Didn't log; didn't overeat; had a great time. Went shopping this morning.0

its a holiday, why nit pick and count calories...its a day spent with family and friends, enjoy it...it wont kill you0
-
Didnt really count but I'd estimate 2500 or so. I dont drink which def seems to keep the calories lower than most ppl0

I went on a 3 day water fast, starting the day before Thanksgiving, ending today. Lost 3.6 pounds so far. Feel much better than after the usual Thanksgiving overeating. Sent the hubby off to a Thanksgiving party away from home. Think I should do it every year!!!0

I had given myself permission to eat whatever I wanted and however much I wanted - but in the end reflexes kicked in - I took small portions and kept under my daily goal. I had big plans for an 8 mile walk but realized I had too much to do in the kitchen to fit it in - I walk today,0

Under my calorie goal for the day and exercised. I just don't care for the 'it's a holiday, so I'll eat whatever/not log' mentality.0
-
I estimated about 2000 calories for the meal. It didn't seem like a lot when I was eating. I had one plate and a piece of pie. Now, to get back to normal eating/logging0

I haven't had mine yet. We get it today. I've been eating nonstop since Wednesday night. I'm over it.0

Went GREAT, everything tasted wonderful! I cooked. I actually had two big "dinners" (out of what I cooked, I mean - we didn't go to two different places). I didn't gorge, but everything I ate was very, very rich and I did have a honkin' slice of pie. I actually overate by 2500 calories by my calculations, which is less than a pound, so I'm not very worried. It's one day a year.
I had a lot of energy (just from being in a good mood, I guess, because I was up at the crack of dawn) and went for a nice long walk after dinner with my tunes.
My kids were so happy that it was a holiday and they "helped" me cook and were very huggy and kiss-y. I asked them at the table what they're thankful for and my littlest said to me, "I'm thankful for you!" Yup, I was filled up yesterday, including my heart! Great holiday!
We don't have a lot of "fattening" leftovers as the stuffing, mashed potatoes with plenty of butter, etc. were devoured but we have lots of juicy turkey left and I am definitely having that with gravy for dinner tonight. Yum yum.0 -
5500 to 6000 calories give or take, as I was just guestimating…had a great day and enjoyed every second of it…
today back to eating like normal and may or may not get a work out in ..I do not like doing deadlifts with a slight hangover, so may just wait until tomorrow...0 -
I prepared dinner and invited family over. I got so busy cooking dinner, I didn't eat until dinner time came around. I didn't logged or cared about the number of calories but didn't stuffed myself either. I have plenty of leftovers but I am back on track today with tracking, exercise, etc.0
-
heh heh I logged Thanksgiving dinner too. Thanks to whomever put that in the database.0
-
4600ish calories. Not sorry. I'm back on track now.0

I got sick midday and I'm mad about it. I love Thanksgiving. I look forward to seeing family I don't see very often and eating food I don't get any other time of year. I didn't really feel like eating and what I did eat didn't stay down. Plus I had to leave because I was feeling so awful so I didn't get to hang out and play games with my cousins.
I'm planning to make small dishes of a few of my favorite that I missed, but it's just not the same. Why couldn't I have been sick last week?
