    I'm not logging on Thanksgiving and I won't go over because I never do. The company is always more interesting than the food.

    I'll log, but I'm not going to be neurotic about it.

    Scooby had some pointers about drinking a couple cups of water before hand, plan on having two plates: the first mostly veggies and lean meats with a small sample of other dishes. The second, wait a little bit after the first, talk with family and what not so you don't pile it high when you do go back. :wink:

    Calories, I want to know exactly how much damage I may ( or may not) be doing.

    I don't over stuff myself even on holidays, but my body will be paying the price the day after thanksgiving.. I am going to murder some stuffing. (Usually gluten free for health reasons).

    Nope. I'm going to destroy everything in sight and not feel one lick of guilt about it.
    Although I am curious as to what the counts would be...but with everyone cooking this and that and not knowing what or how much of what they put into everything that seems pretty close to impossible...and sounds like a pain in the *kitten*. Lol.

    I'm going to log, but I'm sure chocolate pie will set me I've calorie goal... I am breaking my gluten free streak for some stuffing.

    And not 1 single Macro was tracked....

    Good foods? bad foods? haha, this is too funny.

    Anywho; yes I will track, even if i dont enter it in I will still track. You mean to suggest that after days/months of tracking that one does not have a general idea? One always does, like a glass thats been shattered, ignorance cannot totally be replaced w/knowledge at this point. Happy Festivus!!

    From the great wise Words of Kane a.k.a Timbahwolffff

    "Practice discipline.
    or practice being disappointed. Your choice"

    I will still wake up on Friday shredded after this Festivus splurge or non-splurge. Is chipotle open on thanksgiving?? LOL

    I'm going to log everything, only because I never logged what a normal eating day is like - just started logging at a deficit. So I want to see how many calories I'm gonna eat. :D

    I'm so proud of my day yesterday. I logged everything and I came in at 2708 for the day!
    I'm at maintenance so I was only over by around 900 calories!

    I counted calories. I knew the macros were going to be off.
