Yep! For Christmas this year, I bought myself "The Firm" workout tapes and some weights.

I have a Bowflex in the garage, but it's getting too cold to workout there in the mornings... well, maybe not actually too cold, but cold enough to affect my motivation.

Anyway, my gift to myself is to be able to workout in the warm, snug house this winter, instead of in the cold garage.

And, as always since I started this WOE, I buy a few more Low Carb candies and goodies this time of year, so I won't be too tempted by all the sugary stuff out there!

Not too much has changed for me this time of year now that I eat low carb. Generally I would have been a preferred customer at See's Candy, what with all the truffles I used to buy and munch on throughout the month of December but I've not had a one since I started low carbing again in October.

Usually I am a huge junkfood baker around the holidays but I've postponed it as long as possible this year. I AM going to make some caramel corn and probably a few cookies to have for non low carbers who insist that eating veggie trays and meat and cheese platters is NOT a holiday treat but, hey, they have to choose for themselves to LC. I won't have any of those things, though. Actually, in reading through some of the recipes in Atkins for Life last night, I have decided to make the Holiday Yule Log so I might even get a sweet treat, too.

All in all, save for my eating habits, nothing has changed, though.
