Sounds like true confession time . . . I'll confess! My Christmas eating could have been worse, but it could also have been much better.
End of confession.

I think we all need to go to Baptist prayer meeting with Cooker and then to confession with Mary. Our sins sound like many!
I know mine were off the scale. Wow, Cooker, I am very proud of you and proud of myself. I am stable at 166 lbs...I love stability There are changes around my waist and the distribution of fat, which is great.
I hope I wont' be tempted to eat all the sweets we have ! It is going to take lots of strong will
I will send to you some truffles if you like them, or snickers is your favorite?

I think there should be a tax on insufficient post-Christmas weight gain. It could go toward a weight loss stimulus package for those less fortunate.
Actually, Cooker that is wonderful; good for you. I think I gained two pounds upon my first scent of Christmas dinner (that is dinner #1 and then two pounds for dinner #2).

I missed the nekkid weigh in this morning, since I WENT TO THE GYM before breakfast so maybe I'll post tomorrow.
But maybe I won't, either!
I have steely resolve to chuck these extra pounds, so missing today's weigh in won't hurt me--much!
Congratulations to all who managed to lose weight and/or stay the same! You did great!

I'm cautiously optimistic that I have put the brakes on the holiday binging!
We had a house full of children yesterday, and I baked cookies in between card playing. Happily the younger crowd kept consuming the cookies as quickly as they came out of the oven, and this morning, there are only 3 left to tempt me!
I also received an ipod shuffle for Christmas, and my two post-Christmas workouts have been easier and of longer duration using it. I've actually looked forward to stepping on the elliptical machine!
And my last accomplishment . . . we went to the movies last night, and no candy, popcorn, soda . . . nothing! No small feat considering the movie lasted 2 hours and 45 minutes!
I can only hope my fellow throwdowners (I won't mention any names) have also regained their motivation.

Good for you Mary!
Did you see "Australia" by any chance? I know that it is 2 hours 45 minutes long also. Then again, "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" is long also.
We saw "Australia" and loved it. We want to see "Marley & Me" and I want to see "Benjamin Button." There so few movies that we want to see anymore; we'd better catch a few while there's actually some good ones showing.
I hoping to do better today foodwise. We've been preoccupied with moving lately.

We saw the Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Wise. I loved it, and Bob said that he really enjoyed it. Maybe I identified with it more strongly than others would, because there were several pivotal "baby" scenes and we are involved in baby issues around here!
Having said that, with New Orleans as the location, and Hurricane Katrina as the backdrop, I found myself tearing up throughout, and it wasn't a sad movie!
If you all go see it, let me know your thoughts.
Mary, sounds like you will get through the eating holidays without too much weight gain. Congratulations. I'm still eating a bit more than I should of all the goodies.
I want to see Benjamin Button.
Yesterday we saw "Doubt." It's excellent. but very intense...may be a serions candidate for best pic of the year.

You guys all sound so merry!!
Lots of celebrating!! Best wishes to all the long-time honeymooners! Us too!! Our wedding anniversary is the 3rd of January (28 years) and with New Year's on Wednesday and my birthday tomorrow, we are busy!
I've been doing pretty good weight-wise and being very careful with portions. I have been bouncing around a pound up and pound down and am just very very glad that the holiday feasting has not added much to my waistline. With no exercise it certainly isn't going away, but once the children are back at school and normalcy returns, I'll be out pounding the pavement again for great gains (well losses, actually, of course) in 2009.
So everyone...the new year approaches! Make some plans to get moving!!

The Month After Christmas
T'was the month after Christmas, and all through the house Nothing would fit me, not even a blouse.
The cookies I'd nibbled, the eggnog I'd taste And the holiday parties had gone to my waist.
When I got on the scales there arose such a number!
When I walked to the store (less a walk than a lumber).
I'd remember the marvelous meals I'd prepared; The gravies and sauces and beef nicely rared, The wine and the rum balls, the bread and the cheese And the way I'd never said, "No thank you, please."
As I dressed myself in my husband's old shirt And prepared once again to do battle with dirt--- I said to myself, as only I can "You can't spend a winter disguised as a man!"
So--away with the last of the sour cream dip, Get rid of the fruit cake, every cracker and chip Every last bit of food that I like must be banished Till all the additional ounces have vanished.
I won't have a cookie--not even a lick.
I'll want only to chew on a long celery stick.
I won't have hot biscuits, or corn bread, or pie, I'll munch on a carrot and quietly cry.
I'm hungry, I'm lonesome, and life is a bore--- But isn't that what January is for?
Unable to giggle, no longer a riot.
Happy New Year to all and to all a good diet!
