I feel like an over-stuffed sausage

[Hekii]

I think the body has a certain number of fat cells, and when you put on weight the cells fill up with fat until they can’t fit any more, then they make new fat cells.

I feel like all my fat cells are fit to bursting.

I hate the endless availability of indulgent food in the run up to Christmas and I hate my inability to resist it. I dread to think what damage I’ve done.

The last time I lost a chunk of weight was starting on Boxing Day two years ago when I also felt like this. I was heavier then, I haven’t bounced all the way back, but it was starting to creep that way. So I’m cracking on again tomorrow.

It’s more bloating than fat, you can’t get fat overnight from eating on Christmas Day even though today I feel like a well stuffed sausage, by tomorrow morning it will no doubt have gone down some.

Yeah, definitely was feeling bloated from the day, but the run up to Christmas seems to involve so many extra treats floating around. I did pretty well but the last week or so I basically gave up. And it goes on so much more quickly than it comes off, it’s depressing.

Just hoping that I can tap into the post Christmas/January fresh start vibe now.
