to stay on the beach without weight gaining?
My plan is to write a food journal for Thanksgiving week, and Sun. thru Wed watch my carb intake,and use low glycemic index foods.Thursday I will eat and enjoy portion wise of course and than on Fri and Sat. go back to watching my carbs and going back to the low glycemic index foods.More or less sandwiching the holiday without worry of blowing it this Thanksgiving with aa unwanted weight gain. Hugs Maryann


Hope everyone has a wonderful holiday!!! Enjoy it!!

Hi Maryann,
I'm going to spend Thanksgiving with my boyfriend's family this year, so fortunately, I'll only be facing those foods for a few hours and it won't be in my house!

Here's a good Thanksgiving idea from today's Daily Dish!
New Stuff for Your Stuffings
Stuffings get their fluff from bread. If you're in Phase 2 or 3 of the diet and want to include stuffing with your Thanksgiving Day feast, choose a whole-wheat variety. Or consider the following ideas, which will reduce the amount of bread or replace it altogether:

I've wondered about cranberries, and here's a neat post about that famous side dish from today's Daily Dish!
Cranberry Relish
Cranberries are terribly tart. If cranberry relish is among your Thanksgiving Day favorites, consider sweetening it with a sugar substitute like Splenda. If it's the idea of a fruit garnish that you really love, then a relish of apples, dried apricots, toasted walnuts, parsley, and a little chicken stock could fit the bill. You might even be able to add some cranberries for color. But be careful: Dried cranberries are often presweetened with sugar, so try dried cherries or experiment with fresh ones.
