    Wow...I had about 2500 and thought I was really bad..... I'm not sure how you managed that many!

    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 Magerum

    THAT is a menu.

    Oh. And vegetables. I guess. If people are into that. I'll have to ask.

    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. :)

    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!

    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!

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

    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...)

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



    I'm confused.

    OMG 1138 carbs!! How is that possible? I would be in a diabetic coma.

    Are you diabetic? If not, you wouldn't be in a coma.

    Yes, I am!

    I didn't log the WHOOOOOOOLE weekend...lol. Of course I gained 3 lbs back, but it was my own fault. Thank goodness it is coming off quick because Monday morning it was back on track.

    You eat while puking? That's quite a feat.

    Course. How else would I have things to puke up?

    Duh.

    I had a 3 day Fourth-Fifth_sixth of July eating rampage. Gained 2 pounds so... at least 7k calories over. I'm damn impressed by your 9.5k calories. I wouldn't be surprised if I ate something similar... which makes ME surprised that I only gained 2 pounds. Clearly that 30min jog I did on the beach helped out a ton ;)

    1861, and a little higher than that on the 3rd, but I had less calories other days, so my calories averaged out to 1722/day for the week, my goal is 1730 so that was good, I am glad when it is that on target.

    Duh.
    But if you're eating while puking how does one go in and the other out at the same time? Wouldn't you have to eat before you puke for it to work properly? Am I being pedantic? :tongue:
