All you moms - will you be pigging out or watching your calories on Mother's Day? I haven't decided yet - going to Macaroni Grill.

    We did our fun family thing on Thursday (including a mommy picked sushi restaurant), so I don't think it's going to be a blowout here. Leftover pizza is probably the most decadent thing on the menu (ha!)

    I'm not the mom, but my family just got home from an Italian restaurant where they take delicious food and then smother it in cheese. Glad I spent an hour at the gym this morning, will be doing so again tomorrow to offset the leftovers! But it was fun and delicious and totally worth it.

    Ate cautiously today to celebrate at an Italian restaurant in terms of portions, but ate lots of high caloric foods and well over my daily normal intake. I say log it no matter what, I did and if it is your truth then it's okay. Don't stop living, just try to limit it to the one meal and get back on the saddle. Happy Mother's Day!

    Absolutely. And I'll do the same next weekend when I go out for my birthday. :)

    I'll probably eat well for the first half of the day, and then come dinner time will survive on too much grease and a bottle of wine with NO KIDS!

    Dinner, hotdogs at my inlaws. Portion control shouldn't be a problem. (tomorrow, my son and his cousin have a birthday, so that kinda overshadows mother's day)

    ummm... kind of???

    I'm usually all about taking holidays off, but I'm really motivated to get my last 10 pounds off so I've committed to doing a fairly strict 28-day cut.

    We are going to a Diamondbacks game tomorrow, though, and I LOVE ballpark food.

    My plan is to start the day with a protein shake, not eat until I get to the game, and then pick one meal item, one snack item, and some ice cream to eat during the game. After I get home, I'll try to minimize the eating and stay fairly clean and protein-oriented. I'm okay with going over calories a bit, but I don't want to get too carried away, like I usually do on special occasions.

    We usually go out for Mother's Day, but my husband is returning from a work trip and I'm not sure if he'll get here in time. If we do go out, I'll try to keep within my usual calories but won't freak if I go over a little.

    I'm eating what I want to, and making it fit into my daily plan. No celebration here. I try not to celebrate with food anymore.

    I am every day. I don't gain but I'd like to lose the last 2kgs. I can't get back into worrying about it when I look fine already. It's hard. Maybe one day I will.

    We're going for sushi so we'll see how it goes. I can pretty much guarantee that I'll be over on carbs though. Happy Mother's Day all!

    Taking wife and mom (and everyone else) to a buffet tomorrow. I have the best of intentions until I break the plane of the front door.
