    yes they are!!

    YAY! a reason to celebrate and enjoy!

    how am i planning on eating during the holidays?

    well, pretty much like i'm eating now....anything and everything.
    probably more cookies than i eat now though. and likely more alcohol. oh also...a lot more ham.

    people that fear the holidays because of food are silly.

    are you a silly one, OP?

    do not fear the holidays...enjoy them!

    Honey Baked Ham is going to be epic.
    Also, I make a pretty awesome pumpkin pie and brownies.

    Oh my goodness you all are cracking me up!! This is actually one of the first times I've reached out to the MFP community since I've joined (I'm kinda a do it yourselfer). I am planning on enjoying myself and the foods of the season-- but making sure I still exercise, which seems to be key for me. Thank you all for your responses and funny pics and jokes! :flowerforyou:

    You just have to remember that Thanksgiving is one day of many days...Christmas is one day of many days...this is all about what you're doing most of the time, not an occasion like a holiday or birthday or whatever. Occasions are just that...they are occasional. In RE to exercise, you should always be exercising regardless...fitness is a lifetime endeavor. I'm training for a marathon hike through the desert in the spring and I believe I have an 14 mile, moderately strenuous hike slated for Christmas eve. I'm not going out of my way to do "extra" work though...you start developing bad relationships with food an exercise when you over indulge and feel the need to go and do some unplanned exercise.

    You know, there are those times were you just need to binge or take a little break from the dieting to fully enjoy the holiday spirit and not have to restrain yourself :) I'm eating this holiday season

    I always thought it was crazy on Biggest Loser when they would show a Thanksgiving episode on how to resist eating too much. I have days here and there now where I eat over and I have made it through. I plan on enjoying the days but will try to not over do it throughout the entire season. I am going to try to save up some calories during the week before the big day too. I have a week vacation during December too so I have a bit of a battle but I figure it is only one week and I am usually more active on vacation then at home aside from exercise.

    I am skinnying up the Pumpkin pie a bit, and going fairly clean. But that is about as much as I am cleaning up. Have no intention of logging anything on Thanksgiving or Christmas lol.

    I'm thinking I'll get full faster. But worst case, it's just two days one month apart, it's not a huge deal.
