well, I had good intentions but starting about the 19th, I began indulging daily. There was a big deal for my son's graduation. There were two parties at work one for clients, one for staff, two days in a row of rich foods, second servings...
Christmas Eve and Christmas Day were full of treats. I literally ate all day long on the 25th.
I can honestly say that I didn't go haywire until the 19th, although I was having peanut butter and pickle samwiches every day after work starting before the 19th. As for holiday treats, I really didn't start being freaky until the 19th, and then I just went nutsoid. Between peanut butter and pickles, and five "feast days" (good GRIEF)...yeah, not too great, and I can feel it. My jeans are tighter, my belly fat is more dense, my upper arm "wings" are thicker. blech.
What's done is done. I am doing real well today, and plan on going forward the same.
I also wanted to note an observation. I got advice from a co-worker who is obese. "You should allow yourself a small treat every day, because forcing yourself not to have them will just set you up for a huge freak out munchy session when you do finally break down" This gal is overweight and rather ill.
From a normal weight friend, when offered a treat on Saturday: "Nah, I've had a treat already today. I don't want to overdo."
Hm.
