Weight gain is slow and insidious and proper weight loss is sustainable and steady...
...in other words, you can pig out on Christmas Day and it's not going to undo any weight loss goals; it's just one day, even if you eat 4x your usual daily calories you wouldn't gain a pound.
UNLESS
...you fall into he trap of saying "Well, I could just do Boxing Day too..." and then "...oh, I'll def get on it next week..." and then a couple of weeks pass

.
But yeah basically this is a willpower issue Cherie. You can enjoy Christmas Day to the full if you think you have the strength to go back to chicken salad on Boxing Day. Personally, I believe in you

. Have the figgy pudding.
