So does your family have a routine on Thanksgiving?

Can I join you two in this fun-filled Thanksgiving? I can be really annoying, too. Just ask my friends and family. I don't want to miss out on all the fun!

I love turkey with cranberries too!

That adds up to unneeded sugar on my Atkins diet. All-in-all, I think that I am going to do good. I do plan to eat the cranberries in moderation and the sweet potatoes. I will pass on the mashed potatoes so I can have the other two items.

I think that we are all going to do good this time. I will drink tea or water with my meal. Most likely I will not go for seconds.

I have you girls to thank for my strength in this my bad eating habits....thank you all.

I spend every Thanksgiving with my family at my maternal Grandmother's house. We don't have a lot of 'juicey stuff' going on, but we get our share, lol. We always wonder if two of my siblings are going to show. One of them has a drinking problem, and the other just chooses not to show up for family functions for no apparent reason, and usually claims some sort of illness. Last year my cousin and his wife surprised us by announcing that they were going to be having another baby, when their first was not yet a year old. All the men tend to play a game of football before dinner, and then spend the rest of the afternoon watching it on TV. We usually play a board game after dessert. My mother does manage to make some comments about peoples' weight because she is obsessed with her own. Hopefully, she has learned her lesson after commenting on how 'shocked' she was at my oldest brother's weight gain at last years get together. That really ticked him off. I really enjoy Thanksgiving, and not just for the food, lol. I am hoping that this year I will not be overcome by too many cravings. I have been doing pretty well over the last six weeks.

Thanks for the support, Shawna. I'm sorry you don't get to rub the pregnant belly. I loved being pregnant. It was the only time I was happy to be fat, lol.

I haven't got to read the responses yet, but I'm sure there are some hilarious ones.
