    Monkey bread plus egg casserole and bacon for breakfast got me close to 1000. Dinner (salami, cheese, ravioli from an Italian market, homemade focaccia and salad) is prelogged at 1000 not including wine or dessert.

    3000 looks totally doable today...

    Mmm, dinner's ready! I'm up to 1854 for the day. Lots of time and calories left for desserts and some hot cocoa tonight :smiley:

    Serious challenge means serious foods, lol! I'm not much of a sweets person, so I'm having some of this for dessert (in my very serious drankin' cup):

    LOL, I learned from the best! I might not finish this steak, getting the meat sweats. But the leftover piece will accompany some fried eggs tomorrow morning:

    I know I "said" I didn't like sweets. So, I changed my mind with that! Hubba, hubba! Enjoy!

    I'm so happy I saw this post!!! I've been so concerned about tonight and tomorrow :( I think 3k seems realistic and I'm going to log so I know for sure but not beat myself up if I go over.

    NEVER beat yourself up over celebrating during the holiday! 3K is my number, too. Is it over my usual goal? Sure is. But it's still under what many of us would have done in the past. At least in my case, I'm sure I hit a number last Christmas (and for a week or more after) that would have broke the MFP app, lol.

    I'll probably eat around maintenance for Christmas. I'm saving up for my trip to Montreal over NYE. Then I'll eat ALL of the foods. Poutine, meat, cheese, wine, etc. I'm so excited and I probably won't even have the time to count :p .

    I have no idea how many calories I had tonight but I'm totally stuffed. I was at 1500 beforehand, and tonight was a buffet and I got about two tablespoons/two square inch servings of each... bacon quiche, veggies quiche, sausage quiche, potatoes and onions, corned beef hash, sweet potato/apple kugel, plain kugel, nutella banana French toast, strawberry cheesecake French toast, polenta, one chocolate pizzelle, two random (small) cookies, and a bit of blondie. I had thirds of both French toasts and probably 600 calories worth of kugel because I just LOVE the stuff.

    Everything was delicious.

    I got curious so I did log Christmas Eve (that's the main event in my family), though not with any degree of accuracy.

    My mom made zacusca, braised cabbage and boeuf salad, hnnghhh!

    End result:
    5500 calories, diary is open if anyone wants details

    ETA : don't mean to brag, but though I don't want more I'd have room for it...

    Yeah I logged too and got pretty much the 2200 calories I had figured out in my head, but of course it's a total guess.

    I honestly don't think I could eat more than 4000 calories a day anymore. And I'm glad I don't drink.

    I logged and I undershot on my goal. I had said 2500-3000. Well I got nearly 3500. Is a WAG (wild @** guess) but still.

    my christmas eve came in at about 3400 calories…so I think 4000 + will be reasonable for tomorrow...

    So my estimated Christmas Eve came to about 3800.. a little sad (considering it is not much more than my daily intake) I had a sick baby to deal with plus I had to leave early. Will try harder tomorrow
