Christmas....

[shrinkingannie]

what is your aim for the festive season:

stick to plan 100%
one day flexi syns - christmas day
a few days off
the whole season off - start again in the new year??

I think ill aim for a few days being a bit more indulgent but not going crazy - and doing lots of exercise!

 

[marmaduke]

I think I'll do what you are doing and go for a few days of having a few treats and not worrying about sticking to plan too much but will try not to go mad!

 

[Fluffygirl]

I also think I will try and do the same, a few days off, but not eating too many snacks and have breakfast as normal, then not worry too much over lunch and dinner for a few days. And also lots of exercise also

We're going to stay with family for a holiday over the Xmas period. We'll be gone for 12 days. I aim to enjoy myself without going crazy and repair any damage after, when I get home.

 

[LittleMissCupcake]

same here!
i plan to enjoy myself but not go stupid and undo all my hard work over the last few months!!
I will try and limit my alcohol i think as its my biggest downfall when im drunk i keep drinking more and then get the munchies!!!!!!!!

[missclare85]

to be honest every year i say i wont go mad i wont go mad an each year i put a shocking 7-9lb on!!!
I will try my very best not to go mad just have crimbo eve and crimbo day and then new years eve!
Lets see what happens!!!

xx

 

[Ninja]

Last year I went away for crimbo and missed one WI. When I came back I'd put on 3lb, which over 2 weeks I don't think is too bad. I got straight back on the wagon and I'd lost the same 3lb by the following week.

This will be my first ever xmas on a diet! I'm going to eat until I die on xmas day, drink far too much and then go back on plan 100% until new years eve, or the day after boxing day if there's lots of leftovers lol. I'm spending syns on booze and buffet food on NYE! Then back on 100%! I'm pretty sure my main meals will be SW friendly it's just all the chocolates and stollen cake that won't be

Anyone know the syns in stollen? Hearing it now might put me off buying it

 

[squiddie]

I'm going to go mad. I've been about 80% since May, so I'm on a mission to be perfect until Christmas then I'm having the 24th, 25t and 26th off to go crazy, I refuse to feel guilty!

What are 3 days a year in the rest of your life! Well 5 days if you include 31st of December and 1st January as I've got a New Years party planned.

I mean I'm not going to eat for the sake of it, but I am going to eat what I want!

 

[Julianne_julz]

I'm going to go by meals.so unless we're having something for Xmas dinner, or at family's on Xmas eve/boxing day,I'm going to make sure I have totally free meals. No junk between. Then I can have what I want for a few meals. I'm dreading our dinner out (on 19th, booked by family, totally fatty food) being veggie I got one choice, lasagne with fries! And Xmas pudding! Eeeek! I don't even want to go!! X

 

[vowles]

Im going to have a few days off but not go crazy!!

 

[eternity]

I'm having Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, Boxing Day and NYE off.
I hope not to go too mad, but I'm going to have whatever I want on those days.

 

[jerricebenton]

Im only having xmas day off, and having a bagel & Philly for breakfast, then the full works for xmas dinner. Apart from that, I am going to stick to plan.

 

[Devon Dolce]

I think I'll be OK (ish) on Xmas Day but Boxing Day I'm going off plan - open house at Mum's and the cheese board, wine and port is to die for! xx

 

[minn_82]

Im having Christmas Day and Boxing Day off plan. Though if im being honest I find Christmas food sooo rich that I dont pig out on it as much as I would just random junk in my cupboards. If I gain then it should just slip off again when I go back to eating the SW way. You have to enjoy your life at the same time.

 

[Sarah-Jayne]

My aim is to loose as much as i can before xmas and then eat what i want over xmas and try not to go above 10st.

 

[Esme]

I'm just going to take it 'a day at a time', if I am offered something and I want it, I won't refuse, but will try not to go mad.
*has visions of myself sitting next to the chocolates with a pint of Bailey's in my hand*
Even if I do put on, we all know that we CAN lose it again, so don't worry about it too much!

 

[natasha1974]

i have to go to my mothers and she always goes way over the top on the food front every thing from M&S tins of roses etc tons of alcohol then back home the day after for brother in laws 40th birthday im being 100% till xmas eve then will try not to drink and eat to much lol

 

[jaylou]

it's just all the chocolates and stollen cake that won't be

Anyone know the syns in stollen? Hearing it now might put me off buying it

As a rough idea

Marks & Spencer Stollen Cake Slices 87.5g slice

16½ Syns on Extra Easy

Original 16½ Syns
​

I'm buying the M&S luxury stollen, goodness knows how many will be in that!

 

[Hayleyj123]

I plan to have flexi syns on the main days and then stick to the normal amount every other day. If I gain a few lb, I won't worry too much because it will be worth it xx
