Super Bowl

Every year around this time of year people are just starting to lose all of the weight they gained during the holidays or have already lost all of that weight. They feel really proud of themselves for keeping their new years resolutions for once and then it's time for the super bowl. Why the heck do people make resolutions to lose weight if in a couple of months they're just going to gain it all back? I think there is one main reason, and that's so that they can feel good about themselves for even just a short while. They lost that weight and feel like they've accomplished something in life so they're happy; so instead of deciding to stay healthy and be happy they think, Oh it's just one little occasion it won't hurt me. They end up eating more than planned and "run out of time" to exercise and lose all that weight and they're back where they started. So if society can stop making the super bowl such a big deal, then maybe, just maybe people will start keeping their new years resolutions to stay healthy.
