I just tried to log what I ate yesterday. Just a bite or two of most things. Didn't realize how many calories were in the eggnog or the piece of apple pie. Still felt good about the eating. I only filled my plate about half full compared to the overflowing plates everyone else had. Wasn't full, but satisfied. Will post my weight on Sunday. I am up around 3 pounds for the last 2 or 3 days.

Thanks for that comment about not eating it just because it's there and a holiday. I think I do that too often. I'm going to try to start thinking of it as would I leave my house and go and get this if it wasn't there. maybe that will help.

Thatta girl! I passed up the 2 pies that were at our house. The only indulgence for me was a cup of mac & cheese. I spent a lot of $$ on the cheese so it was a must have for me. Everything else on the plate was within my WOE.

Good choice on the dessert and leaving the rest. I didn’t have that kind of control yesterday. Mindless eating at its finest lol. 2800-3000 for me but that’s about what I expected (2500+). Sounds like you did very well!

Fritzy, Keyten, Chris, Peggy, Angel, Becc, Peep, WFN, Princess, Binky and Liv - thank you all for commenting and supporting. I really didn't think of it so much as being 'good' or 'bad'... just 'would I have gone out to get this on purpose?' and if the answer was no, I passed.

Neither prime rib or 'Nawlins - I just served homemade chili & jalapeno poppers (Texas Twinkies) as everyone had at least one 'other' Turkey & dressing meal before getting to my house.

Mac N Cheese... yeah, it's starting to feel like an omen indeed. If I decide to fulfill this omen I'm going to do Blue Cheese Mac & Cheese. Sooo good with bacon. It takes the M&C to a whole new level.

It is so freaking good. I made the 'fear factor face' the first time I heard it too but I had to wipe that look off my face really fast. Along with the cheese when I wanted to dive face first into the bowl.

Bells, your BCM&C reminds me of my favorite potato salad I used to get at Pavillion's - Red White & Blue potato salad was out-of-this-world delicious!!! Yes, it had bacon too. Yummers!!! 😋

Becc - Mmm.. what's the red part? Tomato or bell pepper?

Chris, exactly! And so worth it, once in a blue cheese moon.

Ooh... That reminds me of the Mac and cheese place in the dells where I had the jalapeño popper Mac and cheese. Omgosh!!! Delightful! ❤️

Wait.. they stuffed the jalapeno with M&C? Who are these geniuses!!

No..but you can invent that. Maybe I didn't explain well. The whole place was Mac and cheese entrees and the one I chose was jalapeño inspired so lots of cheesey pepper deliciousness mixed into the Mac and cheese. Can't remember what else.
