Christmas is the time to treat yourself, and after all the hard work you’ve put in to losing weight this year you really do deserve to reward yourself – just don’t do it with chocolate cake, mince pies and double cream.

Instead, why not buy yourself a little something when you’re out doing your Christmas shopping. Get yourself a pair of super short cycling shorts that you would never have dreamed of wearing a few months ago, or treat yourself to one of our favourite stocking fillers for the cycling-mad lady.

We know it won’t be easy to not overindulge this festive season and avoid Christmas weight gain, but we can also promise you that it isn’t impossible either. Good luck, and have a merry (but not too merry) Christmas!
