Onwards & Downwards December

[AB Editor]

Hi! Sorry I'm late!

I need to fill in for Auntie I'm afraid, which obviously means the quality of service will be reduced.

Here's last month's thread:

http://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Body-and-Soul/Weight-Loss-and-Dieting/Question1454431-4.html

We're doing a feast at AB towers today - obviously we should all show restraint and only have 5 slices of cake - but hey, it's all downhill from here to Christmas right?

Right?

Oh, okay.

How are you holding out against the joy of nice nibbles everywhere?

[bednobs]

not all that good- my goal ws to lose a stone b4 christmas and i was on 13 lb last thursday. Then i went and spoiled it all by having a chinese on friday, then my MIL 70th birthdy meal on sat.
I have tried to be better for the other days but only weigh in tomorrow will tell i suppose!

[bednobs]

oh, and i also have to make a white chocolate torte later for my works xmas get together. It only has 4 ingredients - biscuits, cream, chocolate and butter. very slimmimg, and only 450 calories ia slice!

[Old_Geezer]

I dunno. I go to make a cuppa and the December thread appears :-)

[Maydup]

I'm finding December nibbles impossible to resist to be honest! At work there are chocolates, cakes and snacks at every turn, hey ho!

[Maydup]

My plan is to be careful at meal times, have a treat to be polite and to enjoy Christmas without being execssive. I'll be back on track immediately afterwards!

[wendilla]

I second that Maydup no point in being miserable over xmas . Have a nice xmas . We know what to do afterwards to rectify it and get back on track.xx

OG have a nice xmas xx

[wendilla]

Ab Editor hope you have a nice xmas and a happy hew year .xx

Hello all, - Xstitcher has put an answer on the end of last month's thread, how do we get it over here to the new thread, and how do we let her know?

[wendilla]

I shall e mail her

[xstitcher]

Good morning all again,

Yesterday my one leg was very swollen so after a laser treatment on that knee and a water pill I'm back to normal and have actually lost a bit...ta ra OG and thanks for the tea. What a kind suggestion Wendilla.

[xstitcher]

Was this the post you wanted Marijn?

[Old_Geezer]

Ah yes. A Merry Christmas to all our eaters.
Unsure about this Xmas, it has been suggested that when I go visiting family for the season I bring the scales with me !!!

[xstitcher]

Leave the scales at home OG but remember to take your common sense with you.

[Marijn]

Yes, that's the one, Xstitcher. I'm glad to hear you are back to normal. Merry Christmas one and all :-)

[wendilla]

I forgot today and maybe that's best as I have been having a wrestle with the sweet tin all week and the tin always won . Will have to get back on track in the new year .
I wish you all a Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year .

[Old_Geezer]

Up another 0.8 lbs (but with the stuff I'm given to eat whilst at another's, and the guilt ensuring I don't refuse, I'm amazed I'm not up 6 stone !)

[bednobs]

hello all, weigh in for me tomorrow - gulp. Im still disappointed that although i have lost over a stone i have NOT lost a dress size, nor anything near it. Where did tht stone come off of i wonder - perhaps my big toe and little finger??

[bednobs]

i lost 4 pounds :) :)

[Old_Geezer]

Well done :-)
