5 Ways To Avoid The Festive 15

The holiday season is officially in full effect. Exciting, right? Nothing screams “fun” quite like the holidays, but do you know what’s not fun? The ‘festive 15’. For those of you who may not know, the festive 15 is very similar to the freshman 15. While the freshman 15 refers to the 15 pounds you gain during your first year in college, the festive 15 refers to the extra weight you put on every holiday season (which adds up over the years by the way!).
