I was almost 3,000, I think, which was pretty bad... But Sunday and today are much better, so I hope that means I didn't screw up my weigh in on Wednesday too badly... *fingers crossed!*0

So I went and had a nosey look at your diary... There's not even any BBQ... O.O I was expecting the biggest bbq list ever with ribs n cheese burgers pies n cake and red white and blue cup cakes... : /
Tacos, sausages, bacon wrapped, cheese stuffed jalapenos were all bbq.0 -
In the interest of full disclosure, I am bloated by about 6 pounds. Will probably take a week or so to get rid of it.0

Raspberry Pop Tarts are the cure for this.0 -
I went over by 900, but I didn't log any activity that I did & its the first time I have gone over, so I put it behind me & moved on!0

Seems legit0 -
I am truly amazed by some of these calorie counts.
I'm kinda glad I didn't get invited to a barbecue this year.0 -

The 3rd (above) was my indulgent day (and to be honest, I really felt like I didn't do that badly at the cookout I went to). Friday I made up for it by drinking most of my calories and running between house parties. Then Saturday I crushed a 600 calorie hot fudge sundae for good measure. Refusing to get on the scale until Friday morning.

No regrets.0 -
Didn't track that day, but if I had to guess, I'd say somewhere around 2500. I got pretty drunk and I love BBQ food.0

1649 calories for me. Didn't do much of anything for the fourth but I did see a parade and a fireworks show and had a milkshake with a friend 0
-
Wow...I had about 2500 and thought I was really bad..... I'm not sure how you managed that many!0

Had a healthy breakfast of bran flakes and almond milk and then ran 10 miles and had just a turkey sandwich and fruit for lunch...but then it went south the rest of the day. Potlucks and BEER are killers! We did have salmon and steak instead of brats/hot dogs but did I really need all of the other crap too?? Had a healthy breakfast on Saturday and then biked 16 miles...and again it went south, but not as bad as the 4th. Sunday was not much better either. I didn't even open my computer so did not track. I don't know how much I had on Friday but it was a lot. . It was a great weekend! Back on track today.
If I ran 10 miles one day and biked 16 miles the next, I'd be eating whatever the heck I wanted!! LOL0 -
I went over by about 700.0
-
I know I chowed down on 7 chili cheese dogs, fries, BBQ chicken, sausage, pork chop, ham and cheese waffle, protein shake, lots of sprite, and a whole box of lil debbie fig bars, 100% unacceptable,

Holy crap! 9500?
OK, by my count, that's 39 Reduced Fat Hebrew National Hot Dogs (w/ buns) *or* 19 Bacon ’n Cheese Double Steakburgers from Steak 'n Shake *or* 205 medium sized slices of bacon *or* 10 DQ Large Choco Cherry Love Blizzards!!!
Seriously. Wow. :drinker:0 -

I eat 2500 on workout days. :indifferent: I'd be pretty disappointed if that's all I ate during a celebration.
I was around 1k over on the 4th, but that wasn't because it was the 4th, it was because I felt like it. This Saturday I'm cooking out and I've got plans for potato salad, mac and cheese, burgers, chicken, ribs, a brownie bottom cheeescake, cupcakes, booze...and little activity.
I shall try to track accurately and see how I stack up against the great Magerum0 -

THAT is a menu.0 -

Oh. And vegetables. I guess. If people are into that. I'll have to ask.0 -
I don't log. I know I ate pounds and pounds of my homemade smoked pork, ate bowls and bowls of strawberry shortcake (BIG bowls), and drank and boatload of beers. And I sat and talked to family for the whole weekend.
Yup. Great holiday in my books. 0 -

I suspect BF and I will be having some sort of psuedo celebration this week- i bought steak and corn and baked beans last week- but we didnt' get make it- so I froze the steak- probably bust it out and do that- I may even make oreo brownies- and have those with ice cream
gotta dig deep and live a little sometimes!0 -
Wait. Why didn't I get the memo that July 4th was official "Eat Until You Puke....and Then Eat Some More" day? :huh:
I barely hit 1300 calories (my usual) AND I ate ribs, shrimp kebabs, and Talenti Gelato. Delish!0 -

I could have easily eaten more, didn't puke. I eat 1300 calories of desert every, single, night. Your daily calories make me sad.0 -

Magerum, you're my hero. What all did you consume to get you there?
Apologies I'm too lazy to go through the thread and see if you said already...)0 -

1300? And you weren't puking? Because that sounds like the amount of calories I eat while puking.
I'm confused.0
