WHY DO I SEEM TO GAIN WEIGHT DURING THE HOLIDAYS?

The answer may surprise you...

- Obligation. Friends and relatives sometimes insist that you test their tasty holiday concoctions, and if you don't, they will certainly be offended.

It's amazing how many calories that Aunt Mamie can pack into one innocent looking pecan tassie.

And if you should refuse to taste-test it for her, she'll jut out her bottom lip so far that an F-15 could take off on it with room to spare.

- Stress. Yes, the holidays can cause a calm man to go mad - all those jingling bells and goody smells sifting and ringing through the air.

- Acute happiness. Acute happiness comes in small increments. If we were acutely happy all of the time, we would explode, or turn into cartoon characters with big googly eyes. It just isn't possible to be acutely happy all of the time. In fact, being acutely happy all the time would make you unhappy. Nonetheless, when we experience acute happiness and joy, we tend to eat more freely, and without thought. We think, "I am acutely happy! I am filled with holiday joy and the spirit of the season! I feel so free! Life is free! Happiness is free! Joy is free! Even the calories in the 25 pound Black Forest Cheesecake that I just ate are entirely free!"

- Anxiousness. Waiting, waiting, waiting.... Waiting in the check-out lines at the market, at the retailers. Waiting in shopper's traffic on the highway. Waiting for the gifts to be wrapped. Waiting to open up the gifts. Waiting in line to return your gifts. Geeze....waiting can really get a body anxious! And during all of this waiting, we feel trapped. If there is a goody in sight, we reach for it!

- Holiday bills. Oh, this is so depressing that we won't touch more on this naughty, unthinkable subject. But rest assured, debt can trigger overeating.

In Summary

So now - when the holidays return, you're equipped with knowledge that will help you avoid overeating. Try to remember all of the above 'eating triggers'. Most importantly, don't forget to have fun during the holidays!
