    Yes I'm stuffed. Big crowd at my brother's house, and simply too much food.

    We had the grandmothers over for Christmas so dinner is over by 4:15. No I can use my extra time to boil up my turkey carcass. Yay.

    Hope everyone had a fun day today

    I am logging my food today. For the first time in months! It is bad. Please excuse me if I'm cranky for the next year

    I've been out of it for the last week thanks to the holidays, and the scale this morning wasn't pretty. However, as I know you don't gain 10 lbs in a week, that I had ham yesterday (always causes me to pick up water weight), and that its "that" time for me, I know that what I saw this morning isn't a reflection of what is my true weight, so I'll just get back on the horse today and get back into my routine, and everything should turn out fine. I'll give it a few days before I take a true weigh in, and we'll see what the real damage actually was.

    Meanwhile, today is probably a really good day for a fast :)

    I'm scared to weigh in. It's also "that time" for me so I know I am extra spongy because of that. Once it's over I'll maybe hit the scale or just workout more with my newly found time post holidays

    Holiday goodies are everywhere. I have to wear a swimsuit in 3 weeks. Pray for me...

    Yeah, we still have so many leftovers, all of them are kamakazi calorie explosions! I haven't even got to supper yet and I have just over 200kcal left!

    Too many leftovers, already sick of ham, if that's possible, also still some Christmas eve eve pasta in fridge. Physical therapy only thing keeping me anywhere near active right now, great holiday but even better times to come in Jan with a return to physical activity.

    Massive amounts of leftovers are such a killer for me, because I just can't let food go to waste! Also, when the food is free...goodbye goals 😭

    was it the starving kids in Africa? Or perhaps India? lol I was raised with that "you don't leave anything on your plate" and "finish your dinner" mentality, and now its really coming to haunt me because I too hate to leave anything. The idea of just eating half of a meal never really works for me. The other day, to save calories, I got my near-daily turkey slider and decide to only eat half the bun, and it was a hard time throwing that top away! It was a little easier the next day - I through it out for the birds :)

    It’s the day after Christmas and there’s tons of left overs in the house! I’m just trying to find the energy to get moving. I’m in my mid 40’s and I’ve never had trouble losing weight until now. Hoping to find inspiration in this great group of people.

    So we went for a walk to get brunch. Then groceries. Luckily I had a helper because I bought too many groceries for one person to carry home but I guess that makes my walk home with a little weight resistance. Now it's preparing the leftovers for a new meal for Saturday and making some new to add to it. It never ends
