Post Christmas Pre New Years

Well yikes. I was doing pretty well with my maintenance for a while, but I made and ate quite a few Christmas cookies, and got on the scale the day after Christmas with a whopping 11 pound gain! YIKES! I'm already down 6 pounds from there, just by cutting back on the sugar.

Traveled to see family for Christmas, but before we left I baked a prime rib roast. Marinated it for two days in olive oil, roasted garlic, and spices. Seared it at 450 for half an hour, then backed it down to 325 for another 2 hours. It was the most meltingly delicious meat I have ever eaten. Because it was prime rib it was very fatty, I think I'd like to try the same treatment for an eye of round roast.
