MLWF Thanksgiving Aftermath

This is the Saturday after Thanksgiving and I am surviving.

Haven't posted in a while, didn't feel like I had anything new to say, until now.

I have transitioned into my maintenance fat class and I find it very helpful. My goal from now until the end of the year is not to gain back any of the 70 lbs. I've lost to date. Still want to lose another 30 lbs. or so but for now I am just trying to maintain.

I made it through the actual Thanksgiving meal by choosing to limit my plate selection to only 4-5 items vs. the 10 items available.

Appetizers on the other hand were a little harder for me and my nephew did make cheese dip...MAJOR weakness. Didn't go crazy but damn did it taste good.

Couldn't drink too much (even though there was family involved) because I had to drive us home, probably a good thing because I did make some better choices as a result. No desserts for me, since I have been eating less I really was very full and the thought of eating more didn't appeal to me...this time anyway.

With weeks to go to get through the holidays I am still just taking this part of my life one day at a time. I have work and personal events to attend in the next few weeks, I guess we will see how I do, I'll keep you updated.
