Hi everyone,
I was talking to some other lipotrimers on another forum and we were talking about whether not were going to have christmas dinner this year?
What are your thoughts????

I really really want xmas dinner, as my mums is the best in the world :drool: BUT at the moment my desperation to lose 5 stone is alot stronger, and im afraid that if break out of ketosis, then i wont have the willpower to get back into LT and the torture of the first week again?

Hmm...

Christmas is a big thing for us, so I shall be having Xmas dinner and a tipple on the evening.
I shall ask the Pharmacist what would be best, I guess a week of refeeding would be the way ? Then new year back to the grindstone

When I started this I had 8 stone to lose so planned to take a break for xmas and get back into it all after it. I thought I would lose 3 stone before xmas and have already acheived that and am aiming for 4 stone to make me half way there. So yes for certain I am taking xmas off. I understand people say there will be plenty more xmas's etc but I learned the hard way that life is too short because 2 of my friends died this year and never knew that last year would be their last xmas.
I know I have the ability to do this so I know that I will have the ability to go back on it after my break. Good luck with whatever decision you make x

Hmm i think your probably right, but ive read you cant drink on the first week of re-feed so you may have to re-feed a little longer??

Thanks Angie, im really sorry to hear about your friends, that must of been very hard on you. atback:
Its true what your saying though, i guess in reality i should be happy with the weight i will lose up to then and then give it another bash after xmas, i guess we still have to live our lives at the end of the day.

Thank you x but you know what I believe is there are no right or wrong decisions. We simply make a decision and go with it and deal with the results xx

like you guys xmas is a tuff one. im having a break for xmas too, i want to enjoy xmas with my family an friends, and am so looking forward to having a little drink aswell. Sometimes i think its good to have a break for something as meaningful as xmas, then get back on the wagon....which most ppl do anyway after xmas x x
