Back in the diet game after my Yule break, during which I enjoyed putting on the traditional half stone. Once again, I wondered why we can't buy mince pies all year round. Mmm....

OK, yesterday I was steeled for the sudden decrease in calories as I began my first DB of 2015. Then my breakfast decided not to stay down. Splitting headache, too. Did not eat any more that day and haven't eaten much today, but think I should be back to normal by this evening. I've lost half the weight already but rest assured this is not the way I usually win my bets. Really glad I didn't get the bug during Christmas.

So if you don't see me publishlng my weight for a while it's just because I don't like seeing the chart tipping the wrong way - during a bet!
