5lbs so far...

LuluMai · 29/12/2012 14:58

I was already a fatty who overindulged so I don't think my Xmas indulgence has made much difference TBH!

McPie · 29/12/2012 15:15

I lost 3lb but I cant eat wheat or dairy so most of the fun things have not been eaten, I say most as I bought some really nice gluten free mince pies from sainsburys but made one pack stretch four days as they cost a bomb! Still surprised as I drunk three bottles of wine in the space of 24 hours Grin.

BigShinyBaubles · 29/12/2012 15:17

I'm too scared to weigh myself Blush
But I'm joining Slimming World on the 3rd jan so I don't give a shit what I eat from now until then!!

cynner · 29/12/2012 15:18

I can not say, except my maternity clothes are too small!

careergirl · 29/12/2012 15:22

i've put on, I know that because can't get in my jeans! I'll just get back on the healthy eating thingy and that will sort it not stressing too much

Sunnywithachanceofjinglebells · 29/12/2012 15:37

I think I'm about the same - thanks, revolting stomach bug!

AllYoursJingleBellbooshka · 29/12/2012 15:38

Nothing, all day morning sickness. :(

But next year I plan to be like a starving Gregg Wallace let loose in a French patisserie.

DH, however has discovered cranberry wensleydale cheese. Poor chap is traumatised by his arse growth in a such a small space of time.

Autumnchill · 29/12/2012 15:40

Put a couple of pounds on but managed to shift them. Have laid off the alcohol since Boxing Day so that I can feel comfortable in my posh frock on NYE. Thankfully family know not to get me chocolates for Christmas as I do SW. First weigh in tomorrow and see if I've managed to keep my 2012 resolution which was to end the year lighter than I started it!

ditavonteesed · 29/12/2012 15:46

I have lost 7lb since the middle of dec, dont know why, no effort involved just really not hungry anymore which is unlike me and freaking dh out a bit, he keeps offerinf me food and I keep replying nah not hungry.

SoggySummer · 29/12/2012 15:50

Oh FFS 11lbs!! All between my belly button and and my knees as well. I dont want to win the biggest Xmas bloater competition. Surely someone else must have put more on than me?????

I have had endless meal out with faimily friends pretty much every day since 19th.

Plus all the Xmas chocolates and Baileys and wine.

Looking at the Insanity DVD DH has brought home from deployment and dusting off my running shoes - just would like the puddles to dissapear so I can run and not paddle.

New Year still to go and someone else has just bought me a box of Baileys Chocolates that I love :0(

Borntobeamum · 29/12/2012 15:56

9lbs on but I'd lost 90lbs this year.
Will lose it again in 2013. X

IslaValargeone · 29/12/2012 15:59

Soggy, fret not, you are not the winner.

VicarInaTutuDrankSantasSherry · 29/12/2012 16:00

4lb here...ive not had a huge appetite but i suppose its the 'what' and not the quantity for me....ive been having cold meats with salad but lots of naughty things on the side like coleslaw, pork pie and cocktail sausages....oh and mince pies with brandy cream, too much wine, and baileys....

normally i only eat one meal a day. i should lose it again i reckon if im careful, and i really need to start running again.

Almostfifty · 29/12/2012 16:00

I've lost three pounds.

I'm off out tonight though, so will probably put that back on.

WorraLorraTurkey · 29/12/2012 16:00

I don't think I've put on any?

Then again I don't really tend to eat more at Christmas...just differently I suppose.

monkeyfacegrace · 29/12/2012 16:05

Not one day here.

Since Dec 1st Ive had 8 3 course xmas meals out, approx a bottle of wine per night, plus numerous cocktails.
Kebabs after said night outs, tins of chocs in one sitting, full cooked breakfasts, lots and lots of cheese and crackers.
Easily eating/drinking 5-6k cals a day.

crashdoll · 29/12/2012 16:05

I have been doing Slimming World for a couple of months. I had lost nearly a stone but gained 2.5lbs over Christmas. Back on the wagon though!

pointedlynoresolutions · 29/12/2012 16:25

No change - I don't like mince pies, for some reason haven't craved any of the chocs (possibly because we have so many sitting around?), haven't even wanted crisps of an evening and have not drunk more than usual either. Possibly this is because I've had to work the 24th, 27th and 28th.

I'm off the coming week but will be running around with the DDs - going swimming, shopping (with a nice lunch but lots of walking) and having a house blitz day which is good for burning stuff off.

I just don't tend to change my eating habits just because it's the festive season, don't know why...

Shellywelly1973 · 29/12/2012 17:04

I always lose weight at Christmas!

Ds has SN, 3 weeks of holidays are tough!

Disturbed nights&keeping him occupied never fail to make me lose weight!

MatureUniStudent · 29/12/2012 17:59

Soggy - Insanity DVD? is that one of those paid for TV presentations where blokes develop abs in places they didn't know they had?

akaemmafrost · 29/12/2012 18:28

About two or three pounds I think, jeans feel a bit tight, but I will do Zoe Harcombe induction for 5 days starting 2nd January and that will take care of that!

Glitterspy · 29/12/2012 18:33

I'm 34 weeks pg and I've put on about 2.5 stone since about July, 10 kilos in about the last 3 months... I feel huge and have got cellulite colonising my bum!

Imabadmum · 29/12/2012 18:38

I gave up smoking last May, and put on, wait for it, 3 STONE!!!

So 2013 is the year I get that off again, starting next week. Its off to slimming world for me.

coffeeinbed · 29/12/2012 18:46

a pound, i think.
Started cardio yesterday, haven't been doing anything in the last couple of months or so.
I walk a lot though. Up to 3 hours on a good day.
