To my fellow Canadian MFP'ers I think that will I just log out for the rest of the weekend and get back to the program on Tuesday.
Turkey, Yams, Mashed potatoes and Gravy , maybe even some stuffing, Yum Yum.

    Not a good idea. You don't have to sit in the corner and eat lettuce but be conscious of your food choices. You can enjoy the food and fellowship without stuffing yourself. Be accountable to yourself.

    Happy Thanksgiving!

    I will still be logging, but I am hoping to have time for my normal work out plus a very brisk walk to buy me some extra calories. I won't care too much if I go over though.

    Having the big dinner tonight, I am not going to log and even enjoy some pumpkin pie:) if I took the entire weekend off, I would do some serious damage. Enjoy your weekend!

    Woo! Im heading to my parents for some lasanga for thanksgiving. Im Still going to log everything (will have to estimate as its food not made by me and therefore I dont know whats in it exactly) and try to stay around my calorie goals, but enjoy the holidays! =)

    Have fun! Eat an extra piece of pie for me!!:drinker:

    I've started the prep work for tomorrows meal. The cornbread and buttermilk biscuits are baked and ready to go into the dressing. Tomorrow will be turkey roasting, dressing baking, and side throwing together. Tonight I need to mix up the yeast dough for rolls then it's just pulling it all together.

    I still plan to log though. It's just too easy for me to convince myself that 2 cups of mashed potatoes is closer to 1/2cup if I don't keep the accountability.

    Happy Thanksgiving to those celebrating it.

    Happy thanksgiving. :drinker:
    I'm gunna cook up half a turkey, carrots, turnip (or rutabega? Is that what mainlanders call it?) and cauliflower because potatoes aren't worth it.

    Kinda wish I could go home for a big feed, but at least I have control over portions. :smile:

    I dont plan on logging today or tomorrow. I figure ill just get back to my routine on tuesday. I feel like if i logged all of what i ate today id cry. Not to mention these aren't foods i normally eat so i probably wouldn't calculate the calories/serving sizes right anyways.

    Happy thanksgiving to all!

    Did you make that? It looks so cool!

    I actually didn't do too bad yesterday. Although I had to estimate because I didn't weigh things in front of everybody. But I tried to over estimate.

    Happy Canadian Thanksgiving everyone! I started prepping yesterday and woke up early to get an extra workout in so I can enjoy more food, but I'm still logging and not falling off the wagon. :)

    Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

    I'm still logging but I don't really care if I'm over. My boyfriend is traveling on business and it's just me for dinner. I've been over all weekend but still on track to lose my .5 for the week.

    I don't think Thanksgiving is that bad, eat a lot of turkey and veggies with a little bit of mashed potatoes and stuffing, then a small piece of pie. I just had leftover turkey for lunch. Love it!

    Happy Thanksgiving!

    Happy Thanksgiving! Enjoy it for those of us overseas (expatriates) and unable to eat a proper Thanksgiving dinner because they dont have most of the ingredients in my piddly corner of Europe. Dreaming of stuffing and pumpkin pie.
