We wish you a slender Christmas and a happy New You: the Slenderistas try not to gain 7lbs in December

[BitOutOfPractice]

It’s that time of year again when mince pies attack and the baileys is calling.

Trying to stay on the wagon is easier when you ihave the Slenderistas on your side

Link to November thread here

So when are we all getting back on the wagon then? 1st January? Feeling a bit nervous as my eating ecstasy is nearing the end.

Paws I think realistically it'll be 2 January here. I've got a house full of guests for new year

Paws I did claim up thread that it was today. Didn't really happen because I'd forgotten about the churros and ice cream in the freezer!

Back at work tomorrow so I'll try again. Just hoping colleagues don't bring in all their leftovers.

I am trying not to go too overboard but it's hard to be completely on the wagon with so many meals out etc. When it's just me in the house I am OK. poorpaws I recognise that fear of having to stop though. I can feel as though I have to eat/drink lots now because I am going to be depriving myself from x date. When the reality is I am going to be treating my body much better, not depriving it.

I am back at work on the 8th but will probably work slowly back to the "zone" from the 3rd.

I feel so bloated and gross and I now have 2nd xmas at my MIL for two days, then me and DP are squirreling ourselves away from the world for two days, brunches, long walks, wine and cheese will be the order of the day! Then my parents have a curry cocktail and casino party for NYE with another crazy ammount of food... its going to be a blow out 😂

I'm back on the wagon tomorrow. Off to see my cousins for Xmas dinner number 63billion later today

I'm quite looking forward to getting back on the other wagon. A constant stream of chocolates and crisps has left me feeling a bit bleargh.... Although I did enjoy the eating part

The wagon. Not the other wagon.

I'm back on the wagon as of today. Kicked it off with an hour in the gym .

I'm doing dry January but actually started that today aswell as I don't like going out new years and not drinking alcohol at home won't bother in the slightest. I'll stick to hot chocolate that night instead.

Hope you all had a fab Christmas!

Another disastrous day today. Lots of chocolates in the office and a terrible night on call led to an awful day of chocolates and biscuits.

Hoping for better things tomorrow. I need to quit sugar again!

I'll demonstrate how back on the wagon I am by Saying we've just eaten home made festive sausage rolls

90% of Christmas treats have been eaten so the temptation isn't there (thank fuck). I was ill over Christmas and went days without eating but managed to gain weight, I haven't had a proper appetite since but I'm still the same weight as pre Christmas which is depressing. Meh, not even starvation can make me thin

I fell off the wagon again about 3 weeks ago... finally braved weighing myself and it's nearly a stone more than I've ever weighed in my life...
I know a lot of it will be bloat from the last three days but the scary number I need to admit to is... 11 stone 8
It's been a real reality check though so there is at least that.
Well and truly back on the wagon today

I've also found out this nudges me into the overweight catagory by 2lbs as well.
For fucks sake

I'm back on the wagon TODAY, and peckish already.... it's amazing how quickly you can get used to constant eating, if you try hard enough

Oh lasty that's a bummer but it can only get better from here on in

last I’ll be admitting to a very scary number very soon. I’ve been putting off the weighin with all sorts of excuses but I have to do it. God it’s going to be bad!

Finally back on it, WI was a maintain at 11st4.5. I've given up snacking (on SW). Acc. To mfp I had 900 kcal today, whilst that will be fine I've got 2 stone of fat to live off, I am surprised it's so low.
B:2 weetabix and a banana
L:veggie roast, butternut squad does and mayflower fact
T: mushroom and other veg risotto

• approx 300 ml soya light So it did me fine, I'm craving but not hungry it's just surprising

Hate autocorrect!
*squaffles
*gravy

So made it to the wedding day...dress fits!! I was 9 st 5 lady tine I check so I went beyond my goal and I have you ladies to thank!!

As soon as tomorrow hits I am inhaling a burger..but going to try damn hard not to move too far up from this weight..time will tell but I can't wait for the Jan thread!

Thank you!!

Oh that's fantastic splatattack! Is it your wedding today?

Fab splat! Happy wedding day! X

Had a really golden day yesterday and hopped on the scales now and 11.6 so 2 down and back in the healthy range.
Really hoping it's the quick on quick off sort of weight gain...

Fingers crossed last. I think we will all be in a similar boat in a week's time! I ain't weighing till then

Fab news splat! Pics of the dress please!

Congratulations splat

So today I gave away a carrot cake and a chocolate fudge dessert so I won’t have to eat them. I’ve still got chocolate cheesecake and a lot of mince pies and cream/ice cream to eat before the 1st. It’s going to be so hard to have diet rations after being an absolute 🐷 for weeks, I’m going to need a lot of support.
