Hello everyone, hope you had a wonderful Christmas. I worked yesterday, and was quite upset at missing the first Christmas which my little girl would really enjoy opening her pressies. However, went to my mom's yesterday evening after work and had an absolutely lovely time. I was completely and utterly stuffed afterwards though! I have also been to my best friend for Boxing day dinner today. It was absolutely gorgeous too! However, I can now officially say I am sick of chocolates, sweets and crisps!! Shock-horror! Something I really thought I'd never say.

On the plus side, I got a couple of absolutley lovely, unexpected surprise pressies from "Santa"! My dear hubby bought me a new camera for christmas which is very handy since there's only just over a week till we go on holiday to South Africa. I also got a WII and Wii Sports Resort, which I honestly never thought I'd get. Spent most of the night playing bowling, tennis and boxing. Boy, do my arms hurt! At least I know it works and we worked off a few calories. I would like to get the Personal trainer, Jillian Michaels and the Biggest Loser games, so better start saving when I get home from holiday!

Anyway, I'm back at work, and have so far said no to chocolate. I am sipping on my Rooibos tea (South African herbal tea - very nice!) and hoping that this nightshift goes passed really, really quick.

Still very nervous for going home, because I'm so much bigger than when everyone in SA saw me last, but at least I've made a start. Going to be really good and do loads of exercise this week to kickstart my weightloss.

Have a good evening, everyone. xx
