Good Tuesday Morning....First, I want to thank the people who comment on the entries....very insightful and helpful to me and everyone who reads them...
For those of you who are preparing the Thanksgiving celebration, there is no question that you can still have many choices available to you annd your guests that will NOT derail weight loss efforts. The protein choices of turkey, roasts, hams etc are very compatible with your efforts. Side dishes can also include vegetables...not just mashed potatoes , sweet potatoes etc.
Also, consider portion controlling the desserts...perhaps rather than just putting out the cakes and putting out a cake cutting knife in a tradtiional manner allowing a large piece to be cut off, prepare a very small "sampler" where you place a very small amount as a "tasting" plate with a touch of each of your dessert offerings. And ice cream??? Does anyone at the table actually need ice cream on top of their cake/pie?
Try to separate the enjoyment and love of the people you are with from the need to ingest lots of calories. You are choosing to live longer and healthier so you can be there for many more Thanksgiving celebrations.
