    Some people stuck to their deficit, some people went all out. There's already a number of threads about it.

    Piece of pie...literally! For some reason I did not have a huge appetite at all. Some turkey, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, and a roll....then a bit of pie for dessert. That was it. I think I stayed under my goal. I've come to find that it's not how MUCH I eat that keeps me chunky, it's what I eat.

    I went cycling Thanksgiving morning. I didn't bother logging calories because there was no internet and very little cellphone service where I was. I'm sure I over ate, but not enough for me to regret it.

    I got the Trilogy on Friday and made my kids watch them all. :mrgreen:

    I was released from the hospital. I was just happy to have food I could chew.

    Too many cookies.

    The actual dinner was full of brisket sandwiched between two rolls. I had to get up and someone threw away the food I didn't have a chance to eat. :(

    how did you stay under your calorie goal???? i found it impossible, mainly with all the food that was surrounding me. I had lost self control that day lol.

    I had dinner alone, as well, but I made a fun one. Dungeness crab, roast vegetables, deli stuffing.
