Hi , I'm still thinking on what I want to do. I want to do a high calorie burn workout, but I know I will be working out in the morning on that day so I won't have a lot of energy. Of course I could do a long cardio workout that evening after all the food stuff is over and really burn some calories. I was thinking also of doing either an endurance weight workout. Those types of workouts always make me feel worked out at the end. I'm still thinking.........

Guest guest Posted November 21, 2005 Report Share Posted November 21, 2005 Hi , I'm not sure what I'm going to do on Thanksgiving day. I guess it depends on my energy level. I'm not sure if I should do an intense cardio, a strength day or a circuit workout. Maybe I'll do Cathe's Body Max - a little of everything. I should do FIRM Hare since back in 98 that was my first FIRM and I did it on Thanksgiving. That is the tape that got me hooked on weights and got me more seriously into video exercise. Before that infamous day I had a very modest collection of workout videos (they fit on one shelf in my entertainment center as opposed to several drawers and storage boxes and two DVD binders today. I bet my DH wishes I never tried that workout! LOL! Happy Thanksgiving!!

Guest guest Posted November 21, 2005 Report Share Posted November 21, 2005 I'm going to get up early and exercise with Gilad. Burn some fat then eat lightly until dinner. I love to try a little of everything but not to get stuffed. Have to leave room for pumpkin pie.

Guest guest Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 Thanks for the NYT tips Sara. I was brining my birds today and read our FILES section on it one more time. I found about 5 contradictions in the text, none too serious, but I corrected them. I'm a cook that uses pinches, dabs, shakes and lots of seat-of-the-pants cooking but I realize that lots of people need exacting directions. We get it all the time in the beef business, people WANT to know " how many minutes do I cook your steak on each side? " . The Thanksgiving Dinner has lots of pressure built-in because there are numerous hot and fragile dishes that must come together at the exact moment everyone sits at the table, so I think some precision is in order. (It helps if all the adults have had some WINE during that last 30 min before dining!). I'm allowing 3 hours for my 18# bird and 2 hours for my 12# bird. This is starting at 375 for 45 min (breast down), flipping and then finishing at 325. I'm allowing 30 min for the " rest " period. I'm more convinced than ever that stuffing the bird causes you to over-cook the outer surface of the bird to get the dressing hot enough. I'm shooting for 160 internal temperature, although some books have you go to 165. Either is safe, I just don't like to over-cook meat unnecessarily. Good luck cooks!

Guest guest Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 Hi I learned a way to cook and turkey (or chicken) that I love from the lady who owns the stallions in Lexington, KY where I was breeding my mares. Mix equal amount of worsh. sauce and melted butter and baste bird with it (use it liberally). You can stuff the bird if you want. Put bird in a large paper bag (big enough to not be touching on top and so you can staple closed. I cook it at about 350 degrees until done. I put the bird in the bag on a rack in the pan so it doesn't sit right on the pan. When you open the bag once it's done you have a crispy skinned bird that is incredibly moist. The worsh. sauce taste does not come out, I don't know what it does but the flavor is so good. When done, the bag is a bit crisp but it has never burned. There is a bunch of drippings in the bottom of the bag and makes a mess opening it up I admit, but it makes a great sauce. I just use organic corn starch and water with sea salt and that's it.

Guest guest Posted November 23, 2007 Report Share Posted November 23, 2007 Well, I used the brining recipe in the FILES section and I made my best meal ever! Took the advice about leaving the stuffing out of the bird and it worked great! I gots loads more very tasty gravy that could be poured over the stuffing so that made up for any dryness. So far, I saved my brine. If I do it this weekend, do you think I can use that mixture again on a chicken? I wouldn't think any critters could live in that salty mixture...

Guest guest Posted November 23, 2007 Report Share Posted November 23, 2007 Toss out the brine. Critters can live in it. Try buying sun-dried [solar] extra coarse salt which is just untreated rock salt. I use it instead of sea salt. That makes brining pretty cheap.

Guest guest Posted November 23, 2007 Report Share Posted November 23, 2007 > Toss out the brine. Good call! I agree 100%. Not only is it a good media for growth, it's possible that the salt draws out some toxins from the meat that you want to ditch. I spread mine over a huge area of the yard. A bit of salt, widely spread, is actually a good soil stimulant in many cases. HAIN makes a good cheap seasalt too, it comes in the round cardboard containers. That's what I used.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 I'd start with the most recent, actually. There was some imagery with compulsion foods (works really well for foods you might be exposed to over the holidays that you wouldn't even dream of eating the rest of the year). It was kind of fun--almost more of a game than a guided journey.... I searched for " holiday " on the web site with all the downloads (http://personallifemedia.com/podcasts/216-inside-out-weight-loss) and came up with #57. It might also be worth looking for podcasts in late November through January in past years. And I suppose we can share our own tips. :-) Like, just because you eat it once a year, doesn't mean you have to eat a year's worth.... ________________________________ From: mr_lecompte <mr_lecompte@...> weightloss Sent: Thu, November 18, 2010 5:51:21 AM Subject: Thanksgiving Thanksgiving is next week.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 The best Thanksgiving tip I have is to remember that I can eat any of the foods served there any time I want. If something is just really good I can make it at home later or buy it. I can always ask for the recipe if I want " Aunt Sue's Sweet Potato Pie " instead of just a generic pie. If I can make it at home anytime I want it, I don't have to eat past full to get it all in today. Another favorite tip I like to use at " all you can eat " restaurants or anyplace a large variety of food is offered: Take a walk through just to see what all is there, don't take your plate. Think about all the different foods that are offered. Then walk away for a few minutes. Without all that food in front of you, what were the best things offered? if you could only put 3 items on your plate what would be the best tasting ones? which ones would feel best on your tummy? Then go back and get the best things at the table. For me, I don't really care for the turkey, and I usually don't want the mashed potatoes or the green beans. My favorite things served at Thanksgiving are my mom's cranberry salad and my dad's dressing; sometimes I want the sweet potatoes or some of the deserts. Today thinking about what could be available at Thanksgiving I would really like a big green salad to go with that. If we celebrate at my in-laws I would just really prefer not to eat. So I try to bring something that I like (if they will let me, some people are touchy about that), and honor myself by keeping busy fussing over my children and fetch-and-carry for older family members. Then no one notices that I didn't bother to eat much or anything. I will eat before I leave home and/or when I get home. This is how I keep from overeating when the food isn't good. I don't know why, but I will get food expecting it to taste a certain way and when it doesn't I will just keep eating. . .like maybe in a bite or two the flavor will change. ..sounds crazy to write it. (I so love the pre-do for these situations) This year we are having Thanksgiving at my house. Anyone coming to Thanksgiving at my house will be asked to bring their FAVORITE Thanksgiving dish. I will make a ham (because no one in my house really likes the turkey that much). Then I will ask my dh and each of my kids what their FAVORITE T-giving food is. I only make the things that get voted favorites. That really means that we have ham, sweet potatoes, and dressing. Plus I ask my mom to bring her cranberry salad. Who knows what my mil will bring. Anything else can be purchased from the store already made or very close to, I only make the non generic favorites. Mrs. can make the pumpkin pie. One year we just made the sides and didn't even bother with a ham or turkey. My in-laws complained, but everyone else had a great time. No one went home hungry. I have to keep reminding myself that I do Thanksgiving at my house because I enjoy it. I am not doing it to impress my mil (cause that just isn't going to happen).
