Okay so I will admit to having neither fasted nor counted calories over the Christmas period. Intentionally though, not because I was face down in a sherry trifle with a chicken leg in each hand in an act of delicious self destruction.
Sometimes you just have to not worry overly, try to remain somewhat in moderation and know that this is temporary only and have in mind exactly when you intend to get back on the horse.
Ive lost and gained and lost enough weight in my life to know the frustration of having to lose weight just to get back to the weight you once were and I am now far more mindful of this when I do choose to ignore the disciplines that have proven successful so far.
I am not in denial of my most carnal urges, and for this week I am enjoying them very much. Without guilt.
I love the sweet deliciousness of cocktails and nibbles and chocolate. I am a huge fan of the sensuous sweetness of whipped cream and the unctuous wonder of all things made of pig.
But with the new year on the horizon and opportunity to start things again I am looking forward to getting back to things in a few days time. But until then, I think I shall have a woo-woo and some baklava!
Afterwards 
Yes, I have resisted the dive into the trifle, but have eaten more mince pies than I should, but tomorrow is a good a day as any to don the mantle of sainthood!

I’m looking around whether to open up that last package of chocolate-covered Digestives as I’ll be cutting down too after New Year’s … I still have one hour and four minutes … what kind of calorie mischief can I get into?

Baklava is sure yummy, but what is a woo-woo? I will be trying to take a much healthier outlook on life. I will NOT exclude treats, but I will watch my portions much closer. And I am moving twice a week at a therapy pool in town.
