Is anyone else thankful ...

that you don't eat that way all the time?! I am!! Don't get me wrong - I did a kick a** workout of LIC and the KPC cardio premix yesterday before heading to my mom's for Thanksgiving dinner. I didn't eat a huge quantity - but the quality - oh my! The butters and the creams and the sugars and the sauces that go into my mom's meal prep were just so heavy! I was miserable last night - though not overly full. Just really made me thankful that I am able to - and choose to - eat much lighter most of the time. Amazing how your body gets used to certain foods. It just gave me a better appreciation for my own quirky eating habits.

Darn right!x( I cooked, so we had a very reasonable menu - turkey (which I didn't eat), mashed potatoes without all the crappo, sweet potatoes mashed with dried apricots (yum), steamed broccoli and pumpkin pie (didn't eat that, either). But we also had a couple of bottles of champagne then three bottles of red wine... between five of us. It's always the wine that gets me!!! ;( Today was back to austerity!:7

Not to brag or anything, but I went to my Mom's this year, and she cooks everything healthy and light. Everything was organic and whole grain and there wasn't a simple sugar in sight (except for the cake I brought). Okay, I am bragging. Her wonderful, healthy cooking gave me an appreciation for great food from an early age, and I'm very grateful to her.

We went to some friend's house and they are trying to get into the
"healthy eating" habit, so the food wasn't bad this year. I even took a RF/RS banana pudding that was to die for! I guess that because I didn't go overboard this year, I actually didn't feel bad or yucky at all!

But, to answer your question...I am very glad that I don't eat like that anymore (like I used to!!!)
