So what is everyone doing for Thanksgiving?

So what is everyone doing for Thanksgiving? I personally will be sending the hubby and kids two hours away to the in-laws while I relax on the couch, in my PJs, and watch "chick flicks". I knew this surgery had to pay off in some way!

My husband is a firefighter and he is working tomorrow so we will be joining all of the other families at his station for a huge potluck. One of the hotels is catering the main meal and we are all supplementing with other dishes. I just finished baking 2 upside down apple pies myself. I'm not too worried about what I'm going to eat because even though I'm suppossed to be on solids (week 6) I still cannot tolerate them. I'll be sticking to soft foods. The company is what is most important for me tomorrow and the thing that I will focus on instead of the food.

Cheers!

We will be driving about 45 minutes away to my husband's family. I am not to sure how I am going to handle the drive or the food since I just had surgery Monday! Even so, I really want to get out of this house and get some fresh air. I am still on liquids. So, the Thanksgiving meal will not be a treat for me.

I will be cooking...have already done the mashed potatoes that need to be baked, green bean casserole also needs to be baked tomorrow i made a pot of greens with smoke turkey tails and will make the mac and cheese tomorrow...

I just got a fill yesterday and can not eat a thing I am super tight and all this food is driving me crazy!

I am cooking the entire dinner ... as usual. My brother and his wife are coming and my sis and of course my 2 kids (20 &22 - they still live at home). I did prep work last night and made a dozen red velvet cupcakes w/cream cheese icing. I have not touched even ONE of them. YAY! I made the mac and cheese and dressing today and will put the turkey in the oven in the morning and make the greens and the yams ... and of course the rolls. I am not worried about overeating because I have been under the weather today. Went to work and was sent home. I don't have a cold or anything contagious so cooking is not a problem. I am hoping to feel much better tomorrow.

Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Well I just had my 3rd fill yesterday, so my Mom and I will just make our famous broccoli dish and if I can handle it I will put it in the chopper. We decided to cook the whole deal on X-mas day as there will be no gifts this year, as I am wearing it inside my tummy!:Banane04:

Happy T-day All

I am staying home by myself. Family all out of state. Son leaving for Kuwait next week went to see his dad, but I had him to myself last weekend.

Well I will be going to my man's family house. I'm still just sampling food to see what this band will let me do. So I really don't plan on overeating at all! I had my first (slime episode) so now I am being really careful. I'm hoping to get some soft food down. I wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving!

Cooking, cooking, cooking. Really going to try hard to only eat dinner on a small salad plate. I can eat anything at this point. I don't know if that's a burden or a blessing?!

Today is only day 6 for me so ...nothing doing but liquids.

I usually have my family at my house but not this year. I called a friend and asked if my daughter could come to her house for the traditional dinner.

This is a small sacrifice for the good of my goal ... and it is good to know that during the Christmas holiday I can eat some real food. I will go to my sister's house at that time and enjoy friends and family.

I'll be home today... i'm even considering going to the Casino.

I'm making myself a pumpkin Soup and along with some sips of Cranberry juice, that's what I'm having for Thanksgiving....

By Christmas, i'll be allowed to have some Thanksgiving -type food... so I'll take the (L) for Thanksgiving.

Going to the in-laws but the day before Thanksgiving I cook our own turkey for leftovers. I did the stuffing (son loves it) but no potatoes. I usually bring the Desserts so yesterday was pie baking as well. I'm not a sweet eater as a general rule so no temptation there. This morning I'm making my mock mashed potatoes (cauliflower mashed with cream cheese and butter) and my sugar free cranberry sauce. Oh...and I still have to make the rolls, which I also bring. *Then* I can relax.

I'm doing a non-traditional ham and scalloped potatoes meal and I plan to eat it in moderation. I normally low-carb, so this will be a "treat" for me Then tomorrow it's back to the usual.
