1 small galette
Starbucks Tall Light Espresso Frappucino
1 chicken breast
1 pot of low fat cottage cheese (300g)

grilled prawns with tomato and cucumber salad
2 tiny-mini slices of pizza (I was wasted)
Some drinks… I forget exactly what but something like: 1 large glass white wine

1/3 pot of cottage cheese
2 chicken thighs, 1 burger and salad
slice of Dukan lemon cheesecake
3 G&Ts
3 sambuca shots

1 small oat bran galette
Chinese food: 2 duck pancakes, seaweed, 4 deep-fried prawns, 2 prawn toasts, 3 bits of chicken.
1 chicken thigh
2 glasses white wine
Exercise: yeah, err, none.
VERDICT! The chinese food is probably the worst I’ve been. It sounds like a lot, written out as a list, but really it was a small portion. Wish my cheat had been some cake instead. I want some cake!

Oat bran porridge
a baklava
roast chicken breast with stuffing
I got high and I ate… ~ 6 chicken nuggets; doritos (my favourite, lightly salted oops!); an omelette!

Skiing in France happened. Christmas happened. I blame France. Potatoes, cheese, bread, butter - at every meal and in-between meals. I got podgy again, just in time for New Year, yay! Now the last sausage roll has been taken and the last mince pie eaten (both thanks to Aunt Reet), there really are no Christmas related excuses left, at least until I find some in the fridge when hungover on New Years Day ;)
