    Down several tenths of a pound. I credit moderate portions and lots of activity.

    Up three pounds, presumably water weight. I'm sure I'll stall this week but it's worth it.

    Gorged on vegetables yesterday. I mean, vegetables smothered in butter and cheese, but they were veggies all the same. So... got my vitamins in, I'm counting it as a win.

    Up .6 of a pound, but I just delivered a giant food baby, so I think I might even have a loss. I'm not going to bother weighing again 'till tomorrow.

    Nary an ounce gained here, and I ate like a mad cat. I learned long ago the scale is not the best tool for judging gains or losses, and so much can affect your weight. I did for a long time way my self daily to see the fluxes in my weight. Found a pattern, and I found the certain foods (i.e. Heavily salted foods) can effect me by as much as 7 lbs.
    Now, days like Thanksgiving no longer stress me, and I simply enjoy a few bites of everything. I get to relax, enjoy and truly splurge without guilt or ill effects. It really is about knowing your body, and staying well hydrated to flush the excess toxins from your system.

    Up 0.2 lbs. Small portions except on the sweet potato pie and the mac and cheese. Oh well.

    Pounds mean nothing to me, the way my clothes fit and my measurements are what matters most to me. Trash the scale.

    I'm only up one pound. My family helped serve Thanksgiving dinner at a woman's homeless shelter and I'm sure it was loaded with sodium. So worth it though!!

    I was up 3 lbs. (in one night) I am not upset in the least but it does make me realize how easy it is to gain and why we have such an obesity epidemic.

    Same here! I know there is no way I gained 3 lbs. So I just gave it a chuckle and moved it. It is scary how easy it is to gain. :'(

    down a pound

    I made my own special dinner cooked from scratch
    Only adding to the whole dinner was the french fried onions But i knew they contain a lot of salt so only did 1 oz on my portion

    But now tonight...sighs...... traditional night out ( couple times a year) were a friend of us plays here in Las Vegas. We always visit her concerts but before we eat a slice of Pizza........

    So we will see tomorrow what the scale says
    One thing i know i will work my *** off today and the coming days in the gym

    Down a pound :) I had mostly veggies for apps (and a scallop wrapped in bacon), moderate (for me) wine and no dessert. But I felt good!

    No weight change.

    I have been dreading the arrival of the holiday season, as I have recently managed to lose almost 40 lbs., and have been worried about slipping back into my old habits and gaining it back when presented with the opportunity to stuff myself with treats.

    Lunch: 4 oz. turkey, one slice of bread's worth of stuffing, and one dab of gravy (which I should not eat) on my last piece of turkey as a treat. Oh yes, a bowl of fruit and some raw vegetables with a small amount if dip. Due to the grandchildren's visit and a family discussion, I did not eat the healthy snacks I am supposed to eat between meals, and dinner--pretty much the same, minus fruit--was late. MFP yelled at me for not eating enough for the day, but I did not want to stuff myself just before bed.

    Don't worry, you'll poop it out soon, if you haven't already ;) One day won't mess you up!

    Down .2 pound. Thanksgiving grub isn't really my deal so it was small portions and stopping well before the point of stuffed, but I did have a piece of home made chocolate pie and it was everything I'd hoped it would be.

    Looking at the plates being made around me though... wow.
