A full hour of the best weight loss and wellness wisdom ever, peppered with laughs, giggles and chortles.<br \/>\nOne of the best of the gleeful chuckles occurred when we were talking about my infamous and most popular Beliefnet special gallery post &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/Health\/Weight-Loss\/2008\/09\/The-Best-Stay-Fat-Strategies.aspx\">What&#8217;s Your Stay Fat Strategy<\/a>?&#8221;<br \/>\nSometimes, people have to see the picture of failure before they can be motivated toward success!<br \/>\nTongue-in-cheek style, today, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ourladyofweightloss.com\">Our Lady of Weight Loss<\/a> and Janice Taylor <em>(that&#8217;s me)<\/em> give to you &#8230;<br \/>\n<strong>&#8220;10 Stay Fat Holiday Diet Tips&#8221;<\/strong><br \/>\nthat are guaranteed to help you succeed in NOT losing weight!!!<br \/>\n1. <strong>GO HUNGRY!<\/strong>  Studies show that we eat faster and more when we are hungry, so if you&#8217;ve got a party or an event to go to, go hungry!<br \/>\n2. <strong>SUPER-SIZE!<\/strong>  The bigger your portion, the better.  Seriously folks, this could be your last supper!<br \/>\n3. <strong>EAT FAST!<\/strong>    It takes twenty minutes for the brain and the stomach to communicate with each other, sending the &#8220;I am Full&#8221; signal.   Those first twenty minutes are prime eating time.  Take advantage of them.<br \/>\n4. <strong>STAND!<\/strong>  There&#8217;s no point in sitting down and eating like a &#8216;lady&#8217; or &#8216;gentleman.&#8217;  Whether you are standing, walking, running or sitting, it doesn&#8217;t matter, as long as you keep on eating!<br \/>\n5. <strong>DO THE HALF THING!<\/strong>  Eat Half of the Pie.  Half of the Turkey.  Half of the Ham.  Half of the Stuffing Casserole.  Save the other half for later!<br \/>\n6. <strong>DRINK!<\/strong>  Alcohol is known to lower one&#8217;s inhibitions.  So drink, loosen up, and have yourself a ball!<br \/>\n7. <strong>THE FORK TRICK!<\/strong>  Instead of dipping the fork in the salad dressing and then into the salad, load your fork with a nice hefty couple of pieces of lettuce and then dip it in the dressing until it is drenched in heavy oil!<br \/>\n8. <strong>COVET thy neighbor&#8217;s food.<\/strong>  Always check out your friends&#8217; and neighbor&#8217;s plates.  See what they are eating and need be, pick off their plates!<br \/>\n9. <strong>ANYTHING CHOCOLATE!<\/strong>  Chocolate can act as a mood booster.  Happy, Happy, Happy!<br \/>\n10. <strong>LEFTOVERS<\/strong>!  Makes sure that you save some of the leftovers for a late night snack.   You definitely want to end your happy stay fat evening on a fat note!<br \/>\nWhat are some of your STAY FAT this HOLIDAY DIET TIPS?
