I usually put on half a stone or maybe a stone. I bet hardly anyone loses weight!

So how much do you put on?

    I have started already, mysteriously put on half a stone in a month! Am quite small so it's noticeable. I'll probably be wearing a frickin Santa suit by Christmas day :eek:

    I hadn't been weighing myself to check but I was certainly more 'squidgy' after previous festive seasons. But hopefully none this year as I've just lost almost 2 stone and I'll be well pissed off with myself if I put it back on!

    I intend to lose weight over Christmas. Wish me luck!
    Every year I put on at least half a stone, but thankfully lose it by the end of Jan.
    Not this year - oh no no no, it's 'Operation not get mistaken for the turkey' (also known as 'Op Big Bird Nooooo!').

    Have also purchased some xls medical tablets, as I can't not have cheese with my port. So it's damage limitation :/

    I didn't put any on last year and I don't intend to put any on this year either. I will maybe have a few little treats but I won't be making a massive pig of myself just because it's Christmas.

    I have had 'man flu' for the past 10 days, so have lost half a stone. That will not stay off for long.

    Eat every 3 hours during the waking day and your body will never crave calories and attempt to store fat.

    Never confuse thirst with hunger and keep yourself hydrated.

    Enjoy the extra nibbles at Christmas, if your body is well trained, the pleasure will just pass through.

    I don't pig out at all over Christmas. Food wise, I just treat it like any other day.

    I don't understand what the big deal is about weight gain over the Christmas period. Who cares? It's the time of year where it's natural to over-indulge in certain stuff, be it food from the Christmas dinner or a bit too much alcohol, so don't worry about it!

    I weigh myself every Friday and was shocked that I didn't change weight over the Christmas week last year, but the week after I put on 4lbs. I didn't beat myself up about it and naturally lost it anyway.

    It's not like you're eating like that every day where it's becoming a habit and you're body gets used to it. Like a previous poster said, it will pass through with maybe a pound or two gained but it will gone by mid January.

    The average person eats 4000 calories on Christmas day, so if you're having an extra mince pie this year don't think you're being greedy, just remember that most of the population will be exactly the same as you.
