    Not really, Just have to plan. Im great at planning so my goal is no eating out or going over til Thanksgiving. If I can do this then I will reward myself with a mani/pedi. I love cooking for the holidays & thank goodness this site has a recipe builder so I can keep track :O)

    Yes. I have two of everything to go to! And none of them are healthy!!! I really don't want to show up with my own food either because I'm afraid it might cause some disturbance. However, I'm getting good at the whole moderation thing and eating slow so I'm not worried about overeating! And with the shopping experience on Black Friday, I'm sure I'll burn up most of my calories!!! :)

    I look forward to them :-) My birthday happens to fall between Thanksgiving and Christmas as well, so it's a favorite time of year of me. I've never gained a significant amount of weight, maybe like 2-3 pounds and then it goes away. My real problem is the winter January - March, when I have no motivation to work out.

    I've told myself that I'm still going to enjoy it and eat good food, just in moderation.
