    Default I made it through the holidays!

    I truly thought this Thanksgiving would be difficult for me as I host 30 family members every year and I cook every dish you can think of, and then the family brings their dishes too. I went on a bender this year making all new dishes and decadent desserts. I was worried I wouldn’t be able to control myself with all the good food available and hey we all know it’s possible to eat around the sleeve. But I did VERY well and actually still lost 2 pounds this week! I want to wish everyone a late Happy Thanksgiving and say thank you to all of the members of this group who make the journey toward a better life easier each day.

    I made it through Thanksgiving, too. Only gained 0.2 pounds as of yesterday morning. Then Sunday night happened and I stayed up all night eating everything I could find in the house. Apparently tonight is a last night repeat because I'm stuffing cheeseburger casserole in my face as I type this .

    Hope everyone had a happy Thanksgiving.
