I have been so busy in the past few weeks that I really have not had time to do anything – including strictly watch what I have been eating. At this time of year as you can image that has included having to eat at Christmas functions and visits with friends etc.

I was so busy because I took on a rush commission for one of our national institutions. They required stuff before the opening of an exhibition so, foolishly, I said “sure no problem”, and busted my gut to get things finished. So with all the tempting eating locations coupled with the stress of this commission, school ending for the year, Christmas tomorrow … Diet? What diet?

Consequently my weight has fluctuated from 102.9 up to 104.3 and back again. I was 103.0 kg this morning. So the damage has not been that bad. I have unfortunately not done nearly enough exercise, or even my “regular” exercise over this period so I’m not sure if the staying stable in weight has been fat increase with muscle loss or just staying stationery. I’m not sure I want to check with the scales.

We leave on Boxing day for a 10 day road trip holiday to visit family about the country. It will be interesting to see how I pull up after that!

Marry Christmas to you all. Don’t stress about eating all the right, or not eating all the wrong things. Take your cheat day Christmas as totally guilt free and enjoy the holiday season.
