    I log EVERYTHING I eat, every day because I am more serious about this than I've been about anything before.

    YES! Not going to stop doing what works. Even if I indulge, I will do so with an awareness of what I am doing. No more mindless eating for me.

    Yeah, I feel like if I don't I'm trying to deny something I did. Plus, I love to see when I go overboard. I logged Thanksgiving and it really wasn't even as bad. I was eyeballing my servings... I pretty much know I can't/won't eat more than a cup of mashed potatoes. Only things that go high for me are booze and desserts. So really, why not just log it? It's fun to see.

    Absolutely! And I plan to be under my calories...this is a commitment to myself and when I started I made the commitment that I was willing to do "whatever it takes". Food no longer holds the call that it used to (mostly)--I try to think about it as fuel for my body so there is less reason to be overeating--speaking for myself only here.

    I think I will. I think it will help me to avoid overeating and feeling too stuffed.

    Yes - it's just another day in the eating category. If you are choosing to change your lifestyle which leads to weight loss, then you must develop management strategies for holidays and special days, too.

    Exactly!! Nicely put!

    Couldnt sleep that night if I didnt. I may go over but if I am not 100% honest with myself then I feel like I am cheating myself and that s no bueno.

    I logged on Thanksgiving and will again on Christmas. I feel that my calorie allowance is enough to enjoy the holiday without being gluttonous. I am going to be conscious of my intake and try to stay in control =)

    Very good idea!

    Probably won't log beginning on the 24th (as we are celebrating Christmas a day early with family) and then won't log for a week cause I'm going to Disney World :)

    I am going to, just not gonna worry about it much. If I go over, that's fine.
    I can't NOT log a day, it'll ruin my "logged in for x days" notification. AND THAT WOULD MAKE ME SAD. Besides, I know I'll make better decisions if I hold myself accountable, and even on Christmas I'd like to make good decisions.

    I wasn't going to.........but am tempted to change my mind. If I'm good for a few days either side, then a couple of days over shouldn't matter........(says she who's just eaten over 1,000 cals of banana chips for lunch and has a party to attend tonight..... :blushing: )

    I'm pretty much at my goal weight (2 lbs away), so probably not, since that day I won't be cooking and it won't be that easy to calculate (hosting Christmas Eve, but am not worrying about that either). I never was one to binge eat on holidays though, so I'm not going to stress over it. One or two bad days isn't going to ruin all the hard work. Sometimes a calorie spike actually helps your body kick into gear if you're stalling out (as long as you don't go crazy and eat everything in site).

    Nope. I'm going to eat what I want and I don't care what the calories are.

    I never log on planned cheat days. And this Christmas will be the cheat day to shame all other cheat days into submission...

    I probably will. Maybe. I'll be at home, so I don't see why not.

    It's just another day, like any other. I'll be logging, unless I'm too lazy, which happens occasionally. Lol

    I logged on Thanksgiving day with quick calories of 2000. Probably will do the same with Christmas.
