I bike 20 miles a day. I ain't scared...

I had multiple helpings of many of those and went back for seconds and thirds, and there appears to be no way to calculate that. Stupid calculator.

It's taken me a year to lose 30lbs. I am scared.

When I was at my parents house today I weighed myself since I don't have a scale. I didnt like the number I saw. It's at least 15 pounds more than I'd like. It's really a shame I'm too lazy to do anything about it

Wouldn't you have to like, ya know, care in the first place?

/doesn't care right now
//knows she'll lose her excess chub when she gets a new job

Calculator doesn't ask about any of your current stats (ex, weight) and probably also assumes no elevation changes, so it's just as useful to you as if they had pulled the numbers out of their asses.

I went the lazy route and got a running computer.

I think it's for midgets with gastric bypass surgery.

Hit the gym hard the day before TG, and your automatically burning calories the next day. Makes for a more pleasurable feast in more ways than one.

I'll be swimming a mile in 30 min on Sunday. So I guess I'm good. Still, I wish my belly didn't double as a flotation device.

...or you can do what my slim Bro-in-law does: take one little bite of everything and just drink more beer.

He just might be a genius that guy.

What if my thanksgiving dinner was a small bowl of pasta which I later hurled? Sure, pneumonia sucks but I don't have to go running to keep the pounds off.

Same here, except I had Thanksgiving dinner with the inlaws at 1pm and the another one with my side of the family at 7:30. So +20% and then double it for me. Yeesh. That brings me up to around 28 miles. Guess I'm walking to Tysons Corner tomorrow.

bummer of a way to spend TG.

pnemonia hurt me so bad once, that I can't even spell it correctly.

Ha!
Went to my mom's today, just in time to catch her cussing like a sailor at a botched batch of dressing.
She threw the entire container into the garbage can, and said to me: "F*ck this. I haven't cooked a decent Thanksgiving dinner in 20 years. You cook."
So I made a lasagne, and all was well with the world.

/You can't walk shiat like that off

The real key to dieting is to realize that fasting is a method of getting high.

Seriously. If you wait long enough, you get totally loopy and everything becomes kinda funny, and not only is it free, but you save money by not buying food.

/not doctor recommended
//attempted fasting may also lead to the development of anorexia, religious extremism, or the revelation that you lack any real willpower and can't even skip one meal.

I just weighed myself---I gained two pounds today

And that was a weigh-in after pooping.

Bonzo_1116: And that was a weigh-in after pooping.

I hate that.

I run 5 miles an hour ago usually I run 10 but I gave myself sometime off.

/Didn't eat any more than usual today.

borg: I run 5 miles an hour ago usually I run 10 but I gave myself sometime off.

No way i could run 10 miles an hour.

Thankful to be alive. The rest is icing. Spelling and turkey and all that.

I need a calculator to tell me how much money I just spent on early Black Friday deals.

/not really, I couldn't find anything worth waiting in those long ass lines for

Demand narckotics from your DR. It'll fix ya right up.

There's something off about that calculator. There's no way I need to walk 30 miles just to account for one meal.

thankful for well built American car to tote my fat arse around, knock joggers & bicyclists out the way

You all sound fat

log_jammin: It's taken me a year to lose 30lbs. I am scared.

I have a rule of thumb. If you eat X pounds of food, you cannot possibly gain more than X pounds of weight.

/only slightly fat

HotWingAgenda: There's something off about that calculator. There's no way I need to walk 30 miles just to account for one meal.

Well actually that's about right.

Of course you burn many many calories just doing things like breathing and pumping blood. However, if you want to technically burn off an entire meal just through the activity of walking, that sounds about right. For a fatass meal.

that worked for me about 10 years ago. not so much anymore.

5 nights a week at the gym and one meal a day, and I'm still just holding steady instead of losing. working nights is a biatch.

One of the options is seriously 1 cracker with cheese?

The calculator doesn't have cheese curds or beer. Fail.

Well they say one meal a day is a horrible way to lose weight. Better to eat 4 or 5 small meals a day to keep your metabolism continually going.

Dude, your body is probably in starvation mode, clinging desperately to every calorie you consume. You may want to looking into something like carb backloading or intermittent fasting. Or just eating more.

C18H27NO3: One of the options is seriously 1 cracker with cheese?

Yeah, some people just don't seem to grasp the concept of "periodic, unabashed gluttony" very well. The last diet my mom went on had a half cup of skim milk and a half a banana as a breakfast option. They obviously didn't get the memo about skim milk being the devil's milk, either.

