How did everyone do with the superbowl yesterday?

I am happy to say that I only went over my calorie goal by 100 calories. I ate very light during the day and went into the party with 800 calories to spare. When I got on the scale this morning it did not go up. I was very happy. How did everyone else do?

    I did great. I ate 400 calories under my goal and it was a free day

    I ate all the spinach artichoke dip. All of it, lol. And all the Ritz. It was a free to eat whatever day, but I still ended up eating under maintenance.

    Ate everything I wanted and was still under my limit (albeit by 8 calories).

    I ate at maintenance. So I might not lose as much this week, but there won't be any lasting gains! I do love my buffalo wings. I never order them out. Hard to stop at just five...

    I ate too much! I didn't expect the nuts. A big thing of nuts is rarely safe around me, yeah. No surprise there.

    I expected (and made) the shrimp and grits and collards. That would have been enough, lol.

    Ate at maintenance, enjoyed seven layer dip, and did not even think about my calories (logged this morning) while watching the Broncos win!

    Now to go celebrate at the victory parade--it starts right outside my office :)

    I guess I'm strange, I went crazy. About 4500 calories, but alas I'm right back on track today with under 1800 and 400 burned via exercise. :-)

    I've been struggling a lot with sleep lately and as it turned out, I slept through the entire SB, so no extra food goodies or me. I ended the day about 400 calories under my target. oops.

    the superbowl was yesterday? I saw some superbowl a few years ago. watched about 30 mins, there was only about 5 mins of actual game. kind of rubbish if you ask me.

    NO one asked you if you liked the superbowl and how you feel about the game in general!!! Sorry..

    My team won, however Cam is from my state, so I was at a crossroads who I wanted to win.

    I ate all the food we made, I actually made shrimp, scallops and snow crab and cracked on those for hours! LOL

    BTW the Doritos baby sonogram commercial was the best one of the night.

    I think I ended up around maintenance, but definitely drank a lot more alcohol than I usually do. I don't weigh in too often, so hopefully anything gained will disappear by my next weigh-in, and, if not, I'll just work harder!

    A super bowl? Was it full of cheesy dip? If so, nom! :D

    Just kidding. We don't do much football at my house but (my annual tradition) I pulled the game up on my laptop and watched it while doing some (cosplay) online shopping. We did have chicken wings and chips and dips and macaroni salad; it was all delightful but I managed to stay under calories. It helps that I pedaled my under desk bike pedals for the whole game...my calves yesterday, youch!

    really poorly. I didn't eat nearly as much food as I was hoping too as my parents didn't get any snacks for the super bowl. This was the one year we didn't really plan anything out though...

    I had pizza, chicken wings, wine and a small peanut butter egg. I doubt I went over on calories though. Earlier in the day I split and stacked wood for about 1.5 hours, shoveled out the chicken coop and hiked around the woods for a while with my grandson, so I had plenty of extra calories to eat back. I didn't gain weight.

    I had wings, nachos, and a few drinks. I stayed under maintenance calories. I was up a pound yesterday, and 0.3 of that is gone today.

    I hate football, but I ate all the things anyway. :)
