I ate way too much on Christmas and New Year and now I'm getting back on track again. I'm a little discouraged cause I feel I gained weight. I know I can't give up. Let's start it again!

    So did I :drinker:

    Just get back into it. Don't over restrict or ever exercise, just shoot for your regular deficit and do your usual amount of exercise.

    Me too. Back here again. No more booze left in the house so that should help! Still got stollen, panettone, a couple of boxes of chocolates and a selection of cheeses to get through but going to log.

    Pretty sure everyone did that.

    No big deal, it's only a couple days out of your whole life. Now get back on track with logging & calorie goal & exercise.

    Same story here. Back to tracking and eating under 1,700 calories today... and it's so hard! My body quickly got used to eating like crap again.

    I got off track once I had surgery in Sept and eat way too much over the next few month. December rolled around and everything went out the window, with all the cooking of sweets that I did. I still have over 10 dozen cookie dough balls in the freezer. I will make a few for dessert for us over the next few months, I will not give up my desserts just have to count them in is all.

    Me too...in regards to the big picture, it's pretty irrelevant.

    Basically December is a continuous long feast for us. I try to hit the gym as much as possible and save up calories for the party's that I know are unavoidable.
    BUT..I like to enjoy the holidays, and deserve the treats after working hard.

    It's in the past now. Put it behind you and get back to your routine. A few days (or weeks) of overeating will not destroy all of your progress unless you let it make you discouraged and complacent.
