Well, another holiday season coming to a close and for once I'm actually looking forward to seeing that horrid little beast on the floor (AKA the scale...). Surprisingly, I managed (I think) to deal pretty well with the ridiculous mounds of munchies floating around me all the time.
Kind of felt like one of those old 80s anti-drug ads, "just say NO". And so I did, sitting on my hands as visions of sugar plums (and plates of butter tarts, Ferrero Rochers, mincemeat tarts, sausage rolls, Torrone etc, etc, etc) floated by. Not to say that I was perfect, after all stuffing and gravy is the whole reason for a turkey! Still, reasonable portions, some decent choices and a completely out of character level of restraint where alcohol is concerned have given me reason to hope that I'll actually see a positive outcome to the end of the holiday season.
That being said, not scale watching really. Just that this early on I'm happy with any form of positive reinforcement I can find (of course any excuse to bounce around doing the "I am so great" dance doesn't hurt either, and patting yourself on the back has been proven to be an excellent stretching excercise).
Not going to check how it played out until Jan 5 so I'm sure I'll post something before the "big reveal".
