The Christmas pig in a blanket....

Is me.

I've officially become a Christmas slob. 

I'm sitting here looking at the table in front of me littered with my torn open advent calendar (forgot to open for 10 days- winning). And the pack of malted milk biscuits I just consumed most of.

And then I looked at a photo of me from a year ago- last year my frame of mind was definitely more into loosing weight and this years was to maintain. I looked so much better last year- you are what you eat that's for sure. 

This month is always tough watching your weight- there is alcohol, chocolate and late night kebabs everywhere. I had a kebab last night. On a Tuesday at 10 after mulled wine and nibbles. A kebab. On a Tuesday. 

I guess my rule for December is to have a bit of what you fancy (or the whole packet) and just try to be healthy where you can. I'm still going to the gym a fair few days a week and if I am home I'm cooking and prepping healthy meals. Unfortunately I know, as do the scales, that it isn't enough so come January we are going clean again.

I'm actually really looking forward to eating healthy, training hard and getting back in it- I know I'll have so much more energy but hey, it won't be nearly as much fun as chocolate for breakfast and kebabs for tea. 

***I will be posting on Instagram or blogging everyday in Jan!***
