I have actually been scared to step on the scale! I set out with great intentions and then I was bombarded with bread, cookies, clams casinos - seriously what's a girl to do?
I must say that I don't think I OVER ate, and I certainly did not eat nearly the amount I normally would have. I did, however, eat my fill.
For a day and a half all my good intentions went by the wayside and I indulged in my family's wonderful gatherings and party food!
Today I took the plunge and stepped on the scale - I gained 0.2 pounds... not nearly as bad as I thought. I got back into my routine last night - treadmill time and food planning - and I am feeling pretty good!
One beautiful bright spot on my holiday gain was my Christmas present - a FitBit!!! Check them out if you don't know what they are, it is very motivational for me. I have had it for 2 days now and I just keep trying to beat my previous days score. Today I set out to see how many flights of stairs I could get in, without actually running up and down them of course. I LOVE that it connects into MFP and adjusts my calories accurately. I even wore it to track my sleep last night - in 7 hours I woke up 15 times!! I am sure I will have more to say about my wonderful new gadget soon!
My final thoughts for this post - I would say I survived the holiday! I will take that 0.2 gain and make it disappear. I enjoyed my holidays in addition to being conscious of my intake and that to me is success!
