Happy Thanksgiving Day!

Nov 26, 2010

I cooked diner for forty people (all by myself), and did not even fix an official plate for diner.  My menu included turkey and dressing with gravy, sweet potatoes, ham, collard greens, green beans, roasted potatoes, mac and cheese, crab stuffed mushrooms, seafood gumbo, shrimp and grits, glazed carrots, fried corn, quiche, coconut cake, pineapple cake, sweet potato pie, chocolate cheesecake and pumpkin cheesecake.  On turkey day I only ate one stuffed mushroom,  and a little of the gumbo.  Today, I actually made a plate that consisted of a small piece of turkey with some dressing and gravy.  It wasn't a half cup of food and I couldn't eat it all.  I wasn't hungry and when I did eat, there just wasn't any room.  I love my band.  There were years that I cooked this menu and would have eaten at least two plates of food before going to bed and would have gotten up and gorged again today.  Just not feeling it.  I'm loving the way I am looking and feeling and will not sabotage myself.
