Happy Thanksgiving!!

Oct 11, 2009

Well I can't belive it.  I just made a whole Thanksgiving dinner for my extended family (14 people - and that's only my husband's side).  I had mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, corn, turkey & stuffing, pork and of course gravy!  I also made a work of art kind of cake.  A four layer pumpkin and pecan delight with cream cheese & caramel.  I did it all...I didn't go overboard and hurt myself.  I had a taste of everything including a fork full of cake (small fork) and I feel great.  I didn't feel cheated because I couldn't go nuts.  I felt like I enjoyed the fruits of my labour without worrying about what anyone else was thinking!!  For the first time, it was just food, that's all, just food...Is this what's it's like to not use food as a crutch!!
