    LOL at the quick add 4k in calories, but seriously may not be the worst idea....
  • Without a doubt! I'm so proud of the work I've done that I want to keep tracking my progress!

    Yes. I'll log Christmas day just like I log the occasional Christmas cookie and just like I logged Thanksgiving. There are no vacations from a healthy life style and I don't know about you, but I've had enough of allowing myself to do something 1/2-way. Either I'm in it all the way, or I'm not. I've had 20 some years of "days off". That's how I got here in the first place. Mindless eating. I refuse to go back to that place, even for 1 day. It's just not worth it.

    Absolutley not, it will make me depressed. I am however taking a pledge to fix my dinner healthier. Regular yams, no brown sugar or marshmellows. Jello instead of pumpkin pie.. etc. I know that I will be over but not as much as last year. Also, working it hard the next couple of days afterward.

    Nope. I'm not the cook, so there's no way I'd even be able to guesstimate exactly how many calories are in things.

    probably, I might log on with my phone. That will be a little more inconspicuous then getting on the computer while everyone is opening presents and drinking eggnog.
  • Probably will. I don't think I ever gone overboard with my Christmas meals. If I do, it could be a cheat day.

    I'm cooking, therefore, fatty food will be so little and I will steam LOT of carrots and green beans LOL,, love being the cook!

    I'm going to log. I'm planning on going over my limits but, I feel best logging everything - even if it's naughty =)

    Absolutely logging Christmas! If I cannot enjoy Christmas Day because I view it negatively it defeats the purpose of what I am working on. One day does not a lifetime make! I am changing my lifestyle - I am not dieting although obviously I am losing weight. But there is a difference. I am going out tomorrow for our office lunch and Christmas party. I will be over calories. So what? I can burn those extra calories off over the next week and do the same at Christmas.
  • I'll be logging it ahead of time, just like I have done for Yule (21st December). I'm only even eating anything special on the day, because my mum's going to be here. Otherwise; it's just another day, as I celebrate Yule.

    I won't be "pigging out" over the holidays... simply because I don't want to.
    There's no temptation for crap food, because I really don't like most of it! I'm going to be making some homemade desserts based on green tea (my favourite!) and keep everything soya and tofu, entirely because I cannot eat diary, and I damn well love soya and tofu.

    I honestly don't even know what I'd gorge on over the holidays... I think I'd be full after a mince pie, if I liked them, that is! :3

    I am going to log it all but i know i will go over on my calories but I am not going to freak out over it. I have only went over on calories one time since I started logging so I think I'm good.

    Probably will as I am the cook so have already tried to plan what I will eat without going crazy, aiming to stay within my calories by averaging the week and doing plenty of exercise. I want to enjoy a few glasses of Christmas vino!

    Yes! Only because I want to keep my streak going! Haha. But I don't care if I'm 5000 calories over (I hope I'm not, but you know, it's Christmas)

    Certainly will!
  • I promised that as part of this process, I would be honest with myself, so yes. Doesn't mean that I will stress about it, but if I get in the mindset that I will stop logging when it is a bad day for calories, I will sink myself.

    Good question! Got to have a day off the diet I'm thinking. Will still log everything I eat/drink though, so I can balance it out over the following week. 1 day can't make such a huge difference surely?! Don't want to lose my count of days again.. I got to 110 and went away for the weekend and we didn't have wi fi in the hotel so couldn't log in for a few days.. so I had to start at day 1 again! So annoying!

    Sure am! I like the idea of logging it ahead of time so I know how much I should eat to keep on track.

    NOPE!!!!!! I just want to focus on enjoying the day (and the food- lol). If there is one day of the year to take it easy on logging food- its Christmas!
