Good morning ladies! The C & H stands for Christmas and Hannakah(spelling) as i don't know which one everyone celebrates. For me it should be fit for C & B as the day after christmas my husband and I are going to the Bahamas for a much needed 4 day vacation! So how did everyone make out for T-Day???? I did fabulous! I had a nice size serving of everything. I enjoyed every bite and was satisfied without seconds. I was at my inlaws and i swear they had more deserts than regular food! They are italian. The weird thing was i didn't want the desert. Not even a bite. It just didn't appeal to me and i didn't want to eat something just to eat it. Plus i think had i eaten a piece of pie it would of put me over the top and i would have been stuffed. I love that my thinking has completely taken a 180 and i don't find the need to binge eat till i want to burst. Its such a relief and i don't get that anxious feeling worrying about being around so much food. I did watch my inlaws have like 4 deserts each which started to gross me out. They are all very much overweight and to see them have 2 huge platefulls of food and then 4 pieces of pie was just gross to me. But all in all it was a nice time with family and friends. So now we move on to the holidays! This morning i was up at 6 and did CC#4 on the elliptical. It kicked my a**. I'm happy that i'm finally getting into these workouts. Its like a love hate relationship. They are sooooo hard when your doing them but when you finish you feel so accomplished. I'll need to order some more of them. Right now i have #2,3,4,6,8 &9. Anyways, i'm going to vegout in the sun today with my mom and take it easy. Hope you ladies had a wonderful T-Day!!!!!
Fit for C & H

Hi Kariev:
I'm in! we had a nice quiet day, no huge array of foods and only one dessert! I had cornish game hen, asparagus, roasted baby red potatos w/ garlic, sweet rolls, sweet thai chili cream sauce (ok, the worst of the bunch! but SO YUMMY!) and apple pie with Lowcal vanilla ice cream...
I was a little full, but didn't overindulge and managed to hold off for a few hours for dessert, so it made it a little more appealing... I'm with you and get grossed out when people have tons of food and then don't even come up for air and head for...a.....4 servings of dessert???... ick!
My pie didn't turn out quite the way I would have liked it to, as I think I should hav etaken out the pizza stone, because the top was all done but the bottom crust was not... so it was a little doughy, but the rest was nice and flakey...
So, now we turn our focus to C&H. I celebrate Christmas, however, as I have no idea whether or not we may be moving within the next month or so, I am having a hard time committing to putting up decorations and a tree... I'd hate to go through all that work and get everything put up and then have to scramble to not only put that stuff away, but everything else... Hopefully I will have some news this next week and can plan our lives for the next month more confidently...
Not sure what workout, I'll have to check the November rotation, but I think it is GS CT or GSBSB... but whatever it is, it will sure feel good!
Oh, forgot to mention that I will NOT be participating in Black Friday indulgences, but may do a bit of shopping online! for all of you that are already out and read this upon your return, you brave souls you!
have a great day!
