Isn't it ugly??? Yuck...I'm sorry about this thread turning into bummer -:flowerforyou:0 -
:huh:
This^^^^0 -
This thread is insensitive to anyone who doesn't celebrate US Thanksgiving!
But I'm forgiving and indeed getting into the spirit of it all, so I'm going to pre-log my Thursday chicken pot pie lunch!0 -
Great job OP! This is very inspiring0

I'm prelogging too but I'm eating way more than 1300 cals.
And seriously, 1300 cals is high for you?
Sure it is. I load up on water and that helps fill me up too.
What kinda foolishness???..okay whatever floats your boat ...:yawn:0 -
You're idea of pigging out is my idea of dinner.
So glad we're not going to the same Thanksgiving.
Actually, I'm disappointed I'm not going to the same Thanksgiving. There's going to be tons of food left at theirs!
I'm not. I truly would not have you as a guest in my home, at ALL. Your comments to me are rude and unkind at best and foolishly lame at worse. It must make you feel like a bigger better person by posting these mean-spirited comments, but I understand that's just who and what you are (and it makes me feel "kinda" sorry for you too) and what's in you and that's why you would NEVER be extended an invitation to my home and I wish you'd uninvite yourself from my thread as well. But, of course, if wishes were horses...beggers would ride.
LOL I like you..although I may not like what your eating for the holiday u have spunk...lol kicked her right out of your thread!..that made me lol literally...great job0 -

Well, darn the bad luck. I TRULY wanted an invitation...
For clarity, which comments of mine were mean, rude, unkind, and foolishly lame?
I'm pretty sure all I said was that A) it's sad,
I want stuffing and wine, and C) I'm disappointed to not get your leftovers.
Overly sensitive people FTW. :huh:
If you don't know...I surely won't tell you. I reckon you are so accustomed to mean-spirited snarky way of life and talking, that you simply can not tell/see how ugly your comments are. Again, that's because it's who you are. It may be a little too late in life to teach you and I'm sure in the world not gonna be the one who tries, period. Go haunt someone else's thread why dontcha?
Someone needs to lighten up. Geez. The only hateful comments Im seeing are yours. You really need to get a sense of humor as I dont see anything wrong with her comments. In fact I feel the same way. Tis a shame to see so much thanksgiving leftovers. I may be watching what I eat and will certainly log everything I do...but Damn Im going to enjoy the food and family.
Ya know, where I come from we have a saying...it's don't start none, won't be none...you start some and it's ON! I've tried to ignore this chick and another poster for sometime--my responses are indeed giving back and a wee bit more and at the very same time trying to let this chick know, in no uncertain terms somethings are cute and funny and some things need to be addressed. This is what I'm doing and I'm sorry if it's a bummer to you, it is to me too.0 -

You don't have to explain why your offended..if they don't like it they can kick rocks..or skip out the thread..no biggie..but do not EXPLAIN yourself for being offended.0 -

Nope, not a bummer to me. Just very glad that I dont have you on my friends list. There is no room for uptight people with a stick up their *kitten*. Im a laidback person who has a great sense of humor and can take a bit of poking and prodding and I wont get my panties in a twist or start a tantrum.0 -
Not logging that day...it's only one day and I know I'll go over! I'm just going to make sure I only get one plate, limit myself on dessert, and try not to have too much wine
Friday night will be spent at the gym! 0 -

Hmmmmm..."laid"back uptight, stick up their *kitten*, bit of poking and prodding, panties in a twist....WOW and :laugh: Sounds like you need more than a nice Thanksgiving Dinner to me--you sound positively in need of a lil something something! 0 -
That is a great idea! I feel so apprehensive about Thanksgiving, I know it's crazy. This is my first thanksgiving I actually am going to be mindful of what I put in my mouth EVER!0

I prelogged mine last week actually :laugh: My family goes out to eat for Thanksgiving so I had to figure that out and I need to know what I can/can't have when it comes to pies later at my boyfriends' parents. We have a Thanksgiving Feaster Five 5K that morning too so it'll all work out calorie wise, plus it's one day :bigsmile:0

Thanks! This will also be my first time pre-logging a holiday meal too. I'm glad I did! Have a beautiful day 0 -

