Right...just a quick check in before I head out the door to group (gulp!)

My guest blog post was published yesterday and the response has been amazing so I am feeling quite motivated for next year now!

Be back later with food diary ... Please... Not another gain this week! o_O
 
-2lb loss this week! :) Should soften the blow a bit for next week now...lol...

I'm going to try and be good...that said I have just had a large bowl of Shreddies! I was looking forward to a cooked brekkie but realised O/H forgot my sausages when he did the shopping, so I sulked and had Shreddies instead.

Took some mince out for a SW Spag Bol later. I am going to try and be as good as possible until Christmas Eve now. Off for some more sleep before work tonight :)
 
Thanks Britt :)

My plan has gone to s*$£! already...lol... Honestly, I'm not going to beat myself up about it, it is what it is. I'm really not feeling Christmas at all this year...I get the feeling for like 5-10 mins every few days! ..lol.. I usually LOVE Christmas, but part of me just wants it done and dusted now tbh.

So yesterday after brekkie :)oops:) I was good tea wise and at work. But work was horrendous last night, retail and Christmas ain't fun at the best of times. I had planned on a cooked breakfast of some description when I got in, but I was absolutely shattered...so made a coffee (with sugar) and 3 rounds of toast! :eek: before heading to bed. I've had 2 Bailey's Coffee's with sugar, 2 packets of crisps and a mince pie since I got up at 12.30. So....I will still be taking fruit to work etc, but my meals are going to be whatever until quite possibly New Year now. So as I'm not going to be on plan I doubt I will be around much until I pick up the pieces again so I will take this opportunity to wish you and yours a very Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year!

See you next year where it is well and truly game on for me! :) x
 
Hiya all...hope you all had a good Christmas. I'm back with my tail between my legs..lol... 7 days of eating and drinking what the hell I wanted and weighed back in with a 6lb gain..:oops::oops::oops:..lol... I knew it was coming. So back on it as of today....
 
Hi, don't worry about the 6lb gain, a lot is likely to be water retention from the drinking and I bet most will be off again by next week.
New year's eve is going to be my next challenge as I'm going for an Indian and some drinks but going to try and go for the lighter options!
Good luck for some great losses.
 
Thanks chick... I am hoping some of it definitely is. TMI now, but I've hardly been to the loo either, I think the only fruit I have had has been in the form of a mince pie or slice of Christmas cake..lol..
Enjoy New Year...I usually still get losses when I have a Indian...I just flexi syn to allow for it so as long you don't go mega mad you should be fine
