    No point beating yourself up about it. Just 'get back on the horse' and start again today n

    I gained over 5 pounds over Christmas (it lasted till halfway through January due to when family arrived as well as 2 Birthdays) In 2 weeks of being back on track I have only about a pound to go to get back to my weight before Christmas.

    well think of it as something that's boosted your metabolism and get back to tracking your calories and slow and steady fat loss (slow and steady to keep your metabolism fast)

    I doubt you gained 7lb of pure fat. Probably some of it was water and glycogen. So don't stress.
