    I did great! 5-6k calories at a guess, lots of turkey and pie.

    Enjoyed every minute of it. Back on track now.

    I did GREAT! Didn't log anything. I got up and went for a jog and did P90X yoga before I started cooking. Stayed in the kitchen all day eating and drinking and cooking. I only filled my plate once at actual dinner though - where I usually fill it two or three times. Had turkey, stuffing, cranberries, potatoes, green beans, rolls, gravy on everything. Drank a six pack while I was cooking, two glasses of wine with dinner, and a 22 ounce Russian Imperial Stout with my slice of pumpkin pie and slice of pecan pie for dessert.

    I did awesome. I enjoyed my day. I didn't think about MFP and I ate what I wanted. I had fun with my family and I relaxed and watched lots of football. For me that is what was important. Did I gorge? No but I didn't worry about it either.

    I ate everything and anything I wanted. Hit 5k + calories, logged everything that passed my lips. The next morning, I set PR's in the gym and was back on track. 2 days later, my calories for the week are back in check. Looking forward to Christmas dinner already.

    HORRIBLE! But now I'm back on track and about to head out to the YMCA for some cardio! Was pretty bad Friday too with the leftovers... example: someone at work brought something i'd never seen - a cheesecake iced with buttercream icing, then topped with a layer of red velvet cake, then iced again with buttercream! Sinful... my two favorite desserts... but that's over now and I'm back in the zone! ...Aside from the return of the sweets cravings... but I'll beat those with yogurt and protein bars. And of course there were pictures taken where I looked like a moo cow, so that's more motivation!

    The protein shake helps me lose weight.

    I used the food database the night before and logged estimates of foods I know I'd be eating just to get a round about idea. I put a little bit of everything on my plate and ate until I was full, but not uncomfortably. I was quite satisfied :)

    I did terrible, but I am back on track today. However, when I weighed myself this morning, I had lost a pound since my last weigh-in 3 days ago - go figure!

    I logged everything I ate and went over only 150calories... and it was mainly because of a banana I had before bed :)
