    about 1000 over maintenance on the 24th and 25th put together. New Years is a non-holiday for me, so this is it for the goodies. Hope the extra sweets and Carbos don't give me cravings, cause I am ready to be done with the extras and back to feeling on track ... on the other hand the goodies were pretty phenom.

    I didn't log, but I guess about 800 over maintenance. And that was from mince pies and wine :)

    I'm not bothered, it's just one day, and I did a PT session on Xmas eve, and I'm going for a run today.

    I'd say about 1000 over maintenance on Christmas day.. I've had a pretty junky week since Tuesday, but I never do weekly splurges, so I will be back to it tomorrow.

    Rough estimates on logging came in just under 6000 calories for the day so way over maintenance and exactly where I expected to be. I call it a success

    In holidays I gain more weight because in holidays we become lazy and we are eating food having more fat and calories. In holidays we just move attentions from maintenance of our body whose result is gaining calories .

    I did reasonably well. I surprised myself. Christmas Eve -367, Christmas Day +900. They are guestimates because I used MFP generic meals to calculate what I ate. I also fell off the wagon with 2 glasses of wine Christmas Eve and a glass of champagne and a Baileys Christmas day (calories included in the above). We'll see how accurate the guestimates are when I weigh in after my bike ride.

    I think about 1,000, but could easily be closer to 1,200/ 1,500. I stopped counting really, and just approximated. In future I think I am just going to treat feast days as feast days and not worry too much about what I eat, just as long as I give myself some sort of choice by making an effort to eat 'real' food as opposed to devouring the 'treat' food. Christmas cake and chocolate cake were my only real 'downfall' yesterday, lol :smile:

    Christmas Eve I was within my allowance, but yesterday, hmm, probably around 2-3000 over!
    Straight back to it today though.

    2400 over my TDEE, 1700 on Christmas Eve. I was planning on a one pound gain anyway... I'm too sick to eat anything this morning because my stomach hates me, and I'm decreasing my deficit again to finally lose my last 3 (now 4 or 5) pounds.

    I didn't even track on the 23rd and 24th since I was eating a lot of home-cooked food made by others and going out to eat and drink. Trying to figure things like that out and/or guesstimating drives me nuts so I won't even bother. One or two off days will not negate everything before it. I got back on track on Christmas and was under a few calories.
