    I'm just going to eat 1/4-1/2 cup of everything that I want (luckily, that isn't much from the choices), & distribute it throughout the day so that I don't overeat. I'm going to eat more of the desserts; Thanksgiving & Easter are the only times that I eat these sweets!

    Just remind yourself, 'there's always tomorrow to eat more'. That's the best way, I think!

    I don't think I'll log, but really I'm not too worried. Turkey isn't high cal, there's lots of veggies involved. Compared to some other holidays it's pretty safe in my opinion, but we don't do the candied yams or any of that. My son is making a pie from an actual pumpkin so I will be having that for sure!

    Sample a little bit of everything a spoonful will do it. Don't stress about the calories...The Holiday is stressful as it is so don't add to it :) Consider it your free pass of the week and add an extra work out.

    Well, turkey is good for you! If you want to keep to your goals on Thursday, keep your servings small, eat a lot of veggies that aren't smothered in something and go for a long walk or to the gym.

    But, whatever you do, don't feel bad or guilty or stressed. Enjoy your family, give thanks for all your blessings and relax! :)
