Well am I the only one that is not going to watch on Thanksgiving? Just wondering. I can't diet on Thanksgiving or any other holiday. I guess I really need to be good in between. Hugs Denise

I always think I will behave myself on holidays but never do... at the very least we will be attending less holiday functions this year than usual because we usually overextend and overstress, as for the meal I prepare I will be trying to thin down the dishes a bit in the preparation... wow justifying how much Im gonna eat before I even eat it rofl theres your answer....:)

I'm going to be careful and try very hard to stay on track, I've done so well losing weight, I don't want to gain any over a holiday. Every one knows I have a different food plan but I plan on having one special item for dessert, but other than that I'm gonna keep doing what I've been doing.

I have always allowed myself to enjoy Thanksgiving. It wouldn't be thanksgiving if I did not allow myself to indulge in the festivities. I look forward to the turkey w/stuffing & gravy & cranberry sauce. I love the candied yams & pumpkin pies, etc...
Enjoy the day with your family & friends. Thanksgiving is a special day & you should treat it as such. Without our special days, life would be bleak & boring.

My hat's off to those who can eat moderately on Thanksgiving. I'm not going to stuff myself, but I do plan on having whatever I want, basically, which definitely will include a dessert! I've not had any sugar for ages and am so looking forward to it. Everyone enjoy your Thanksgiving, regardless of how you plan to celebrate!

I am thankful that my lapband watches my portions for me. I usually try to eat protein first but Thanksgiving will be a day where I snack and don't concentrate on protein/veggie ratio.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
