The festive season doesn’t have to derail your hard-won progress. In this Mini Micropedia, Mikki unpacks why holiday weight gain (often ~0.45–1.0 kg) tends to stick around and which habits most often tip us off track—overcommitting, grazing instead of meals, early “holiday mode,” and a bit too much booze. She lays out a practical plan: prioritise sleep, ring-fence training (and rack up NEAT—aim ~8,000+ steps), keep protein front and centre, and use calorie cycling with planned indulgences (hello, PSMF structure) to enjoy social events without spiralling. You’ll learn simple boundary-setting scripts, environment hacks to reduce temptation, and mindset shifts—discipline over willpower, self-compassion over perfectionism—to carry you into January feeling calm, in control, and confident. Mikki also shares details of the Mondays Matter Christmas Edition—on sale now, doors close Sun 9 Nov, programme kicks off Mon 10 Nov.
