Up 2.5lbs.... could be worse I suppose, no exercise for 3 days and not drinking as much water as I normally would!!! All I want to do is watch movies and eat rubbish
Im not worried because a week of lots of water, my workouts of sweat it will go.... I hope : )0 -
Lost 4 pounds o.O
I probably barely overate on christmas, didn't log, and kept to my normal workouts.0 -
Oh ya! I was off for a few days, and weighed myself two days ago and was up nearly six pounds! As of this morning, I'm only a pound away from being where I was before the holidays. Phew! I just went back to plan yesterday with lots of water, low sodium, and a thirty minute work out.0

Weighed myself this morning and I'm 2kg up :sad:
I'm not panicking (yet), I really didn't overeat that much - isn't it about 3,500 calories for every pound of fat? So that would be over 15,000 excess calories? I have logged right through the holiday and I think I probably only ate an excess of about 6000 calories, so I hope it's just water and glycogen that will drop off once my routine gets back to normal............please?0 -
I've maintained. Which I guess I should be happy about, but it's the time after my period when I usually lose, which means I won't lose more for 3 weeks. My main worry is going back on track at this point though and go back to losing vs maintaining.0

I'm too afraid to weigh myself yet... haha I'm actually planning on NOT weighing myself and getting back to all my usual eating and exercising and hope in a week or two when I finally gain the courage to weigh myself again, I won't even know how much I gained!
I quite like this plan!! I'm due to weigh in on Saturday the 4th as my first weigh in after the holidays - don't think it's gonna be pretty!0 -
I'm up 12 lb from the last time I weighed - but I've been pretty well off the wagon (in fact, couldn't even SEE the wagon anymore) till yesterday, and the last time I weighed was in November sometime. With relatives visiting, Thanksgiving, birthdays, multiple Christmas celebrations… yeah. I have no one to blame but myself, and I'm not whining. I know what I did to me, and I'm back to undo it - and I have a year to teach myself NOT TO DO IT AGAIN.0

I weighed in and gained 3lb, or so I think, my scales aren't always correct. Gained back those 3lb I lost but I'll lose them again. And this was from Christmas day and boxing day.0
-
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 :-(.
Same with me effing hate the water weight gain.0 -
Update to my earlier post, I lost 3.2#, vigilance paid off!0
-
I'm up 1 and have been doing horrible at logging in everything I eat. Finding time to workout has been annoying too with all these parties. I know its not going to get better until Jan 1 when all the holidays are over and life is back to normal.0
-
I had to put my ticker back to 0 lbs lost. Yep, 5 lbs gained. I did not eat much junk food and don't even keep it in the house. But I have indulged in beer and mixed drinks. It sucks to see a months worth of hard work go down the drain. But that's life. Will keep working towards my goal. :O)0
-
Gained a couple of pounds, but I think it was mainly due to salt intake and water retention...oh, and eating cookies, pies, and cake. Yeah, that did it.
Those two pounds are already gone thanks to going back to my regular eating pattern. No crash dieting of cleansing necessary.0 -
+12 lbs and + 3% bf ah well i REALLY ENJOYED all the great food0
-
Up by 4lbs. Didn't really eat that much but had waaaaay too much champagne and wine and nowhere near enough water. Back on it today. :-/0
-
I weighed last Tuesday morning (Christmas eve) before the two-day gorge, again on Friday morning, and today. 154.8 EVERY. TIME.
I'm so happy. I enjoyed all the goodies I wanted, but stuck to my maintenance principles:
Don't drink my calories
Eat a good breakfast, lots of protein
Do my regular workouts
Stop eating by 7pm.
Get plenty of sleep
Don't beat myself up0 -
update - weighed myself today and 3 pounds lost so must have been water retention etc. Panic over!!0
-
I gained 4lbs - more dissapointing i was going to the gym quite regularly the last 6-8 weeks and really building up fitness. I had managed a 1.5km run - last time i went (on the 28th) i managed 0.6km before stopping.
THERE'S SOME WORK TO DO!!0 -
I weighed this morning. It said 4 lbs. I KNOW I didn't over eat that much so i'm not worried.0
-
I weighed myself the day after Christmas and weighed 179, which is 9lbs heavier than what I was the last time I had weighed myself (the Friday before). Weighed myself this morning and I was back down to 171, which is within my normal maintenance zone of between 169 and 172.
I didn't log much and watched my portions, but I am sure I went over most days last week since I was on vacation and drank more alcoholic beverages than I normally do while not specifically cutting back on my food consumption.0 -
I went up 5 lbs, and it's incredibly depressing, but i'm trying not to lose my motivation. We've got goals, right? so, one step back then two steps forward. I'm trying to think about it as a conservative, path-independent force vector (which may not help if you're not into math or physics). it doesn't matter what the path looks like, only the beginning and end points.0
-
I was surprised to see that I had lost a pound from the last weigh in (about 1.5 weeks ago).0
-
Im up 6 lbs this last week. I really didnt overeat though but we went out to eat a few times and then christmas dinner, etc. Im pretty sure most is water weight.0
-
Thanks to the flu, I'm not only down the weight I had put on, but I've lost another half pound on top of that so I'm at my lowest weight so far as of this morning.0
