    I gain 3 lbs , this wasn't too bad for me. I did not eat a lot of Christmas food, it was the Christmas desserts. I love sweets. I still have one cake in the house I got to get it out of my house . I ate portion of food , but ate lot of different sweet, not good at all. I thought I had gain more than 3 lbs. back on track now.

    I lost 0.6 pounds. I went mildly over Christmas Eve and Christmas day, but nothing crazy. I exercised everyday, like I said I would.

    I didn't feel like I deprived myself of anything.

    Up a pound. Did the same thing at Thanksgiving, but that pound and two of it's buddies were gone a week later. I ate stuff on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day that I would not normally eat but still managed to keep it at around 1200 calories both days. Not blaming what I ate. I think it's water.... can't be fat because I didn't eat enough for that. Not worried about it at all.... just sort of a grumbly feeling seeing that scale tick UP instead of down no matter what the reason is. :grumble:

    I lost 2.5 pounds. It's kind of freaking me out, actually. Not that I'm not glad about it, but just sort of "wtf?" I went over by several hundred calories for four days in a row - two of those days I'm sure I was almost over 1,000. I did continue to exercise, though.

    Weight loss is freaking weird.

    I only gained half a lb. which isn't bad considering that I went to seven Christmas parties this month! I did skip the gym last week and feel super flabby, but just went back last night and look forward to knocking off that pesky half lb. by the end of the week!

    I don't know. I refuse to be a slave to a number on the scale.

    I've maintained thank goodness. I limited myself to one trip through the meal line and one trip to the dessert table at each of the three locations I visited on Christmas. I also did some light exercise at home throughout the week for good measure.

    I weighed yesterday, but the last time I weighed in was two weeks ago. (I don't like to weigh in, but man this christmas I just had to see)

    Looks like I only gained 2.2lbs. Can't complain as I did eat a lot of junk on Christmas eve and Christmas, although it was as healthy as I could make it. My parent's came to visit and her mantra it seemed was "Well it's Christmas." But I didn't like that thought so I tried to skip lunch if I was having a big dinner etc etc.

    Unofficially I have lost over a pound but my offcial weigh in day is Tuesday mornings. Ask me again on New Years Day and I can give you a solid answer.

    So far, 3 pounds. That's down from the initial five pound gain. I did the same thing at Thanksgiving and lost it again within a week. My calorie count has been fine, but my sodium intake has been crazy hign. It helps me a lot to be able to track my sodium, the correlation between weight gain and sodium intake is helpful to my sanity.

    I lost two pounds. I felt like I was eating like crap this holiday season, as I didn't have as much control over my food environment with all the parties/vacations/ etc.

    I guess it wasn't as bad as I thought.

    Ok, you want to talk about MESSED UP!!! I have had stomach flu since Christmas morning, the only day I've held anything down was yesterday..and I GAINED 2 lbs!!!!!! At least those pounds most of you have gained were from YUMMY FOOD!!! Grrrrrrr! I am refusing to log the gain though as I REFUSE to believe it's really a fact!
