JUST FOR TODAY:  Don't worry about Holiday weight gain.  Love your body exactly as it is, right now, today.

The average American gains 10 pounds between Thanksgiving and the New Year.  Whether you are anorexic, bulimic, a binge eater, overweight or obese, a 10 pound weight gain can be difficult to handle.  Even if there is a medical reason that you have been advised to gain weight (i.e., anorexia, pregnancy), knowing that your body is getting bigger can be a challenge.  If you have noticed that the number on the scale is going up, be very loving towards your body.  Acknowledge that a pound or two (or even more) of weight gain is OK.  No one would really know that you've gained weight – except you and the scale (and anyone who might be weighing you).  Your body is the size that it is right now, and you can't instantly change it.  What you can change is how you see your body.  Do your best to see your body with loving eyes today, no matter what you weigh.
