With today's holiday celebration, food becomes an even more significant issue for those whose objectives are weight loss. The key is to not allow a single day to prevent you from continuing with your program.

Remember what the holiday signifies--independence. How will you chose to declare you independence? Perhaps by taking control of your choices.
