Shop off the pounds: A two-hour dash around the high street for those last-minute Christmas pressies burns 500 calories.
Dance yourself slim: An hour boogeying burns 400 calories.
Cook it off: A morning preparing Christmas dinner burns 400 calories.
Be a lean cleaning machine: Clearing the table and washing-up burns 150 calories a time.
Walk the weight away: A brisk hour-long walk burns 300 calories.
