How Did I Do Over the Thanksgiving Holiday?

Thanksgiving is over, but I still have leftovers! I didn't do too terrible, but I definitely didn't eat healthy. I ate some white meat turkey with mashed potatoes, corn, green bean casserole, cranberry sauce, rolls and stuffing... SO pretty much ONLY carbs! :( I don't know my official weight yet because my weigh-in is on Tuesday, but I feel like I may have gained a little back that I lost last week. We will see! Oh and in my next post tomorrow I will tell you about a really neat new device I just got to calculate body fat percentage! It is really neat. :)

Thanksgiving is Right Around the Corner

Thanksgiving... time with family to share what we are thankful for and a time to over indulge for most of us...  Last week I lost 8.4 lbs, and I think that is wonderful. This week, I am worried I will gain it all back and then some. I am going to do my best not to overindulge. Tomorrow night I will be driving 3 hours to my parents house so my mom and I can do our annual black Friday shopping event. I get off work at 11:00pm which will put me at my parents house at around 2:30am, just in time for shopping. Sleep you say... who needs sleep. So Thanksgiving day is my first worry about food because when I am really tired in order to keep my self awake, I snack... excessively. Then is Friday, mom and I will be out and about getting our shop on and we will most likely eat out somewhere and Friday for dinner leftover turkey dinner. I am leaving to return home to my husband on Saturday afternoon after I get my hair done at 2:30pm which will put me back in town around 8:00pm. You might say well that's not too bad, one day of overindulging. But wait, there is more. Saturday evening when I arrive back home, my in-laws will be here and they've decided to bring Thanksgiving to us! We will have a Thanksgiving dinner on Saturday night and then they will be staying in town visiting until Monday which means more eating out while we show them the town. This weekend could simply be a recipe for disaster for me! I guess we will have to wait and see.
