Frugaleers - into 2022

[Not2bObvious]

New thread to see us into 2022

Eleventy billion calories and all of them worth it yesterday

Happy Boxing day everyone
Sounds as if everyone had a lovely day yesterday
l didn't eat a lot yesterday but have made up for it today
Our Christmas lunch was gorgeous fair dos
Had florentines and macaroons and a big mince pie , coffee made with milk ....so far lol
I am sure l have put half a stone on already

Today might be an eleventy million calorie day here too as well. Meh, tomorrow will be better...or worse😉

It was here not. I feel like an egg on legs. Have re downloaded mfp and toying with calorie total. 1600 or 1800. ?

Felt very full all day , this scoffing business is not all it's cut out to be , l had to go for a walk to get rid of the overful feeling it's horrible isn't it !
I blame the mince pie !

1800 to start, hold firm for 2 weeks, reassess then. Always start on highest, but has to be honest for at least 2 weeks. What you think?

Oh and yes mrs, the overfull but still scoffing feeling is rubbish. Water and bed is the solution. I know I'm on holidays but if I stick to 3 meals, plenty of walking and alcohol enough for fun nor headaches I might be ok??🤞

Thank you Not l am going to bed after Eastenders , have not eaten since 3pm it's horrible ! I will drink some more water now too thank you

Good for you, I watched the thing with Claire Foy, in bed now with water & nil by mouth until tomorrow! Can't wait to get away.
Question for gen, if you did get home to NI is it ok? Has to be better than ROI with all bars & restaurants shut after 8pm

A stone put on in two days, just marvelous. I was being quite good too (compared to previous years). I've even exercised. Oh well, hopefully can start to undo this in the next week or two.

Not even remotely possible to put on a stone so don't worry talk. You're absolutely right, it'll be gone in a week or two.
I've a scale gain of 4.8 pound which is down to all the sugar/salt/extra carbs, pure bloat. No more scales until Thursday or Friday, might even wait until a few days into the new year as 3 days away isn't going to be helpful.

Yes 1800 I think

No way a stone in a few days. Definitely bloat.
Might moderate down today in preparation.
Hope
You get away gen.

I'm trying to moderate but how realistic that is with a mini break ahead of me but I've started with a 365 cal breakfast with 20gr protein. I'd kill for a choccie biccie though 😔

Ha do the mini break not them we will smash it in January

I'm going to reset my happyscale on January 1st & start back tracking on Nutracheck too

200.6 today & yesterday so 3lbs up, I've gotta start taking my metaformin consistently too. Alcohol is not agreeing with me at all, half glass of wine last night & I just felt awful, taste of Bacardi the night before so that's gone too.

Roughly 20 weeks to ds's communion & I managed to look good and lose some weight in same timeframe for dds communion. Have wedding in approx 8 weeks and another one probably 8 weeks later.

Had a croissant from air fryer this morning with two Terry's choc orange segments in it

Clothes don’t fit, can’t stop eating……

What you been eating llf?

Everything.
Todays tea was Yule log, Pringles and pretzels with lots of tea. TBF I did have toast for breakfast and turkey stew with Stilton and walnut bread. It’s most likely bloat rather then after 8s

It will come off when I am better and back on track

Have scoffed and scoffed , l have totally recovered from the bloat thank God and have given the food cupboard a good old battering today. Have decided the dried fruit in the MInce pie and the florentines yesterday were what did for me yesterday .Avoided them like the plague today and am not too bad at present despite inhaling so much food l can't even remember what altogether
I will be back on it asap and thankful to be too!
Not Happier life twill be fine l am sure, just get Christmas out of the way and then we are up boys and at it!

Taking your advice life, quite frankly scared to even try put it into mfp. Flip sake, why is this couple of weeks soo hard to not be a glutton😡
I do enjoy it in the moment but the guilt!!!

Don’t do mfp. Have the break and we will
Be back on it January.
It’s hard with the guilt but it’s 2 weeks max. There are 50’others to moderately

Nope - refuse to break my streak. Hotel breakfast eaten, too much and not that nice, I'll know better tomorrow. Off for more shopping, bloody teenagers

I did track & did the high cal vs low cal days from team rh one Christmas & didn't gain & looked good for my first wedding as a separated woman. I still enjoyed myself too

Ds is laughing in his sleep here
