This Thanksgiving will be my final feast and meal that I prepare. My family doesn't know this yet and I'm sure they will be surprised. For the final goodbye, I will cook a pleasurable meal that will consist of an apple cider brinned turkey, spicy fried chicken, cornbread dressing, greens, mashed potatoes with parsnips and chives and sour cream, brussel sprouts and leaks, and top it off with a peach cobbler. For snacks, I'm roasting chickpeas covered in cocoa powder, brown sugar, and sea salt. (*Remember the warning*)
 
I plan to partake in some of it because I am still in the pre-op phase of my plan so I plan to drink loads of water and exercise like nobody's business to help purge over the weekend. However, this will be my last hoo-rah with these fanfares. I've had final goodbyes before to food but what makes this one special is because I know that the sleeve won't permit eating like this again. Therefore, my teen kids and my supportive husband will need to adjust to this new way of living. This is their final Thanksgiving meal of this magnitude at our home.
 
Say hello to a NEW lifestyle!

Happy Sunday Funday everyone!
 
Every Saturday Morning is my Weigh In day and yesterday was my 75 pounds mark! I was to excited and I had to celebrate. Also I was getting bored being in the house so I went shopping! The first thing I brought was a bra, I've been dreading this day for a long time but I knew I needed a new bra. Of course my fun bags shrunk not to bad but they did. I love my new bra it amazing how the littlest things bring me joy.
 
Then I went to my favorite clothing store Dots! I had a $10 off coopin so that was even better. I brought me a couple of outfits and some accessories.
 
Since Dots was close to my parents house I had to stop by and see my parents. Guess who greeted me at the door when I walked in? My nephew! I was so happy to see him and my dad was up watching him while my mom was out. I owe my dad big time so I told him to go to sleep while I watch Fun Boy (my nephew).
 
I just like to say I am Bubble Guppies out and wore out. Fun Boy had me all over the place. But it was worth it. When my mom came back we talk for a bit and I showed her my new clothes, She congratulated me on my weight loss and told me that I should go home because I was over doing it. Mom knows best right? I told her that I had to go to Dollar General first then I will go home. So I did.
 
I finally got my appetite back too! Protein! Protein! Protein! was the plan yesterday and they was what I had. Can I make a suggestion to you guys? Danon makes a fruit greek yogurt called Light & Fit. It has 12 grams of protein and it 80 calories! If was so good!
 
After reading a certain someone blog entry yesterday, I was convince to have some Chinese food. I had orange chicken with veggies and that was my lunch and dinner. And the St. Louis Blues won yesterday!
