Going to work out before Easter diner at mom's...... I know there will be food there that I will have to avoid... But just in case I am tempted........I am going to TRY to make good choices.....Going to take a pic of my food on my phone so that when I get home I can add up my food intake...I am working out before we go..And may work out again when I get back. Anyone else???????

    I am in the same boat. I have already thrown in a workout this morning and plan to hit the gym when I get back from dinner. :) I hope you have a great Easter. :D

    Today is a rest a for me.... Plus we don't really 'do' Easter, so we're having lasagne of tea which fits my macros!

    Double workout seems overkill, but then again I've done it.

    Just stick to single servings, and don't go crazy with the desserts. Have one piece and then call it quits. No reason to get all worried and think you have to work out more than needed. And if you are tha worried about it, just have lighter meals tomorrow.

    i knew my dinner would top 1,700 cals, so i planned it the night before, cut back breakfast, skipped lunch entirely, and did 140 mins cardio.

    i'm on maintenance, but everyone is entitled to a feast every now and again. i still came in under cals, and dinner was awesome.
