It's the time of year that every dieter dreads: the holidays. In most people's minds, Thanksgiving is a holiday that seems invented solely for the purpose of stuffing yourself. That “giving thanks” business is nice, but it's the food we really look forward to every year.
Well I've got news for you: one of the many things you have to be grateful for is your health, and a holiday isn't a “get out of jail free” card to abuse it.

Losing weight (and keeping it off) is really about adjusting your lifestyle choices. Many people try crash diets to lose a few pounds before an important event, or to fit back into their jeans. But once the diet is over, the pounds come back on, and it can be overwhelming to start another diet once again.
Instead of moving from diet to diet, it’s time to get more in tune with your body, and make healthier choices. This requires a new perspective. Instead of focusing on those 10 or 20 pounds to lose, think of your body in terms of its health. You want to be able to move without your joints hurting. You want to be able to walk up stairs without getting winded. You want to be able to enjoy a glass of wine and some chocolate without feeling tremendous guilt.
