If you can only have one indulgence bite at Thanksgiving, what would you select? My bite would be stuffing/dressing. I need that bite of savory bread.

I'm hoping the Chargers take a "bite" out of the Cowboys and actually wins game against a decent team!
The thing I'm looking forward to most is the 5k Turkey Trot in the morning. My girlfriend and her daughter's are going to Universal Studios next week so we'll be out of town for Thanksgiving dinner. Don't even know where we're eating yet.2 -
ME TOO, I signed up for a turkey trot. But later I will indulge in pie and a nice size turkey dinner. Nice size for me is a scoop of everything. My plate is not as big as others attending dinner.3

I signed up for a Turkey Trot too! Out of town. This will be my first. Actually my first athletic event ever. With a loss of almost 100, I'm waiting impatiently to post that MFP milestone screengrab!4

Aztec4Life, I can't let the Cowboys lose since I live in Texas, but if you beat your best time in the Turkey Trot I'm willing to cheer a little for the Chargers.3

@loveshoe Deal! My PR in 5k is currently 27:45. I'm way more confident I can break that than I am the Bolts beaying the 'Boys!0

For those saying "pumpkin pie".... OMG... this!! Just the insides... https://www.bariatriceating.com/2015/10/no-pie-pumpkin-pie/
I made the recipe with the 2% evaporated milk and pumpkin pie spice instead of the separate spices... it ended up being 77 calories for 1/8 of the pie. (2g fat, 10 carbs-7g sugar, 5 g protein.)
No Pie, Pumpkin Pie!
Author: Susan Maria Leach, Before & After
Ingredients
One 15-ounce can Libby's pumpkin purée
⅓ cup Truvia sugar replacer or ⅔ cup Splenda granulated
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground ginger
¼ teaspoon ground cloves
2 large eggs
One 12-ounce can evaporated milk
Splenda sweetened whipped cream
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350° F.
Mix the pumpkin, Truvia, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves in a large bowl.
Beat in the eggs.
Gradually stir in evaporated milk.
Pour into glass or ceramic baking dish. Bake until knife inserted near the center comes out clean - this time can vary greatly depending on how big a baking dish you use. Cook until done, but if you use a pie plate, 25 to 40 minutes is a guide. Cool on wire rack, then either serve at room temperature or chill. Serve with whipped cream.6 -
I will be eating some green bean casserole!
The bite I worry on... cranberry sauce/rolls.... I can give/take the rolls... but cranberry is THANKSGIVING!
I am sad on not drinking cranberry wine with my meal....0 -