Sounds like a GREAT day and terrific plan. Enjoy and thanks for posting! :flowerforyou:0 -
i did mine today....breakfast, light lunch, snacks and then dinner...i'm coming in just under 2000 calories - my daily goal is 1600 and i'm doing a 45-60 mins run early in the am before i start my food prep....sooooo, i plan on coming out on top or at least even that day....looks like i'm in good company...
ooops, i didnt log dessert yet so i'll be over but i'm okay with it since i know i can drop the serving size of a few of my entries and be okay....having it pre-logged just means i KNOW what i plan to eat...that is a bonus in my book...
Wonderful...you ROCK and I hope you and yours have a tremendous day! :flowerforyou:0 -
I prelogged mine as well. I can eat the veggies ANY time so I just loaded up on the stuffing and 'taters. I never get to eat those. I'm even ok without the pie.
That's fabulous and I hope you'll have the BEST day/time ever!! :flowerforyou:0 -
I like how you think! I might log what I 'plan' to eat first thing that morning. I am doing a 5K race that day also. So I will pre-plan to not go over my daily calorie goal on the thanksgiving meal, and save my morning exercise calories for desserts.
Thank you ma'am...likewise! I'm so proud of you to run a 5K that day, that is so awesome!!!! You Rock! :flowerforyou:0 -
I haven't finalized my Thanksgiving menu yet, so haven't pre-filled out and probably won't. I'm going to focus only on portion control that day. Other than that, I am going to eat whatever I want, within reason of course. I think I'm going to log everything in MFP, just for fun. And I'm not going to sweat whatever the total number is.
My adult daughter will be in town for five days. That will be a big challenge for me because she has horrible eating habits (wonder where she got those) and she is not my greatest influence that way (and vice versa). But I will try and be good. I will also forgive myself for having a few bad days WITHIN REASON.
You're my SHERO...that sounds like such a wise way of thinking. I hope you and your daughter have the BEST time ever and thanks so much for posting!!!!0 -
I'm not. Just going to practice moderation and exert a bit of self control. Plus I'm not doing my cooking. I'll probably have to take about 15% less to account for my moms cooking. She's sneaky with the added calories. Love her mashed potatos but before they are on your plate usually some butter, sourcream and whole milk in there. Gravy is from scratch, sweet potatos and squash will have butter and brown sugar etc etc etc.
Sounds good! Enjoy your day and thanks for posting :flowerforyou:0 -
Oh and... I did pre-fill my diary for Thanksgiving. I'm coming out at maintenance. Woot woot!
Just hope I can make myself stick to that and not go back for seconds.
Sounds terrific and I'm so proud of you for dropping 90 HUGE pounds--that's just fabulous! Enjoy your day and thanks for posting:flowerforyou:0 -
I just pre-filled/pre-planned my Thanksgiving diary and I'm THRILLED! Not only will I have 146 extra cals left-over (that's WITHOUT exercising that day). AND the only thing I went over on is PROTEIN and FIBER
and also my sodium by 219 something and My daily goal without exercise is 1450.
Everything else will be below range...ALL of my Macros--WOOT!
I'm going to be pigging-out on ALL of my favorites bigtime and also HALF my cake (or pie in this case) and eat it too. I'm thrilled.
Have you pre-filled your Thanksgiving menu/foods? If so, how's it looking...if not, why not?
I have already figured out what I'm allowed to eat that day (from what will be on my family's menu) and what portion size I'm allowed. However, I haven't yet logged it into my diary.
Sounds great. I knew what I'd be making, but didn't pre-write in into my diary until today. Now I have a guide to help me with the portion control I want. Thanks so much for posting and have a terrific day! :flowerforyou:0 -
Great job OP! This is very inspiring
Thanks Dr.Merc I hope this will be one of the BEST Thanksgiving for you and yours ever! Enjoy :flowerforyou: 0 -
I don't think it's sad. Everyone is here for a journey, and how we achieve it us up for us.
I think it's wonderful to have a plan to tackle and enjoy the holiday.0 -
I pre-logged mine too just to make sure I could fit it in my calorie budget. I understand why some peeps would think this is crazy. Why not indulge and celebrate this American tradition? For me, I am choosing not to go crazy with calories on Thanksgiving because I went crazy with calories on nearly every single day before rejoining MFP two weeks ago. I overindulged way too many times which is what got me in this mess to begin with. I am also afraid that if I ignore my calorie max, I will not be able to get back on track the next day, or the next By exercising some portion control on this special day, I am proving to myself that I can do this. I am proving to myself that I don't have to gorge myself in order to show my gratitude for life's blessing or to have a meaningful day with my family. I am changing my life so thatit no longer has to revolve around food. That is what I am thankful for.
Fot those of you who are advanced enough in your weight loss/stay healthy efforts to eat a ton on Thanksgving, good for you! I hope I am there one day too.
WOW...you are just so tremendous, I LOVE what you've said here. You're my shero! Have a terrific day and thank you ever so much for posting!!!! :flowerforyou: 0 -
just did this this morning.................hoping it works for me.....lol
If not, if it doesn't work...it's all good as they say! Enjoy your day and thanks so much for posting :flowerforyou:0
