Down & Up in numbers; Up & Down in satisfaction

Dang the holidays! The wonderful holidays with the fabulous food that is too tempting to turn down! A goal of mine this year was to lose 36 pounds. I started working on the goal in January, then I quit. Then I started working on it again in June. And as of October, I'd lost 17 pounds. I was encouraged by the fact that I was almost half-way to my weight-loss goal. Then Halloween hit. And with the post-Halloween food (pictured below), I've already gained 5 pounds back! And with Thanksgiving and Christmas and New Years coming, I don't think I'm going to have the courage (the courage to say no to good food), in order to make my goal-weight this year! Dang these delightfully delicious holidays!!!
