Day 3 (it counts days funny, LOL), Week 1 Holiday Cruise to Lose!

(leaving this portion the same as we all need the reminders as T-Day gets closer, LOL) Welp, Turkey Day is upon us! Go ahead and indulge a little. Make sure you drink A LOT of water and try to make the bigger portions on your plates the healthy stuff like turkey without the skin and salad. Then take a little of each of the temptations that you just cannot live without! Make sure one meal is a splurge but not the rest! (well for those of you you have to attend more than one, you will just have to make up for it in other ways! ;))


Meant to be on the lower end of the calorie spectrum yesterday...instead I went ever so slightly over my calorie count. But I exercised and my deficit was fine so it is all good. Dinner was at Chilis....MMM I LOVE their buffalo chicken salad. I allowed myself to eat as much as I wanted of it because I had not eaten much and was way low on calories for the day :) But the soup and the luxury of a root beer and the one cookie when I got home added up LOL.


Old Man Scale: Ugh! I expected a Water Weight Gain from yesterday. I really was not THAT bad. It has to be from all the salt at Chili's. 3lbs up. Time to be ultra good on the water and flush that away. I was not expecting it to be 3lbs worth. Of course I think TOM may be on his way as well.... Makes stretching that much harder but I will keep plugging! I definitely want to hit at least 240 by the 30th!


High goal: 235 by the 30th of November. 5.5 from now. Definitely a s..t...r...e...t...c...h, esp with Turkey day int he mix, but we shall see ;)

Christmas Challenge Goal:Time to break this one down.
Floor goal: Maintain at 240 (It IS the holidays)
Midrange goal: lose 5 to 235
Ceiling goal: 230 by December 25th!! 36.5 from when I first started watching and 10.5 from now!

Next Mini: 240 (1/2 a lb, WEEEEE) then on down, down down! (My bar should go orange sometime VERY soon, now!)

Your game plan for Turkey Day sounds like a winner. I will making all of the "normal" foods and tasting very small portions. The leftovers are what get me. I plan to make small dishes so that we really don't have too many leftovers. I also plan to just throw out what we don't eat. Wasteful? Maybe. I prefer the term "waist-ful." Have a good one! Love ya more than turkey legs Baby!

Since I am going home to Mom's (6 hour drive) Once we come home Sunday left-overs are done for :) I guess I am lucky that way.

Oh, I am so sure Chili's food is LOADED with salt! That little gain will be gone before you know it. The only leftovers I'll have are the dishes I'm making to take to my parents. I'm sure they won't want to keep my healthy stuff! :)

T-Day sound so... official. LOL Those few pounds will be gone in no time. The same thing happens to me every Monday morning because I have my "cheat meal" Sunday night. The scale shows a 2-3 pound gain, but it's always gone in the next day or so. ((thinks to self... mmmmm... root beer)) Happy Thanksgiving!

Even if I indulge on Turkey day, it's the leftovers that get me. You'll be fine if you just make it ONE meal and not a week's worth. Happy Thanksgiving!
