In the last 3 years, each xmas (between 20th Dec - 5th Jan) I have gained about 10 pounds. This year's aim is to lose 3 pounds in the next week and a half and then only gain back those 3 pounds during the xmas period, i.e be the same weight as I am now on 4th Jan when I go back to work!
Got to do it this year, coz fed up of having a miserable January trying to diet!!
Anybody else go mad over xmas?
0.
I will have the usual fun time exercising over christmas.:):(
And early New Year ;);)Quote:

in that case I'll be losing weight. ;DQuote:

I'm expecting my twice yearly British food imports any day now, so I'm looking forward to all the snacking. I'm as thin as rake and even chocolate is no match for my psychotic metabolism.
I can send you a cracker and mince pie?
and you can watch the queens speech online, it'll be like you never left!;D
I know it's a little late, but I've even ordered myself an Advent calendar! It doesn't get much hardcore than that!Quote:

They probably do actually. They even do Fray Bentos meat pies, anything you want that doesn't go bad too quickly. I buy stuff in bulk and tidy myself over 6 months at a time. Korean supermarkets really suck donkeys balls. Crisps boil down to a choice of ready salted or squid. That sums up most of the food here. I love BCS, it keeps me sane.Quote:
