    Even if you guys were having the traditional dinner, there's a lot of calories in that traditional dinner too. It's just one day, it shouldn't ruin all of your progress. Maybe drink a lot of water, get a workout done early in the day, etc

    If it is worrying you that much start to keep 50 calories a day back, eat at maintenance that day plus the extra from the 50 calories.
    Enjoy your pizza, log it and move on with happy memories of a nice time spent with your family :)

    that is great, I feel guilty about eating out but what the heck, do what makes you happy, that is what we are doing and family can join us or not,doing simple like K&W cafeteria so it is not very expensive and everyone can pay for their own. Someone is sick and doesn't show, and other excuses so this is a lot less complicated.

    It's Thanksgiving. Relax and enjoy the holiday.

    Resume with your calorie goal when it's over.
