    Following for photos. Not sure if I'm going to hit 6000 or not, but I'm just going to eat what tastes good. And there shall be lots of pumpkin beer... I wish I could pre-log, but since it's a potluck, I'm not sure what's showing up.

    I prelogged my calories and only achieved 2000 for dinner but with lots of beer I may do it. So I'm in.

    A quick prelog and it seems like 6k is going to be extremely difficult to hit... Well unless i cut back on the turkey and bump up on the pies. I wonder if my cousin is bringing 2 deep fried birds to the mix. That could play a crucial role in success or failure.
    Even if I fail, I'll be full, in a food coma, and not at work so that's pure win.

    This is not what I was expecting considering the thread title.

    I approve.

    I don't think I can hit 6K, but I enjoy a challenge. The alcohol will help! :) Go beer!

    In, but don't think I'll get to 6k. I hit over 4000 for the day, a bit over 3k for the actual meal, last year.

    I wish I was in, but I'm Canadian, so we've already had our feast day, dammit.

    I am pregaming today- Breakfast was 3 biscuits (I don't eat those typically so 3 is a LOT for me)- 3.5 eggs and like 5 pieces of bacon and a gallon of coffee.

    Lunch was 5 oreos

    Dinner is Skirt steak + sweet potatoes + veggies + salad.

    I am a selfish B so I sent the BF back to the store bc/ he forgot the sweet potatoes and MOAR WINE.

    And crushed oreos in mint ice cream for dessert. Fat kid is fat. and happy.

    I have an AM run planned tomorrow- BF has to work- so i have really nothing to do till noon/ 1 PM- possible a gym stint Thur- Friday (I'm away from home- so I have to pay to play- pending pending on those gym visits)

    I feel like 4K is a solid respectable goal to hit- I haven't considered alcohol- I have to drive- so I'll have to drink early and let it wear off- or- just wait till I'm home.

    Either way- whatever- All are welcome- 4K or not- just make a solid effort to effort ACTUALLY eat and enjoy the hell out of all that home cooked food!!!

    I'm in. :drinker:

    Not sure I'll be able to do it (since I'm only cooking one of the dishes), but I'll try. If, someone brings cheesecake and pumpkin pie, then I'm sure to hit it.

    Because that's me today. Into the pie.

    I'm keen to see the pictures and go "ewwww" everytime you guys add sweet stuff to your veggies ;)

    I reckon 6000 on Xmas Day is decidedly possible...probable even!

    :huh:
  • I'm confused... Nobody is trying to eat at goal today? Because it's one of two "treat" days a year? I'm afraid I'm developing a food phobia, and I was planning to eat as little as I could to stay in goal lol. It would be nice to not think about what I am mindlessly eating for the day.... Hmm
