I'm counting but not really trying to control myself. It's an interesting experiment. I'm bulking anyway but, wow. It's a good thing I don't make fudge year round.

    It's so interesting to see how your day ends up on days like this, it's like what a day would be before MFP. A controlled lack of control. I like it!

    I am logging everything. It will help me from getting totally out of control. I am going to eat pretty much what I want, but just small amounts.

    I agree. I am logging. It is unreal how much I eat on days like this and never knew! I always just skipped logging it before. But I'm not failing this way. Just learning.

    I logged, but I'm 401 over. =( What's sad is that the last 200 of that was intentional. I figure if I can get through today and tomorrow without adding any weight back, I can live with myself. ^_^

    I am logging and I am counting! Trying to stay under my calorie count. I made it Christmas Eve and pray to make it tomorrow!

    Yep. Totally counting. Today was my Christmas with my daughters. They'll be with their mom for tomorrow. I got out early, burned a huge amount of calories working out so I'd be sure to have a deficit at the end of the day.

    I'm logging, but not pushing myself to eat under calories. More pushing myself to make better food choices. The peanuts I snacked on tonight are oh so much healthier than the bowl of Reindeer mix (Bugels, popcorn, potato sticks and pretzels with a garlic coating) sitting next to it. And, I never even thought of the peanut butter fudge in the next room.

    I ended up logging and I'm pretty close to even over the week so far. Tomorrow is just a leftovers day since we had "christmas dinner" tonight.

    damn straight I am logging... have had some friends say "don't count, its a holiday" but no thanks to that... have to count everyday... I haven't once gone over even on a holiday... though on holidays I do come dangerously close... even work out on the holiday to be certain --- anyway Merry Holiday all - whatever you celebrate

    I am logging... Like others who have posted "I am totally addicted", If I don't log, I feel like I have cheated somehow!! Even if I go over my calories I need to log, right! I need to be truthful otherwise this site will never help me!! I need to log the good, the bad, and the ugly!!! I did go over my calories today but I WILL NOT beat myself up over it, and tomorrow is a new day!!!
