I started with Nutella pancakes with berries and a coffee for breakfast. Ds had requested this for Xmas breakfast and it sounded good to me too!

Lunch was about 1:30. We had a started of creamy mushrooms on toasted sourdough. Then turkey and all the trimmings. I ate loads. Dessert an hour or so later was a chocolate pudding.

Had a big plate of cheese, crackers, grapes and nuts just now while watching Netflix and will finish the night off with a cup of tea and some fancy M&S chocolate biscuits.

Absolutely overdone it and I do plan to eat better in the new year but for today....fuck it! What have you had?

Breakfast: bacon butty on thick tiger bread, with coffee and orange juice.

Lunch: Roast turkey, stuffing, roast potatoes, carrot and turnip, mushy peas, sprouts, pigs in blankets, gravy and cranberry sauce.
For dessert: Christmas pudding with cream and toffee and pecan roulade.

Snacks: a "handful" of Heroes, a mini gingerbread house and I'm currently scoffing a tube of Jelly Tots and eyeing up a box of 60 Party Rings.... While wondering how I've managed to put on a stone of the four stone I'd lost since last year 🤔

Greek yoghurt with some thawed out berry mix and coffee this morning

Turkey with everything (including cauliflower cheese & yorkshire pudding) at 3.30ish and Christmas pudding with cream about an hour later

A cup of tea with few Celebrations and a pear - I haven't felt much like chocolate today

Am just going to have some cheese and apple with a few crisps and leftover cheesecake in front of Gogglebox 😊

I think that really at this point it’s more a case of what haven’t I eaten today 😁

GooglyEyeballs · 25/12/2022 22:06

We started with smoked salmon, scrambled eggs on sourdough toast and orange juice. Then had biscuits, cakes and picky bits available all day but I didn't eat much because I've a cold that's killed my appetite.

Then we had full on Christmas dinner with everything you could imagine followed by apple crumble or chocolate mousse, cheese board or chocolate Yule log. I only finished half my dinner and had a few jammy dodger biscuits for dessert. :( My appetite is so pants and I've only had one glass of wine. Definitely have not been the life and soul today!
