    who cares, easy come easy go !

    - it is not rocket science how I managed it, and no one can accuse me of being a bah humbug and party pooper over the festive season !

    the day after Christmas I was up 4 lb but I weigh today and that was all gone my official day to weigh is Monday so I will see what king of loss I will get with my calories on Christmas iam only gong to average a 200 to 400 a day average defict for the week so I will be happy with just staying the same if I lost that's just a bonus as I ate whatever I wanted on Christmas and drank on Christmas eve.

    Yes....I put on 4.6 pounds, putting me back in the next higher up weight bracket (I was at 348 before Christmas, now at 353). It was also my period this week, so I knew I was going to gain some. But at least it wasn't too bad! :)

    Im going to buck the trend here, I actually lost weight over the Christmas week oh the joys of working nights and not being able to drink. For me because I only have a flat Christmas meal alcohol is the kicker no over eating of yummy yummy food.

    I know there are others who would say "make it fit into your eating plan," but for me the answer is: throw or give it away. And then keep your food scale on the counter for a couple of days so you can log everything precisely.

    there's so much bloody food in the house!! :-(
    ^^^ This, +1,000,000!!!
    What was meant to be one or two days of over eating has now turned into 4 days! So I've decided I'll have ONE more day then start totally afresh on Monday. Hopefully by then I'll have ate everything I could want, and not feel too bothered about all the food in the house. Weighed every morning since Christmas Eve (I know), and fluctuated about 6lb.

    I was worried about gaining from all the christmas food. I finished 1 round tin chocolates , 1 small box of chocolates and a small packet of chocolates plus biscuits an crisps. I was about 65ish only went up to 66.5. Not too bad as I thought it would be. I've been drinking so much water each day I don't know if the water helped although I haven't eaten that much waking up late skipped breakfast occasionally. An before christmas the month I wasn't eating any chocolates or sweets, crisps etc. There's not too much left now. There is a tin unopened think I'll give it a miss.

    So my mother in law was given the $100 basket of chocolate. 5lbs of handmade milk and white chocolate from Harry and David. She is a marathoner. She gave it to my husband, a runner and biker. He handed it to me to take to coffee break after Mass at St Mary's. unopened, untouched. When I asked if he wanted to sample it first he quoted Dirty Harry ...."A man has got to know his limitations". Take all those leftovers to church or work or throw them away.

    I put on two but -- TMI alert-- my period's due in a few days. I'm really hoping it melts off after that, especially since I've been pretty much plateau'd since Thanksgiving :-(.
