    All Christmas presents bought now, and most of them wrapped. Just waiting for a few to arrive from Amazon. Enjoyed buying for people who weren't as prescriptive! Just got the Christmas cards to write and decide when to put the decorations up. We're going away so don't need to do any special food shopping, unless we plan on a second Christmas dinner on New Year's Day (OH loves turkey)!

    Busiest week of the year at work has now passed so I'm really looking forward to taking things slightly easier and then having a complete break over Christmas.

    Ah well the big struggle is keeping it off. Sadly I am an emotional eater. At one point I had lost more than this!!
