Decadent December

[Octopus37]

Its been a long, difficult year once, so I thought maybe we could all be a bit decadent in December whether or not this involves food.

I'm starting at nearly three pounds up since last month, but I did have Covid so it was an abnormal low., 8st12.5. Aiming to go for damage limitation throughout December.

Welcome @Nypie

I had my booster on Wednesday so spent most of yesterday in bed feeling crappy. Couldn't eat anything as I felt sick.

Weighed this morning at 11st 6.7, which is mostly empty stomach haha. But a happy weight to start Christmas.

I hope everyone has a lovely time

Merry Christmas everyone and thank you for all of your support

Happy Christmas Eve! I did 11,000 steps yesterday but ate the most massive lunch. 10/7 this morning.

Happy Christmas Eve everyone and thanks for the welcome @Octopus37 & @LadyDanburysHat sorry you're sick with the booster! So many of my family have come down with covid so dont know what 2moro will bring butt I've started with the prosecco!

Happy Christmas everyone. I’m going to avoid the scales for a few days now! Will just try not to eat too much today and recompense over the few days after.

I ate 100g of fudge yesterday. Was tasty. Today will be one big meal, lots of alcohol and trying to resist the snacky stuff that will be constantly on offer.

Hope everyone has a lovely day

Merry Christmas! 10/7 here still and unlikely to get my full steps today. Maybe I will run up and down the stairs at MIL’s.

Sorry I should have clarified that I have done a namechange. I'm the one whose lost 3.5 stone on this thread since lockdown 1. I need to distance from my old name but hopefully that clears it up.

That's amazing fly.

Happy Christmas lovely ladies. Enjoy the festivities, you've worked hard all year in a pandemic still and you deserve a bit of fun.

Blimey, @swallowedAfly you have done amazingly! You must look like a different person. I feel like a bit of a fraud here because I am essentially stuck about 4lb over my fighting weight, while other people are doing so fantastically, but it helps me to check in.

You have done amazingly @swallowedAfly, love the user name by the way. 8st13.5 this morning. Happy Christmas everyone

I shouldn’t have weighed today. 10/9. I didn’t eat masses yesterday but do feel like my “digestive system is quite sluggish”, to be polite.

I really don't look that different imo Judy which is weird and makes me wonder how huge I must have been.

Just recently though as I near a healthy bmi I am finally feeling like my face is starting to look like it's old self though.

I need to lose another 2st ideally.

You definitely shouldn't have weighed Judy! Just ignore it and don't make the same mistake tomorrow

I weighed this morning, 9st0.75.TBH have felt weirdly overwhelmed by all the leftovers we've got, sounds odd I know Hope everyone has had a good Christmas.

I hope everyone has had a good Christmas! I’ve eaten so much rubbish I feel disgusting but can’t seem to stop!
I’m absolutely dreading stepping in the scales at the weekend but hopefully it’ll be the kick up the bum I need to get my motivation back!

10/8 here today, and we are off out for a walk so should get my steps.

@LBB2020 don't feel too disgusted and remember you're not alone I've definitely overindulged this christmas...and boxing day. I'm feeling so tired but If I can go do an 1 hour half walk I'll be so happy wish me luck ladies and well done @Judystilldreamsofhorses

swallowedaFly! Massive well done to you. I will miss your alter ego!! I am 9st3 this morning but excess, excess and more excess means that's no surprise.

Thank you @Nypie

10/8 here today - but I did at least do 11,000 steps yesterday.

10,000 steps yesterday hoping for the same today! Only weighing on wednesday hoping I haven't gone over 10st10. Well done to everyone making the effort! Tomorrows a new day for those struggling!

Weighed this morning 9st1.75. Had a day of eating too much yesterday, that sort of mood, also not enough steps. Aiming to get my steps in and drink lots of water.

10/7 here today - only 7,000 steps yesterday as I didn’t leave the house, but am off to meet my friend later so should do better today.

12:1.2 here. I was a whisker under 12 before Christmas so the damage isn't too bad I'm thinking.

Sounds like we've all done ok and now just have to stick with it through the trudge of cold and not a lot to look forward to January/February slog. Sorry - very cheery of me! Last year I came unstuck at this point so determined not to this year.

We can do it!

Hi all, I wasn't well before Christmas and had a sore stomach on Christmas day, so that helped me not go too bad with food.

11st 9.5 today. So only up by 1.5lbs or so. Which is not too bad. I'm not ready to go back to eating sensibly just yet though.

10/7 today - did 12,000 steps yesterday and have done 13,000 already today.

January and February are such a slog, but at least the days will be getting longer. I bought a huge bunch of tulips yesterday!
