Summary:
Researchers followed 195 people to see how much weight they gained around the holidays
Mean weight increased about 1 pound during the holidays (mid Nov.-Jan.)but not during preholiday (from late September) or postholiday (to early March)
There was no significant change in weight from February or March to September or October
Conclusion: Average holiday weight gain of about 1 pound is less than the commonly asserted 5 pounds, but it doesn't go away later.
