    Wine, broccoli/cheese casserole, wine, ham, wine, cheese balls, wine, turkey, wine, potatoes au gratin, beer, homemade candy, wine, chips and dips of several varieties, beer, butternut squash risotto, wine, pecan pie, wine, Christmas cookies. And finished the evening off with a nightcap or two.

    I think I would have been okay if I hadn't eaten at 3 different steak houses and 1 wing place while shopping on Friday and Saturday.

    I actually lost a couple of pounds, but I'm it is because I'm so dehydrated from alcohol. I tend to forget about food when I'm gettin my drink on. Which always makes for an interesting evening. No doubt when I drink water and eat today I will go up those couple pounds. Damn you vodka! But you're sooooo good.:drinker:

    Well last week I was home with my 6 and 5 year old boys so needless to say I drank alot! They were driving me crazy! And everytime I had to break up a fight, I went to the garage and grabbed a beer. So on average I drank a six pack everyday!

    I let myself have a serving or a half serving of anything that looked good to me.
    Amazingly, the Buckeye candy didn't taste as good to me this year but the fudge tasted wonderful.
    I allowed myself some Christmas sugar cookies but only a few.
    I don't drink ( allergic to alcohol ) so that wasn't an issue...
    I only had one piece of pumpkin pie and I chose Cool Whip over ice cream.
    I knew I wasn't going to be able to get out and exercise while my Mom was staying with us so it felt really good to get out and get some fresh air, sunshine, and exercise this AM.
    Sugar detoxing for me this week !!

    Ahh... the Polish food did me in this year. Home made pierogi.. how could I say no? Then my aunt made my favorite cheesy potatoes. They were fantastic. I told myself I could indulge a little if I didn't drink, and I didn't. Which is a MAJOR accomplishment for me! lol :drinker: ... somehow managed to lose 2.6 lbs last week... so I must have done something right :tongue:

    Small glass of white wine and one Jameson on the rocks.:wink: Date balls(many), peanut brittle, divinity (many), cream cheese mints, ham, homemade rolls (one) and (it seems to be a theme here) homemade mac and cheese-two different kinds. And of course, frosted homemade Christmas cookies.
    The real naughty was Christmas Eve. It is our family tradition to eat steamed snowcrab legs and butter. Lots of butter. I cooked and by the time everyone was served my husband was done. He cleaned crab for me and put it on my plate.:smooched: I couldn't even count the calorie burn of ripping those buggers apart.:noway: Back on the straight nd narrow today, mostly. No big plans for New Year's and I don't drink alcohol very often so hopefully things will settle down now. I only gained a pound from last Wed. and that was after breakfast. I forgot to weigh before breakfast and so many of my MFP friend were lamenting their gains so I had to check. Official weigh in is Wed.

    My Aunt's homemade fudge... I was fine until there was fudge!! Then there were cheese a crackers.

    ...and a bottle of wine....

    and I regret NOTHING. The scale didn't bite me, and I'm right back on top of things.

    New Years Eve will be interesting though, I anticipate much wine!! Hmm, I could save all my calories for wine! Ha! Yeah, all the vino without food nothing could possibly go wrong with that scenario!
    (woo hoo!!)
