Be your own best coach
An inexpensive scale (not more than $50) and graph paper can halt the steady ballooning of your waistline, say Cornell University researchers. They plotted daily weight readings of 16 women on charts — providing visual feedback that helped their subjects avoid weight gain; 16 others added 6.8 pounds over the same 12-week period. Researcher David Levitsky, PhD, advises: Get on the scale at the same time every day and plot the numbers on graph paper. If you see that the line's moving up, trim some calories.
This is a really good piece of advise, and I encourage you to either grab a piece of graph paper or if you prefer track your progress online by getting this widget and track your progress like I do in my sidebar.

That's what it is all about. Let's get a handle on it before all the holiday parties and dinners. Yikes, you know how crowded everywhere is during the holidays especially the gyms afterwords. I hope you walk with me and track your steps as well.
Let's do it!!!
