Hasty sipdown. I used my last 8g of leaf in my last Nordic mug because I just wanted to finish it. At least this way you get more chili heat, but the chocolate in here is just… not for me.
Ugh, the holidays is horrible on the diet. I worked far too hard to gain back even a pound or two. I way overate today. Panettone, Christmas chocolates, a slice of lemon meringue pie, dolmas, steak… for shame. I’ll be at 15k steps soon so let’s hope I still did enough activity to burn most of it off. At least drinking this tea = no shame.

No self-flagellation. In one second, you will turn all this around and be back on track. In fact, I think you already have.
Thanks, Evol! Could be ten times worse, anyway.
I know the feel about holiday overindulgence. I’m not even supposed to eat large portions because I get bad, prescription-strength reflux, and Christmas Day utterly destroyed me. I just felt ill. And I’ve gained like 3 pounds. Ughhhhhhhhh I WANT IT TO END WITHOUT HAVING TO GO BACK TO WORK
You never know, a portion of that weight gain can just be due to water retention. I’m sorry you react so badly! The holiday season is such a double-edged sword.
I am always glad when eating crappy makes me feel crappy. I hate feeling crappy so it is motivation to get back on track. I feel your pain. I got rid of all baby weight to land right in the middle of the holidays. I am hoping my sweet tooth did not get the better of me and make the scale creep. Looking forward to a set routine again next week.
I’m sure you didn’t do that badly since you’re probably more conscious than the average person due to the fact that you had to work to get to reach a certain goal. Like, I find that having a fitness tracker has helped me not indulge as much as I probably would have otherwise.
But you’re right! That gross feeling afterward is a nice reminder/deterrent.
