So do yall blow it out all day, all weekend, one meal or stay on point for Thanksgiving? I kinda slide all week but don’t blow out any day and I train heavy with volume all week. Water gets high but it goes fast.
Diet has been tight all week and I've been running a decent deficit (longer term plan with this being a mini-cut TG just happens to be in there and I'll use it as a convenient carb up/refeed).
Alcohol will be maybe 1-2 bloody marys. I'm not going to worry about macros and we have a bunch of my favorite stuff so I'll be snacking all day but try not to overdo it - taken me decades to do holiday eating like this and not get too full at any point.
Peppered thick cut bacon
Berry pie
Turkey/stuffing
Cheese and sopresata with crackers
Peppers stuffed with sharp provolone and prosciutto
Quiche (I know but I love it, like egg/cheese/spinach pie)
etc
I send the kids to their moms. I don't have people over. Just took 5iu slin. Now about to eat this all you can eat Korean bbq.
Of course I just order rice. Salad. Chicken. Fish. Beef. Good shit.
Will wake up in the morning full and strong.
Will work out, complete with two cardio sessions thanksgiving.
I had my family gathering last week in Malibu.
I'll have some protein powder for breakfast then nothing else till dinner which my family start just after 12. I don't eat till i am uncomfortable any more. Gave that up when i was a kid in my 50's. Couple plates of food and a couple pieces of pie along with appetisers is about it. Then dinner that night.
So uncomfortable at the Korean BBQ. But tomorrow's workout will be very powerful.
I'm a walking furnace right now. Burning up.
That said.
Given it's Thanksgiving.
What a great nation we live in. Where anyone with hard work ethic and some sense can make it happen. Things like.. a big house. Nice cars. Liquidity to do whatever the F you want(within reason of course).. Unlimited food options.
Note... Just because I love the states doesn't mean other countries aren't great. Just that in the states I can do the things I love to do(as guaranteed by the US Constitution).
I’ve done it every which way. I’m sommmewhat trying to stay on plan this holiday so I basically backload all my cals. Just protein veg all day. So by the end of the day I have lots of fat and carbs to throw down. Pretty easy to not go over your macros doing it that way. I also try to do some cardio that morning.
I’m a Fuckin fat kid and have a sweet tooth so I just have to watch myself or I’ll be eating holiday bark and Sees candy at 11am watching football for 5 hours
Let me emphasize my previous statement about how much of an ass I plan on making of myself today..I just took an extra digestive enzyme, put one more in a bag to take with me, then took a famotidine and a pepto bismol pill just to allow me to eat more before I feel like shit..
Gonna do a lot of drinking too!
I get one day a year to go after food the way a fat man eats a mail order brides ass! I’m not missing it!
