    I didn't manage to gain back the 5 kilos I lost the first week of December.

    Surprisingly I didn't gain at all. I ate like a pig too.
    I figured I gain at least 5 but I guess not :bigsmile:

    I only went up .5 lbs (just because its a larger quantity of food than I'm used to having in my stomach), but I'm back down about a pound now. On Xmas I wound up having about 1,300- 1.400 cals, so I know I didn't gain any fat.

    For me, I indulged but I also worked out. I went to Zumba Christmas Eve morning (a normal Saturday class), walked the treadmill Christmas night, ran on the treadmill yesterday morning, and then went to Zumba again tonight. I manage to lose 1.5 lbs since my last weigh in. So right now I'm feeling pretty good about things. The most important thing is that I had the most wonderful Christmas with both my family and my future in-laws! I'm definitely blessed.

    I am planning on weighing in tomorrow. I just couldn't bring myself to do it any sooner since I knew it would be up and I am already mad at myself for the weight I have gained since Halloween-ish time. I could have eaten way worse than I did on Christmas but once I started drinking beer my hands started creeping towards the snacks more lol. Luckily, I sat myself in front of the veggie/fruit platter and had a craving for sweet so was chowing down on grapes. THEN the family decided to move the food around the table so the cheese and crackers came my way. Bad news! I enjoyed myself and was eating well leading up to it and these past few days and really got extra exercise in so I am not too worried.

    I gained 1.8lbs. Well, that is what the scale reported. However, it could be sodium or TOM. I will see next Tuesday.

    up1.3kg since saturday morning weigh in...

    Yeh its disspointing to see on the scale, but i planned to not deny myself over the 2 day period.. Most of my calories were consumed with alcohol.

    Christmas day food choices were healthy and was not tempted by "treats", however on boxing day I PLANNED to cut lose a bit..

    I enjoyed desserts & other FORBIDDEN foods. But still only had 1 or 2 bites, as opposed to slices!!!

    The day after boxing day, I found myself back on track and back to the gym..

    My Official weigh in is friday, so im hoping i can bring that number down a bit!!!

    I figure christmas is once a year and I planned to enjoy it.. and I did...

    I don't think I gained any real weight. Yesterday was a my first day back on track, I weighed in the morning and I was 1.9 lb up, but this morning, I am only up 0.4lb, and I think that is going to leave. I'm pretty sure it was all water weight from what I ate. Which is pretty damn good. I ate like crap for 4 days, but judging by the scale I must not have eaten above maintenance. I'm one happy person right now!!

    I either lost or maintained. I did not weigh in the week before due to TOM bloating. I was down a pound.
