    You didn't have time to track! I'm glad you were able to have a great holiday.
    Thanksgiving went well for me. It's much easier for vegetarians! :D

    Hey Randi, I was vegan for a while when I went on The McDougal Plan to get my blood pressure under control. The mechanics of the diet were not hard to follow, but this little gal who grew up on a cow farm really missed her hamburgers. We ate them for breakfast when I was a kid! My brother still runs the farm, so there is never a shortage of beef around here. I gave up trying to fight it and gave in to taking BP meds.

    I was never a meat lover so giving it up hasn't bothered me one bit. I would have a hard time not eating yogurt, eggs, and cheese, though, so I haven't tried veganism. My older daughter is vegan. She and her vegan boyfriend will be with us for Christmas, so I will have to brush up on my vegan cooking skills!
    I didn't track today because some days I JUST DON'T WANT TO! In spite of that, I think calories were probably okay.

    My daughter was vegan for 5 years, until she decided to try to get pregnant and her doc didnt approve. My old standbys were baked sweet potatoes with cinnamon, steamed kale with a drizzle of oil snd lemon juice, baked butternut squash, roasted brussels sprouts, and colcannon without the cheese. One or two of these at each meal with a salad and she never complained.

    I went over on calories. We went out for Indian food for dinner. It was delicious. I hope you did better than I did. :)

    I had a salt bloat today, so I didn't bother getting weighed. I knew it would just make me mad! :D I had to skimp on exercise today because I didn't sleep well and was just exhausted. Food was okay. It will be an early night for me.zp907hcmlsfu.jpg

    We are doing our annual trip for Christmas fun….Scottish Christmas parade, nighttime boat parade of lights on the river, shopping and our favorite five star restaurants. There will be lots of walking but no tracking.
    Starting Monday,I am planning a big reform.

    Good morning. Ann, it is nice to have you back. I am so sorry to hear about what you have been going through and hope that your husband gets diagnosed and treated soon.
    My only complaint is my weight which is slowly but surely drifting upward.Today, I am up 1.9 pounds since my last weigh in. :(
