Ok, so tonight was the big post-Christmas weigh-in. A moment of trepidation and downright terror for many of us. Of course there are always people who manage to hold it together at this time of year, but many more of us who, frankly, let it all go. I kind of sit in between these two positions. I fill up on veg still, but I'm not about to deny myself the treats associated with the season, in particular the cheese. Oh my, the cheese...
Disturbing my reverie briefly, I refer now to my blog post's title. I don't usually quote Gina G, but her lyric seemed most fitting. For me. And cheese. Oh my, the cheese...
My main issue at this time of year is the extra-lateness. Normally I go to bed between 11.30 and 12.30. When I don't need to be up early, and more to the point, when Scott doesn't have to be up early and isn't on a shoot, I'll happily stay up past 2. Not a major problem, until you remember that dinner is usually around 7, and the extra few hours means we get the late night munchies. Munchies and wine. I forgot to mention the wine...
Anyhow, to cut a long story short, I fully expected a hefty weight gain on the scales tonight, having weighed at the end of last week at nearly half a stone heavier than my last weigh-in. Clearly that shock to my system helped to focus me. My weight has gone up by 2.5lb, taking me back to 13st 0.5lb. I'm going to set my new target for this quarter to get to 12stone. With a holiday at the end of this month, this may yet be a struggle, but that is my goal. Thank you for sharing my journey so far, and here's to a little bit more of being a little bit less.
