There is a common yearly weight-loss, weight-gain cycle. August is second to December in the rate of weight-gain, with September being second to January in weight loss. Why is that? Does this sound familiar?
Of course, December is #1 for weight gain - for four weeks, you are faced with holidays, gatherings, office parties, excess food, drink, and too many sugary items. Meanwhile, you’re thinking, “I’ll wait until January.” In August many people overindulge in barbecues, vacations and picnics thinking “I’ll get back on track in September.” Let’s take a look at what been deemed the common cycle of yearly weight loss-weight gain:

January: You make a resolution, and a promise to eat better, exercise, lose weight, drink water, eat vegetables, stop drinking... etc., etc.
February: You realize you have not kept your promises, or that you have made too many promises and it is unrealistic, and you fall back into old habits. March: You have the winter blues and you eat too many calorie-laden items waiting for the spring season to feel renewed again. April: Changes in weather begin to happen, days are longer and more daylight is welcomed. Once again you make a promise to think about losing weight. May: Spring is here bringing lighter clothing, and more outside activities. You want to lose weight, eat better, and exercise because you will be wearing less clothing in warmer weather. Your weight-loss resolve is back. June: BBQ and picnic season are here, and although grilling meat is a healthier way to eat, BBQ’s and picnics tend to offer salads loaded with mayo, chips and dips, carbohydrates, and fancy alcoholic drinks.

July: BBQ, beach, vacation and pool-side season is in full swing. Each offers an abundance of food and drink happiness. Your schedule and eating are more relaxed, leading to some overeating and drinking.
August: BBQ, beach, pool, and vacation season is still in full swing but as August days pass you think, “I’ll wait until September to pay attention to my eating again. It’s only a few more weeks.” In those weeks, with a give-up attitude, you once again begin to gain weight. September: Children and teachers are back in school, and you’re into a routine. You begin to care about your eating and exercise level again, and are recommitted to your health and weight loss. September is a month of renewal. October: Weather changes, there is less daylight, and the days get shorter. Every store you walk into has Halloween candy ready for impulse buying. You start Halloween early, eating candy the entire month of October and this begins to weaken your resolve again. November: You enter November having eaten too many sweets the weeks before. You start to plan for Thanksgiving, and by the time the holiday arrives you are busy with visiting family or family visiting, and Thanksgiving becomes an eating adventure. December: By now you have been overeating for a several weeks and it continues throughout the month with the holidays, gatherings, shopping, visiting, and everything else that takes place in December, and you say, “I’ll wait for January to care for my eating.”
Does this cycle sound familiar? It happens to the best of us - life and fun get in the way of achieving our desired goals. But, the KEY is to remain focused on what you are really after: a healthy body. If your focus is on looking like a super model, you will never get there if the yearly weight gain/weight loss cycle is familiar to you. Always remain aware of your desire to be healthy from the inside out and generally you will make better overall decisions.
