Second Question: Why is the cat IN a bag?
O.k - those questions are beside the point of this post.
This holiday season I backslide....big time!
10lbs worth of backsliding to be precise.
From 166 to 176! My face is bloated, all my clothes are tight and it's been rather embarrassing at work (I know they've all noticed).
Yup, I allowed myself anything and everything this holiday season. And it shows! I was going to put a pic but I'm too embarrassed!
The good news: It's been 7 days into my new year & from all that over indulging (my husband and I started our "new year" on Jan. 3rd, our first day back to work). Seven days back on track. We've done pretty darn good (except for the WEEKEND!) Actually the weekend wasn't so bad, definitely not like the holidays, but still a bit too much snacking.
Why Lucy, Why????
It all started with the movie, Mission Impossible. This past Friday night my husband and I went on a date. The only reason I wanted to see the movie was because of Simon Peg...he reminds me of my brother (looks like him).

Movies mean popcorn and we just kind've let it go from there. Again, not like the holidays but we could have kept better control.
OH, one more thing, my husband and I are incorporating intermediate fasting (IT) into our lifestyle. My last meal is around 6pm and the next is around 9am. So far we both give it a Thumbs Up.
I'm finding my information from LeanGains. Once upon a time I would have been totally against IT. But now I'm not so sure. We'll see.
So how are YOU doing?

Lucy,I am glad you are able to get back on track! Those 10 pounds will slide off in no time! I was far from good myself. Back on task since Jan 1. IF is great. I have been doing the same-not eating after supper, and then BK at about 9. Best wishes to you in the new year :)
The IT helps your body mobilize and use fat stores...I'm all for it. I'd been doing it for a while, without realizing it. Then while listening to a Paleo Solution podcast the topic came up. I understand the frustration of the gain... I'm up 14 lbs (well 13 now). Have a great week!
I did awful from October - December! I only gained 4 pounds, thank God! I am back to working hard, though! And yeah... doing pretty much the same as you! Trying to cut out sugar & most carbs & I gotta get back to MOVING! We can do it! :)
