Are any of you planning to have a christmas day treat? or are you sticking to plan all day.

My breakfast and dinner is going to be slimming world friendly, but I am treating myself to a slice of red velvet cheesecake. I have been craving it ever since I saw it at the supermarket lol, so on Christmas day it will be my little treat.

To be honest I think Christmas day will be pretty much completely off plan :) I'm lucky that I don't really eat Christmas cake or pudding, so I don't have to worry about that. My Dad was in hospital for 5 weeks over Christmas last year, so we're going to enjoy this one! :D Back on plan on Boxing day however! xx
 
On Christmas Day I'll probably be sticking to plan but allowing myself my full 15 syns (instead of the 13 I usually stick to).

However, Boxing day is going to be more out of control. Instead of having a meal at my mother-in-laws, the whole family is going out for a meal. We had a look at the set menu choices and none of them were really SW friendly, so I've decided to flexi-syn the meal and just stick to plan the rest of the day.
 
Yes, I will be sticking to plan BUT will be having a sticky toffee pudding with Madagascan thick cream as I have not had this since I started my diet back in July. I will sit there watching The Royle Family and thoroughly enjoy every bit if it......Happy Christmas!!!!

Totally off plan from till the 28th but in moderation where possible i will watch what im doing but not stopping myself unless im going over the top and gorging will be back on plan 28th-31st before i go out with friends and back off from 31st night-2nd! I know i will gain and i know its taken a while for me to lose but i honestly dont think it be that much i ate all i wanted including fry ups every day in Bulgaria for two weeks and was out for drinks, cocktails every night ate crisps and sweets constantly and just gained 3lbs soooo hoping won't be too bad but what i gain i will lose again! X-mas and new year come once a year so im enjoying it and not feeling guilty :)

This is the cake:

PC Red Velvet Cheesecake - PC - Products

my syn free onion gravy recipe is yummy :p. I will be having that also on christmas day ;)
 
I will probably have a little slice of christmas cake because i absolutely love fruit cake and my husband got a lovely m and s hamper from work with a fruit cake in ... good job its only a small one!!!
 
i'll be off plan xmas day only.. going to have sw breakfast and xmas dinner, but going to have pavlova for dessert and let myself have a few nibbles. then have a few drinks xmas night...

straight back on track boxing day!! well thats the plan :p
 
Love the look of that cheesecake. I'll be SW friendly except the stuffing in the turkey & going to have a dessert maybe pavalova, bailey's ice-cream or cheesecake or I don't know have to have a look what I fancy when I go shopping.

Boxing Day I'm having Black Forest Gateau really looking forward to that craving/dreaming about it for ages.
 
I'll probably be off plan Christmas day as I'll be going to my sister's and maybe boxing day (not sure what I'm doing yet) and back on until New Years Eve (probably be more the drink than food, so I guess I could save up syns for that night) then back on 1st of Jan. I'm on plan all this week though, I might have a few drinks Christmas Eve.
 
TBH i don't want to even think about SW on Christmas day! I will flexi-syn however otherwise i might end up with a huge blowout and find it hard to get back on plan.
 
I'm planning to stick to it, but I'm also hoping I'll be at target by then, so an extra treat might be in order. My christmas dinner will be totally syn free (including making the stuffing from the christmas book) so I might allow myself some bailey's cream with my Bailey's cheesecake (also from the christmas book). But Apart from that, I want to stick to it.
 
Before I started slimming world I made a Christmas cake using my nan's recipe that I found tucked in her old cookbook. I've been topping it up with my boyfriend's rum ever since. It smells amazing and seems to weigh about as much as a small baby. There is no way I am missing out on a small slice of that bad boy.
