The holidays are officially here and it comes with all the trimmings - cakes, cookies, alcohol and merriment. The only thing standing between us and the requisite holiday 10 lbs is careful planning and a dollop of will power. Following these tips over the next few weeks will keep you jolly in spirit, but not in stature, right into the New Year. 

Tip #1 Keep your current workout routine consistent. Consistency is your ally at any time of the year, but it is especially important when the threat of rogue calories is on the horizon. If you don't have a workout routine, start one. Waiting until after the New Year is just an excuse to be nutritionally negligent. Besides, didn't you say the same thing last year?
