I thought you were out.
I think about the calories I need to eat to reach my goal every day...holidays included. Why is that odd? But I don't *just* think about calories on any of those days.
And reaching my protein minimum on holidays is sometimes (surprisingly) difficult.
TL;DR - reaching 3000-3500 calories every day (including holidays) isn't easy.
I was out yesterday, but today, I'm back. Like a bad penny.
Seems odd to concentrate on calories for a holiday to me, especially just so hit some seemingly randomly set high calorie goal, but that's just me. Do what you gotta do.
it's a YOLO thread my friend.... YOLO.
yeah I said it- you guys can throw pie's at my later- but only delicious pie- with lots of home made whip cream- none of that crappy store bought stuff.
Oh, no! All I have is apple walnut upside down pie and vanilla ice cream.0 -

Might have to throw cookies at you.. seems the pie all got eaten!

I don't...er, I mean, *my friend* doesn't believe you. Please to post video proof.0 -
Last year my aunt made the German Chocolate cake from the Magnolia Bakery recipe...Ermygahd. But if threw that at you, you must allow me to recoup some off yer face. I'll be gentle.0

I seriously love ALL of you- and I love that you get me. You know me- and you get me.
Jof- my man- I will gladly take video when I get enough cookies to try to snatch out of the air...
and totally I'm all about some german chocolate on my face- or whoseever chocolate- no need to be country specific.Waitwaitwait we're talkin skin on skin contact? Well then let me be more specific:
I'll probably have exactly 85 grams of raw spinach while looking at my favorite thinspiration pictures and googling "cardio for spot reduction"
BAW HA HA HA HA HA

I plan to stay within my calorie allotment and stay slim. Nothing is worth gaining back the weight that took so long to lose!0

get out.
also- I won't be fat on Friday- I'll still be fabulous- I'll even take before and after pictures for you if you want
one day doesn't make you fat- much like one day doesn't make you skinny.
Also- if you have nothing calorie heavy to add... get out. Because this is apparently where the fat kids hang out.

Thanks for the earworm, JoRocka. If I am humming this the next couple of days I will find a way to get you back.0

Let's see, tomorrow night (Christmas Eve) I have a party with my co workers and there is supposed to be casserole, strawberry salad, kit kat cake, and rum cheese balls, I will eat it all and I am sure that meal alone will hit like 1500. Then on Christmas day its like this
Orange cream cinnamons rolls and coffee for breakfast
Chicken Noodle
cranberry sauce
sweet potato casserole
kings hawaiin buns
Cherry pie
SO that will probably add up to a good 2000 for me.
Definitely excited though.
No I probably won't be meeting your 4,000 but oh well, I usually don't a whole bunch cause then I can't move.0 -
...And you know what I miss about Jersey, especially during the holidays? Wonderful fattening diner food at all hours. Omelettes with homefries, fries with gravy, gyros, I could go on, but the drool may begin to pool in my lap.0

If you're doing it right, you don't even need to think about it. Quit trollin' brah.0 -
I'll post a picture later. My small glass of beer.0

Nasty (real nasty!) dental appointment yesterday and finally tooth a little less sore. Just can't open my mouth as so sore from all the injections to try and numb my tooth. So no chewing still. Tried a chocolate biscuit - 6 teeny bites and just not the same. So I'm off out to buy every flavour of ice cream I love so as not to feel I'm missing out!0

On Monday I bought my nieces & nephews some holiday doughnuts from Wal-Mart's bakery in the shape of a tree caked with icing. It came in a six pack so of course I had to eat two of them so it would make it more even for them:D.
Tomorrow I plan on eating:
Breakfast:
Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Quest Bar & maybe some biscuits & gravy
Lunch:
ALL THE FOODS! Chili & Fritos, meatballs, homemade crab dip with chips & cucumber to dip in, deviled eggs, crock pot macaroni & cheese, dirt dessert, snickerdoodle cookies, lunchmeats, & who knows what else.0 -

I hear ya. Wisdom is justified by her children. We're having home made pizzas. I'll have my share but won't stuff myself. If I ate 4000 or more calories I would feel uncomfortable (physically) for most of the day. So, pizza, some merlot and good friends will suffice.0 -
Tonight for dinner I'm making Ham, green beans, sweet potatoes and rolls.
Which will be promptly followed by hot cocoa while driving around looking at xmas light displays with my kiddo. There will be whipped cream and marshmallows involved.
Also, I will need to help Santa Claus eat the cookies we leave out for him. He's fat enough as it is and I'm pregnant. I'll try to leave him a cookie.
I'm thinking some Eggnog will also be appropriate but I haven't logged it yet.0
