How many calories did you eat today?

I don't know and I don't care. Back on track tomorrow. ????

Almost 1500. That's just not enough.

I am conservatively at 3,000 for the day. Of that 3,000 there were 2,500 for dinner and dessert. There are two dishes that I had to completely guess at on ingredients.

We were at my girlfriend's family's today. They start later in the afternoon, so only one meal. My family traditional gets together around a late lunch time. Then we all hangout and graze for dinner. Could easily hit 4500 that way.

I ate a total of 3.168 calories today and you know what I already knew on November 1st Thanksgiving Day would be the day that I exceeded my daily caloric goals. It was all in the name of love socializing with my family and friends. :bigsmile:

over 9000.

First one I've seen in the same ballpark as me. I didn't log today but I would say it was somewhere around this with a full pecan pie being most of that. I got beyond full which I usually do on a cheat day. While that might sound bad everytime I do this 26 hours or so pass before I even feel the urge to eat again and with tomorrow being a fast that's a great thing.

Weigh too many calories today. Didn't log it.. Didn't plan on logging it. Tomorrow is a new day and I'm not going to worry about what I ate. Just wish the Gym was open on Friday!

1438, and I was shocked it was so low. And happy! I certainly felt I feasted. I did plan for this meal, but I wasn't counting calories during the day, just trying to keep the sugars low. I suppose it was the lower sugar that was responsible for the reasonable calorie count because I ate plenty of the savories.

I brought regular pumpkin pie for everyone else, and a baked version with no crust and only two tablespoons of sugar in the whole thing for me. I really like that recipe, I make it regularly and eat it for breakfast frequently.

I also brought plain raspberries and chocolate covered raspberries, which are another satisfying low sugar dessert.

What I gave up was my friend CJ;s stuffing, because I don't seem to have the insulin to deal with white flour bread products anymore. But in it's place, I brought a rather rich black rice and mushroom casserole, probably more calories than the stuffing would have been, but healthier for me. This is a new recipe I'll use again, so that's a bonus.

I'm impressed with the number of people here who had successful days in calorie counting, people who have the self-confidence to allow themselves a day off, and people who use exercise to balance the calorie intake--and just the sheer number of people willing to share. It's all encouraging and all good!

I think it was easier since I went to my brother's house, so I only ate once today. They put the food away in like 45 minutes so there really isn't much going back and grazing like at my mom's house.