I regularly walk 25000 steps a night at work. I have no worries.

/also helps I worked today so I had no Thanksgiving
//oh well, there's always this weekend

TRUTH

Walk 22 miles? Fat chance!

C18H27NO3: One of the options is seriously 1 cracker with cheese?

My thoughts exactly. I had at least 3, with half a glass of red wine before dinner.

12.5 miles isn't bad; i walk that in a week no matter what. I did eat considerably more than usual, but most days run pretty close to the 1200-cal minimum, so that wasn't exactly hard.

One day of eating like a bear isn't going to change much; don't worry about it. It's the rest of the week and the leftovers that are the real problem.

How do I calculate: A turkey leg, a six pack and 4 smokes?

That list was either made by an asshole or a midget.. No one eats the servings listed there.

1/2 cup stuffing? SERIOUSLY?

Pocket Ninja: I had multiple helpings of many of those and went back for seconds and thirds, and there appears to be no way to calculate that. Stupid calculator.

This...

According to the calculator I would walk 500 miles and I would walk 500 more just to burn those 3,000 calories and fall down at your door

Anyone got a Tanita scale?

they really DID pull the numbers out of their asses... there's no aerobic-ketosis buffer at all.

If you click everything the answer is actually about 86 miles but it says 63 or so will do.

Or you could just eat less for a couple of weeks. You burn calories by just being alive. Ever heard of metabolic rate, scaremongering website? fark your calculator.

xant: Or you could just eat less for a couple of weeks. You burn calories by just being alive. Ever heard of metabolic rate, scaremongering website? fark your calculator.

you just suggested that Americans eat less.

you're farking delusional.

I checked ALL the boxes to see the result:

One mixed drink, One glass of wine, A cup of coffee with cream and sugar, A glass of cider or juice, A cup of eggnog, A stalk of celery stuffed with cream cheese, A cracker with cheese, Half a cup of mixed, raw veggies, Half a cup of mixed nuts, Half a cup of fresh fruit, One ounce of potato or tortilla chips, One teaspoon of chip dip, Three cups salad with diet dressing, One tablespoon ranch dresing, Half a cup of gelatin with fruit, Half a cup of waldorf salad, Six ounces of cured ham, Six ounces of white and dark turkey, Six ounces of prime rib, Half a cup of stuffing, Half a cup of cranberry sauce, Half a cup of mashed potatoes, Half a cup of gravy, A baked potato with sour cream, Half a cup of green bean casserole, Half a cup of sauteed green beans, Half a cup of candied sweet potatoes, A dinner roll, A pat of butter, Two chocolate mints, Two small chocolate-chip cookies, A slice of apple pie, A slice of pecan pie, A slice of pumpkin pie, Half a cup of whipped cream, Half a cup of ice cream, A small piece of fudge, A turkey sandwich with mayo and cranberry sauce, An open-face turkey sandwich with stuffing and gravy, ...that comes to 6833 calories. You will need to walk 68.33 miles, 110.20 kilometers, or 136660 steps, assuming you cover one mile in 2,000 steps.

Checking all the boxes is probably closer to the actual amount eaten.

Cooked my first ever Thanksgiving meal this year. Ate it with a Canadian, a Lancastrian, a Yorkshireman, an Estonian and a Dutchman. We went through a few bottles of bourbon making Turkey 'tails (OJ, Cranberry juice n bourbon). I rocked the sweet potato/pecan/bourbon pie posted here last week, as well as a pumpkin pie, a banana cream pie, a lemon cheesecake and a spiced apple pie.

The sight of the meal I had prepared filled me with such pride. Especially the 2-gallons of home-made stuffing. I kinda cocked up the giblet gravy, but there was plenty of bisto on hand...

Barely moving today.

Yeah I jogged about 9 miles today. 5.3 in the morning (3am since I couldn't sleep) and 4.45 miles at 11pm since family was going to bed.

Lost about 40lbs this year and have a weight loss challenge st the local gym. Not too concerned.

As for the dinner, we had vegetables and guacamole for snacking. Ham and mashed potatoes and croissants were the meal, with some other sides as well.

I had about 5 croissants, two slices of pie, and one slice of pumpkin frosted roll. Plus lots of ham.

But considering how much I ate in comparison to the typical thanksgiving dinner (not a lot) plus burning 1500 calories running, not too concerned.
