jmb3450's Journal, 16 December 2016

Today is our holiday party at work. I brought in some Grand Marnier balls and a spaghetti squash/sausage casserole. Going to try to stick with meats and veggies, stay away from carb laden things. My weight has been pretty steady, no losses going on but no gains. If I can just maintain that through the holidays I'll be happy. But will try to cut back more severely after today in preparation for Christmas weekend when we'll be travelling to NY making the rounds.

My food diary indicates I should be in a calorie deficit but I have not been weighing and measuring a lot of it so portions are probably larger than I've been eyeballing. According to my fitbit yesterday's calorie burn was over 4,400. Pretty cool, I never stopped until I hit the bed around 11:30. Got my wife's main Christmas present yesterday so the pressure is off!

Weight up a pound this morning due to taste testing the Grand Marnier balls, and having a glass of it. Which led to sampling a couple other treats. 'Twas a necessary evil, or so it seemed at the time. Diet tip - don't drink while goodies are around. :)

Jim, You have to be thankful that your weight is steady, your health is good, and the pressure if off! Good advice on avoiding alcohol when goodies are around. Unfortunately, I didn't follow it last night at the Singleton open house. In a few minutes our office party begins!

Grand Marnier balls, mmmmmmm! I have had rum balls but not those. Tasty little morsels, aren't they? I thought about making the rum balls this year. Then decided to make fudge. (Okay, I admit ... I love fudge. Maybe I should do it. But, ... ugh!) Anyway, you are doing very well maintaining. Great job!
