 158lbs and for the most part felt good about myself...the days where I could throw on my favourite jeans and a cute top and not feel like I looked like a whale. The days where I wanted to drop 10lbs to look leaner and feel good in a bikini, but otherwise was pretty happy with myself.

My strategy is to be hungry for Christmas meals so when I eat I will really enjoy it and won't feel tempted to stuff myself because I will enjoy the meal so much. That is what I did for Thanksgiving and it worked really well and my meal was soooo delicious.
Gymrat, I know what you mean. Maybe you could hit the thrift stores for some new clothes? you really will feel better in clothes that fit you, even if they are in a larger size.
