Hi Everyone! Things have just been SLAMMING around here ever since we left for Thanksgiving last Wednesday...so much to do (unpacking, Christmas stuff, family obligations, work obligations) and SO little time. So forgive my frazzledness.

Came home from Thanksgiving 1 lb lighter than I left, and had a nice moment after the meal where I realized that it was the first Thanksgiving ever where I didn't feel sick afterward. Just ate a reasonable amount, half of my plate was salad, and had some pie. No muss, no fuss. It was a really good feeling.

Plan for today, now that my elliptical is fixed (yay! Thanks, Dad!)

B - English muffin pizza w/ canadian bacon
S - Apple cranberry Zen Fiber Cake
L - Super lean beef chili loaded with veggies (onion, bell pepper, zucchini, mushrooms), little bit of light sour cream and reduced fat cheddar on top.
S - Popcorn
S - Greek Yogurt
D - Grilled chicken skewers, grilled zucchini, brown rice and lentil pilaf.
S - NSA Ice Cream bar

E - 60 on the elliptical!
