I figured out this morning that its not the day itself that's so hard - I did so well yesterday - its the leftovers that are bad for me!!!
Yesterday I did so well - and I'm not really sure why!! ha! We started the day going out for breakfast. The only cheat I had there were some grits - I only had about 1/4 cup. And I drank a glass of milk. The rest of the day, I had a few crackers with some dip. At the actual Thanksgiving meal, I ate a little gravy on my turkey (which has flour in it, of course), I ate one bite of stuffing and decided it wasn't good enough to waste my cheats on and some jello salad with Cool Whip (which tasted sooo good - how very strange!) and a couple hours later I had a slice of chocolate pie. That was it. I went to bed feeling pretty good about myself.
This morning I had mashed potatoes and pecan pie....and its not even lunch time yet. So that's it!!! I'm done. I've had what I wanted - well, that is, unless some of that jello is leftover. ha!! I may have a little of that later. But no more cheats! I feel satisfied and feel like I've had the things I wanted. So, lets break down the things I ended up wanting...
1. grits
2. milk
3. orange jello salad
How every strange.....who woulda thunk???

Hang in there Girl. You're doing great picking and choosing your "evils" instead of going crazy with everything that's available to you! Rock on! (((HUGS)))

lol, it is pretty strange that you wanted some things that had nothing to do with a traditional Thanksgiving meal! Good job, you barely ate anything yesterday, probably why you were hungry this morning!

It's the leftovers that are bad for everyone! I made sure not to take any that weren't good for me to eat. I made my cranberry orange jello salad sugar free, so I don't feel bad eating leftovers. I don't think the milk is a big problem and grits are whole grain. Suffice to say I think you're still OK. Just get right back on track. Maybe toss the jello and get yourself some S/F jello instead. You'll be fine, but toss any leftovers you don't want to eat. If you can't toss them because of other people in the house just make some substitutions for yourself.

Same here-today is much harder than yesterday. Everyone is gone and I am alone with all this food. It's the sweets that attract me--I don't even enjoy them but somehow find myself picking away. I packed it all away in the freezer this morning so hoping that will deter me. Maybe I should get rid of the microwave too? It makes it too easy for impulse eating. You did well!

Sometimes there is just no substitue for jello and cool whip! If you are like me, it is food from childhood, prepared by mom (or relatives), and a part of family gatherings and joy. Why didn't they make tossed salad and fat-free dressing with the same love and care? Oh well, too late now.
