  • Absolutely. If it goes in my mouth, I log it.

    I pre-logged my Thanksgiving meal. I made everything so I knew what was in all the food. I am so pleased with my eating this year, compared to past holidays where I would eat whatever I wanted. Truly showed me that I have changed and this new "lifestyle" is working for me. :smile:

    I'm logging for perspective, but I'm not going to be super nitpicky with my food that day. :tongue:

    We will have our dinner on Saturday this year. But same with me, just going to work on portion control and enjoy myself. I still have a ways to go to get a handle on maintenance.]

    Going to log just to keep track, as far as staying under calories I'm not going to stress over it

    Yes and I didn't do as bad as I thought I would!!
  • I decided I was going to both log it and enjoy it. I took smaller and wiser portions, ate until I was satisfied. I didn't worry about how many calories were in the particular foods. Believe it or not, by the time the pecan pie made it around, I was not hungry. For the first time that I can remember I didn't walk away miserable. In fact, I could walk, not waddle, away. My NSV today was for me, showing myself how far I'd come.

    btw, I way below my calories!!

    I logged it and was surprised to find I was under calorie goal. The only thing I can chalk it up to was small portions. I measured everything and when it came to pies,I had slivers. I do not feel deprived at all. In fact, I was stuffed. It also helped that I worked out as usual.

    Yes I did. Makes you appreciate why you stopped eating the bad stuff in the first place.
  • I logged my calories. I did go over by about 250-300. I refuse to beat myself today:) I will simply do some more time in my workout tomorrow!

    I logged everything. Stayed in control and used portion control to enjoy everything I wanted and came under my calorie goal by 28. No day off. Defeats all my hard work to get where I am. Hope everyone else was successful and enjoyed the holiday!
