Thanksgiving

[Guest guest]

I'm going to treat it like any other day also. I'm just going to eat small

servings of things that I really love and don't get the rest of the year.

So, I guess its' time to ask about Thanksgiving. How's everyone planning

for it.

For me, we're having it at our house, so I'll have a measure of control

- access to

my measuring cusps, food scales, etc. I plan to treat the day just like

any other

day (sort of) - I'll do a lite breakfast - we're going to eat early

(about 1:30), so I'll

have a taste of most of the goodies and turn this into a little heavier

lunch (I plan

to have flex points available if I need them) - and then I'll do a lite

dinner.

All leftovers get either sent home with people or portioned off / frozen for

the days/weeks following.

I'm pretty confident about handling this day .... I've made the decision

that I

won't let Thanksgiving or the holiday season derail me - I want to be close

to 180 Pounds for the New Year!!!!!

My week starts on Thursday so I will have Thanksgiving with all my Flex Points

(I don't know if that's a good thing or bad thing) I am also cooking and will

have complete control over how things are prepared and how much I eat of it. I

am also doing the desserts, I am making a WW apple cake recipe and some banana

pudding using FF SF pudding and low fat vanilla wafers. The rest of the menu is

somewhat healthy so I am not too worried about it. I am kind of worried about

using the flex points that day along with having a 4 day weekend. Guess I will

haev to make upp some AP's with all the shopping I plan on doing Friday

Hi Dana,

I have to say, you offering to share Thanksgiving dinner with Bonnie really

underscored for me how incredibly special this group is. Talk about SUPPORT!!!

Wow!

Thanks for your offer of hospitality to another member Dana. That is really

a great example of supporting each other :-)

I was very touched by your email.

Thanks for caring so much.

,

Thanks for the nice words. Every year I try to invite someone for Thanksgiving

who isn't able to spend it with family and Bonnie popped into my mind!

Thanks again for the kind words.
