I should have exploded! (LOL)
I have thought about this all day and I really want to know what did everyone have at their Thanksgiving meal(s)? Here's mine
b - Ham and Cheese french toast sandwiches and a glass of OJ
l/d - slice of turkey, dressing, corn bake, broccoli casserole, sweet potatoe souffle, mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, cranberry jelly, most of it with gravy...and apple cider (All of these were about a table spoon size and I could not finish my plate!)
s - roll dipped in gravy (go**** was yummy)
dessert - some apple from apple pie and a scoop of icecream.
OUCHIES......not done yet!
Late snake - the rest of what I didn't eat at lunch/dinner.
I should have exploded an hour or so ago!
Okay - so it's ONE day a year....I don't always eat like this but I overloaded on the carbbies BIG time. Back on track tomorrow!!!
What was your Thanksgiving meals like?
Working today so family spent Thanksgiving Dinner at Dennys. Surprised that NONE of us ordered the Turkey & Dressing.
B-6oz yogart with 1/4c raisan bran (trying to get in more fiber)
L-4oz talipia (fish) with green beans, 1 onion ring
S-1/2 apple
D-Dennys leftovers: 4oz talipia, green beans, sliced tomatoe
Had some coffee for the first time since surgery...won't be doing that again...had my insides all tore up!!
Got in my water & vitamins. No exercise though...took the day off.

S - three string cheese sticks, peanuts
Late night snack - diet coke float
I kind of did explode

We went out...no way I was going to cook and couldn't eat. So, we went to Golden Corral....which was very good. I got a plate of food with the following: turkey, gravy, dressing, mashed potatoes, mac & cheese, and green beans. I, of course, didn't fini**** all, but it was REALLY good!!!! I tried to eat a bite of banana pudding, but it just didn't taste right. I didn't eat any breakfast because I knew we were eating an early lunch. For dinner, I had almost a whole bowl of chili from Waffle House....yes, Derrick and I ate dinner at Waffle House. It was very good...and, WE FIT IN THE BOOTH!!!!!!!!
I'm glad everyone had a good day. I hope to see you guys next Saturday. I'm getting excited.

I am pre-op, but was curious as to what life would be like this year if I couldn't gorge on food... so here's what I ate yesturday:
B: breakfast sandwhich
L: one small slice turkey, 1/2 spoonful cranberry sauce, 2 spnful green beans, 1 spnful stuffing, 1 spnful potatoes
D: one small slice turkey, 2 spnful green beans
S: tiny bowl leftover chinese from fridge
Is that even close to what you guys can eat?!?
I was pretty hungry all day, but I wanted to see if I could mentally deal with being around food and just NOT EATING!!!
How did I do?
