It has been a longstanding quandary of sorts to question why the official "Holidays" don't extend out to the Monday after the Super Bowl. The part of the "Holidays" I'm referring to is the feeding frenzy that goes along with each family dinner, office party, open house or gathering of friends that is clustered between Thanksgiving night and final New Year's Day mimosa.

The overindulgence of drinking too many cosmos and eating crappy food doesn't stop when the last piece of confetti hits the ground in Time Square, it just slows down to a food coma-induced crawl and then BAM! it's football Sunday, and smack in the middle of the playoffs to boot.

So many of us have woken up these past three Mondays and diligently begun once again counting precious Weight Watchers points, shunning a hamburger bun in favor of a lettuce leaf and chugging gallons of water in hopes of a healthier, svelter and more attractive physique. New gym memberships peak and that neglected elliptical in the basement gets dusted off, oiled, and sees some usage for the first time in months. Intentions are good, weight loss goals are clear, and for most of this past December's resoluters, motivation is high. It all sounds like a game plan and as a collective whole, we truly want to flex our will-power fulled muscles for the long haul.
