    I have plans to just spend a quiet day here with my husband and son without the fancy meal but I might just get sucked into dealing with my relatives all day. These people believe in the five basic food groups: caffeine, beans, meat, tortillas, and sweets. Yeah... if I wind up over there I will probably peck at my food and refuse to log it.

    If I did, it would be for the hilarity of trying to reach 10k for the day.

    logging - very rarely go over so a few extra calories will be okay for me.

    nope, I plan on pigging out. Besides, it'll take longer for me to log anything, because I'm not sure about the calories in homemade food- like bread. So, all I'm going to do is put in the quick calories: 1200 and leave it at that. I alway get back onto the diet right after, and I'm dieting before. I've been low carbing it on the days when I'm not holidaying eating, just to balance out. So far its just plateauing, but the fact that I'm not gaining during the holidays is a good sign.

    Yes. The think with Holidays is I treat it just like it is any other day. Sure, the meal may be fancier; But that doesn't mean I am going to load up my plate anymore than usual. Or stock up on sugar cookies and chocolate. I still remain mindful of my portion control, and always keep things in moderation.

    Well are you? Or are you just going to write it off?

    Part of being honest with myself in things concerning food intake is logging what I eat....no matter how much. I plan to go over my calories , but also plan to log them, just as I plan to brush my teeth.
    I can't really say that I have a new lifestyle/routine and then not log when I don't want to know how many calories I actually ate. I often wonder, if people who don't log when they eat more calories than their usual amount believe that it didn't happen if they don't log.

    Everything, always.

    I focus on my weekly balance more than my daily.
    I can usually make up for feasting days on the other days.

    And, I'm curious. I want to know how much it really is.
    Like the other day, I ate 1000 calories for hub's bday breakfast.
    It was good to know, I'd have never guessed.
