    Without counting, I'm assuming about 2500

    2711. That's a guesstimate. I savored Every. Single. One.

    I came in under 2k. I'm so disappointed in myself. I figured I would hit at least 4k. Thankfully we are celebrating again on Sat with the other side of the family.

    1,990 calories. I logged very closely with only a couple of educated guesstimates.

    I got in 2 hours of walking at 3.0 mph and wound up just 106 calories over my daily goal. Honestly I did not particularly try to keep it THAT low. I was expecting to be over by 500 or more.

    I even ate a bigger than usual breakfast and some chocolate and tea at 11 pm. But for the evening meal I had a tiny snack plate with like a tbsp of each item, so I'm sure that helped.

    Not quite 3300, which is about 1900 over my goal. :confused:

    Last night, the scale said I'd gained 6 lb from yesterday morning. Scales lie. :angry:
    This morning, the scale said I'd gained 3 lb from yesterday morning. See above, about scales lying. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:
    I didn't eat/drink enough calories to cause 1 lb of gain, and I certainly didn't drink that much water.

    So today, get back on the horse, eat less, exercise more.

    Between running a 5K, spending several hours on my feet cooking, and only a light breakfast and a moderate potion of the main meal, I'd say that I did pretty well. I'm down a few tenths of a pound this morning compared to yesterday.

    2876, but I burned so many calories shoveling the foot of snow that we got that I only went over by 205. Not too shabby ;)

    2442. I gave myself permission to eat whatever I wanted. I log calories just for data and tracking purposes. It was delicious and I enjoyed every bite.

    Right around 3500, but I'm overestimating a lot. I doubt I ate an entire half cup of sweet potato.

    i logged but it was not that accurate I came in at about 5500 but I think it was more ad I did not log any of the appetizers…salami, crackers, cheese,etc…so I am guessing I cam in closer to 6000….

    I am hoping my estimates are really off. I came in at 891 calories for the whole day. So not the 1400 i was expecting just from dinner.

    :(

    My daily goal is 1330 and I was a bit under that.
    I ate everything I wanted and was full.

    I think I was under 2500 for the whole day. I really didn't do too bad. I actually weighed in down this morning. #winning!
