[QUOTE="Patch, post: 226594, member: 13526"] For me - it's a case of not having the food in the house. Not practical if you have kids, or are entertaining - but it (kinda...) works for me. I let myself go [i]a little[/i] at Christmas when out visiting. Especially when I'm visiting my Mum - she sure can cook!!! :wink: Stuff like cheese and biscuits is easy to cheat at. I LOVE it - but have to take it easy on the biscuits/crackers. Load up on the cheese, and break off a little biscuit/cracker to go with each mouthful. I find the best way to deal with Christmas Pudding (cold - always cold!) and Cream, is to just make myself comfy on the floor, and wait to doze off quietly afterwards. The in-laws have a good laugh at that on Christmas night. :wink: Bottom line is - if you can't let yourself go at Xmas, when can you? My coping strategy for this Christmas is to be as good as I can (within reason), then get back on the Optislim for 8 - 10 weeks at the start of January! [/QUOTE]
