It wasn't just Christmas that did it for me....I've been piling weight back on for the past few months....so time to stop the slide!

I've been really looking forward to starting back on a weight loss routine from today. I'm going to do Atkins for 2 weeks to give myself a kick-start, then back to calorie counting. Plus a bit more exercise of course!

Good luck everyone!

I daren't get on the scales today but I was 1/2 st heavier last time I weighed myself. But I am going to the gym today [honest!] and I feel that Christmas is now behind me [just going to take the tree down]. It could be worse. I've often found myself not putting weight on over Christmas but then picking at food I don't usually eat during January and then piling the weight on. I used to have lots of boxes of chocolate given to me when I was at work and there was always some left over into January.

After eating (in the past week) the majority of a large Christmas cake, piles of crisps and Pringles, an enormous box of Thorntons' chocolates, etc, etc, etc blush I'm joining you again today.
I've put on half-a-stone in the last couple of months or so and this must be got rid of - and more if possible.
Good luck everyone - I'm definitely going to need it!
