Did anyone weigh themselves today after Christmas ? or are you waiting until January?
Was I the only weird on to do this ? lol
How much did you gain if you did?

I just wanted to weigh myself right after Christmas so I know how much I've gained so I don't wait til January an it was my way of avoiding counting the calories . I'm still enjoying the Christmas food , only gained 1.5 lbs or 2lbs including xmas eve.

    I weigh daily, it feeds my nerd side so I can track and graph it in Excel. What surprised me this morning is I was down a lb this morning.

    No. But only because my scales broke a week or so ago! I've ordered new ones which are due to arrive on 30th Dec...just in time for the New year! :)

    Gained 1.6lbs this morning but am sure it's from other factors including the dinner last night.

    Isn't weighing yourself after a 'cheat-day' (Xmas day) unreliable anyway?

    I weigh myself everyday and I only gained 1.1lbs this morning. I expect most of it to be gone over the next day or two though. :smile:

    Ahem.. *raises hand reluctantly* .... I did? :ohwell:

    Although I didn't eat poorly over Christmas Eve/Christmas day, I gained 3 pounds. After reviewing some things, I suspect it was the sodium that got me. >_<

    Hopefully it'll be gone by tomorrow! Drinking lots & lots of water and gettin' back on my gym grind today after a day off.

    I'm with the camp of people that weighs every day. I can see what is and isn't working that way. I also know my set-point by tracking. This morning I stepped on and was DOWN from my set-point. I'm looking forward to getting back on track, but Christmas didn't ruin my tracking/healthy eating lifestyle, so I feel no shame.

    Yup - I did, and it was not pretty. Up two lbs. from yesterday, and that's about 5 lbs. total over the holiday week. However, like many have said, it's a temporary rise from not drinking my water, not exercising, etc. It may not be gone by New Year's because my sister baked 8 kinds of phenomenal cookies and bars, but by the week after, I'll be right back on track.

    yup, only a 2lb gain. Not bad since I know I ate lots of sodium filled foods the past two days!

    Weigh every day. Down 1/2 lb from yesterday, but I subscribe to the law of averages and ate under my calories on other days to make up for the days I knew I was going to overeat.

    I do, too. This morning showed normal fluctuation of my goal weight plus half a pound. (Scale goes up-down-up-down-up-down.) No worries. Was under my calorie goal yesterday and had a regular workout.
