I don't think I should do a recap, but here goes:

Thursday
B~egg mcmuffin
L~ cheese and crackers, a couple of shrimp with cocktail sauce
D~the whole shebang--turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, cranberries, green beans, corn pudding, candied yams, wine, 1/2 slice chocolate walnut pie

Friday~
B~egg mcmuffin
L~burger, fries, beer
D~the whole shebang all over again, this time with mincemeat pie

Today will be interesting.
B~not sure, but I'm out of egg mcmuffin fixings...perhaps oatmeal
L~not sure, right afterward we're driving to Riverside for a wedding
D~not sure, but probably Italian at my cousin's house after the wedding (which isn't related to the wedding).

Sunday again will be interesting. We'll try to take in a movie, and afterwards we're going out to dinner.

ETA: Saturday's meal consisted of baked beans, pulled pork BBQ sandwiches on homemade rolls, Chinese chicken salad, and mac and cheese (which was quite dry and unappealing, but I ate it none the less). Didn't drink much. Oh, and dessert was homemade oatmeal cookie ice cream sandwiches--couldn't pass that up).
Sunday was egg mcmuffin/quesadilla/tamales and wine. Didn't add up to much food, but I was not hungry for any of it except the egg mcmuffin. I need to start listening to my body and not just eat when "it's time."
