    LOL I was stunned to also get on & be down half a lb after the Holiday! I was so crazy busy didn't have time to exercise like I usually do, but really watched what I ate so it must have worked! :happy:
    Congrats to you !! Keep up the good work! :flowerforyou:

    :bigsmile: Good for you! I too was afraid, but pleasantly surprised to be down 1/2 pound! I didn't log since Thursday, I've been careful though, but am having a heckuva time today - been on steroids since Saturday for this nasty, nasty cough that won't go away.....boy those sure make you hungry! I'm trying to load up on "good for you stuff"!

    Have a great day everyone!

    Congrats! That is great!

    I am wondering if the holiday was a way to shock our systems into losing weight. Check out the breaking plateaus thread for more info...

    Weird that a really high calorie day will jumpstart your metabolism like that, but it does work sometimes!
