1st - Weight session, dumbells tri and bicep.2nd - Core Session3rd - going to the wall later, approx 2 hour session.
This isn’t an issue in-and-of-itself, since any added poundage can be lost during other parts of the year. But that doesn’t appear to be the case for most people. Several studies have found that weight gain during the holiday seasons is not lost during the spring and summer months, suggesting that holiday treats may be a key player in the slow, insidious weight gain most adults observe with age.
What does "most people" mean?

Like this Sharkathon idea, just joined UKB so bit of newbie but was doing the dry Jan and had decided to exercise everyday of Jan. Going well for me so far.

Today I didn't have breakfast. That's weight loss progress sorted. Anyone struggling with their weight, try it you might like it.

Not sure how I'd cope without a morning coffee though.

Stumbled into Feb with a duffed shoulder which meant the cycles to work and a couple of walks at the weekend as my final contributions.

Lots of blubber to shift. Was a year-high of 69.5kgs just now. That's verging on overweight. I'll need to get down below 65 by the end of the month to feel like 2018 isn't just going to be a repeat of 2017.
