So much has changed this year regarding business and our personal lives. First, we want to thank all of you who have followed us on our journey. In this episode, we discuss all the current changes and then go in-depth about staying healthy, present, and stress-free during the holidays.
For decades, the conventional wisdom has said that most people gain around five pounds between Thanksgiving and New Years. The good news is that the five-pound pile-on is overblown.
The New England Journal of Medicine published a study of adults that showed that the average holiday weight gain was .37 kilograms or just under a pound. In addition, more than half the people in the study stayed within a kilogram, or just over two pounds, of their other weigh-ins.
Generally, people are eating out more at dinner parties and events and drinking more alcohol — and are sleeping less, which typically contributes to weight gain.
We urge our listeners to relax and enjoy themselves during the holidays. This will be our final episode for 2021, and we will be back at the beginning of next year.
