Happy New Year lovely ladies! I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and New Year. Or, as the one card from a distributor said: Happy Everything!
I gave up eating healthily, weighing in and logging; I didn't intend to but soon realised that I had to give in. I just enjoyed the bad foods and the alcohol and the fact that I didn't have to do anything. It was amazing. All I know is that I didn't get back to 12 stone (168lbs), which was my main goal once I gave up logging. The highest weight I have seen is 167.2lbs. And I am ready for healthy again. Someone fetch me a salad!
First goal of 2018: Tone up further and treat myself to a new bikini in time for our early March holiday to Lanzarote.
I will weigh on Wednesday but I tell you now, it won't be pretty. Anyway, it's a New Year and time to continue our journeys. None of this 'New Year New Me' crap, just a plain old continuation. Gave up over Christmas? That's fine. Breaks are fine. As long as we look after ourselves outside of those breaks. And we do.
Keep on keeping on!

If you feel bad about anything, my diet today consisted of:
Pepernoten (cinnamon spiced biscuit bites)
Paprika Crisps (Lays, my favourite crisps EVER)
Oliebollen (Deep fried dough balls)
Brie
3/4 of a bottle of Champagne
Two chocolate truffles (indulgent)
Full fat hazelnut cappuccino
Tomorrow we're back on the chicken breast, homemade guacamole and other healthy stuff. I CANNOT WAIT!5 -

@rianneonamission great words from you and your diet described was a lot like mine was yesterday (I had the hangover from hell). I haven't weighed myself yet. Dreading it so going to leave it a few days more. In the meantime got tons of revision to do for exams coming up in two weeks This is a real danger time for me due to the boredom factor which food resolves- but then leaves me feeling rubbish. I've been eating far more crap since after Christmas day for this reason but now its the New Year going to make a proper effort to try harder, so crudites, lots of water etc to get me through the next two weeks.
anyway Happy New Year everyone, here's to good health and much happiness in the year ahead.3 -

Nice work @tiinytorii and @Go_Deskercise! Excellent result for a holiday period!
Welcome @jbowens78 and @RobinAlex666! You’ve found the right group and thread for accountability. We have losers (most of us), maintainers and bulkers!
I told my PT I hated him tonight
. He pushed me to my limit which has reduced significantly and made me sweat like a pig in a slaughterhouse. Mind you, I’ve been very good today in terms of food, so am kind of looking forward to weigh in tomorrow. I know it won’t be amazing, but it will help me get focussed and set some goals for January. 2 -
Mine has crept back up. We have a big family wedding out of state in a month and a half so I'd like to get rid of some bloat and trim a bit before then but the big goal is to be in the 120s by summer and hit goal weight by my birthday in Aug.

Planning to focus on food right now and yoga/indoor stuff since it's freezing and then move back into running and training by the end of Feb.3 -
Going aggressive this month. I have eaten so much crap and unsurprisingly my body was craving healthy things yesterday. Also first PT session of the year. He was an evil *kitten* so I told him I hate him all in jest.
The worst number I have seen on the scales between Christmas and New Year was 167.2lbs. Luckily I am back down now to 165.4, which is the same as the start of December. As far as I'm concerned that is decent damage limitation.

Went over my maintenance calories by about 400 kcal during NYE, but stuck to my goals otherwise. I have not really been able to do workouts over the last couple of days, but from today on everything should be back to normal. Really happy to be able to get back to it!2 -

Hello Ladies! I am coming back after a couple months off. I unfortunately went dark on MFP for 2 months after getting an incredibly bad bout of pneumonia that spiked my fever to 102 Fahrenheit, bottomed my weight out to 119lbs from 124lbs in the course of a week and a half, and saw me collapse in front of my entire class while presenting a research project. *Face Palm* I am feeling sooo much better now, and am ready to get back into the weight loss game!
After my illness I allowed myself to eat pretty much anything over Thanksgiving and New Years so my weight is already back up to around 130lbs, and my goal is to press back down to 122-124lbs. I will start my weigh-ins on Saturday and am happy to come back to this loving, supportive community. I'm excited to see so many old faces, and a bunch of new ones as well!

I've been very ill the last two months with respiratory issues. Due to my severe asthma even a common cold will knock me on my butt.. However, I am well enough now to get back in shape. Here's to a productive January!3 -

I've been off/on MFP for years now. 2017 was mostly off. My biggest challenge is that I used to run in my free time, whenever I had it. I had a running bag in my car at all times. This made it possible to squeeze in a few more workouts each month. Alas, in July/August I got plantar fasccitis (sp?) and my heel still hurts. No running and a bunch of life happening resulted in a near 10lb gain this year. Ouch.
In the last month or two, I've learned that spinning can replace the runs (though it has to be scheduled). So I'm trying to start the post-holidays by getting back into a schedule that includes spin classes & Piyo.
Would love to add some MFP friends ... hit me up. I need all the inspiration/support I can get.

Happy 2018 everyone!
December was not a great weight loss month for me, but it was a good month overall, so I'm good with it. I think my goal for January will be just to get back down to where I was at the start of December
A big priority for me is going to be just eating well. Everything in my life is better when I eat well and I want to embrace that as much as I can.
So back to it. I'm really enjoying yoga right now so I want to put some time toward that. Yoga and good food, that's pretty much my plan in it's entirety.
Wish me luck all!6 -

Not too bad weight loss this week, only really been properly tracking again since Tuesday. Feeling like I’m getting a cold though hoping it’s nothing too bad so I can keep on with my exercising.
