The 'How to be a Christmas Cracker' Diet ~ Oct/Nov & Dec '11

[mandymouse]

Once again I have STS, but I am dreading it when my zumba classes take a break over the Christmas holiday, I'm not looking forward to 3 weeks of overeating and no exercise (I would never have believed I would've thought that this time last year)

Well done to everyone who has lost or STS over the last week ..

.. and Good Luck over the next week

It looks like this will be my final weigh-in of the year, and I have once again STS It's my final zumba class of the year on Tuesday, and while I am looking forward to eating and drinking everything in sight, I know I'm going to really miss my zumba classes

Good luck if you're still dieting, and I'll see you in the New Year

I always forget to weigh in!

Since my last weigh in I've lost 5 pounds, which surprised me a bit! So I have reached my Christmas target and more!

Hopefully it won't go back on over Christmas time though!

See you in the new year!

Hi all

I have returned to this thread after a few months break heavier than when I left. We have had a bereavement in the family since I was last here and this has involved a lot of comfort eating and drinking. During that time I also damaged my calf muscle while I was out running so exercise has also been out, so no burning those extra calories.

Well weighing in Saturday I am now 8lbs heavier. I am starting back on my diet the week before christmas, I must be mental.

My goal remains the same and I want to lose around 10lbs, so slow steady steps towards that start now.

So sorry to hear about the loss of a family member Steve, I can totally understand why your diet went out the window

Yes you must be mad to be starting your diet the week before Christmas but lots of luck for your next weigh-in

Hi all

Maybe over the Xmas was a bad time to start as I put on 1lb this week.

Pleased that I started weighing again though as it would probably have been more if I hadn't, at least partially, controlled my eating.

I think that the homemade Cinnabons and the huge pan of broth and dumplings I made mid week didn't help I will post a picture of the Cinnabons when I get a chance and will also work out the Weigh Watchers points value too (I suspect it will be high).

So I will be back again Saturday to see how things are going.

11lbs to go now.
