What are you planning to eat this holiday season that won't set you back with your weight loss goals?

    I measure out my carbs sometimes but actually I am making butters apples (made with canola butter) instead of pie and I am having spaghetti squash instead of mashed potatoes, green beans (steamed) with parm cheese, turkey of course, some corn (maybe) and then a walk LOL.

    I'm eating everything that I usually eat at Thankgiving. I'm going to get a good calorie burn (2500) and eat normal portions.

    I plan on exhibiting self control ( also helps i cook most of the food and host at my house) I already know that i will be having a piece of pie for dessert and accept that. Honestly telling myself all week that the veggie try is the only appetiser i will be having and no alcohol this year ( which is also due to plan on shopping at midnight). If i have to bust out the food scale to weigh out the turkey i am going to. As for sides i plan on having one spoon full of the sides that i want to eat. Also gonna skip the bread this year.

    Going to either run or bike in the early morning, and then try to limit the whole meal (dinner & dessert) to under 1000 calories. Hopefully about 5 oz of protein, half a plate of steamed veggies, and one starch... and then two small dessert items! No alcohol either.

    Am really not going to deprive myself but also will make sure to have everything in moderation and stop when I'm full instead of gorging myself. Hoping to get in a nice long walk in the morning which will help offset the little extra I plan to have.

    Turkey, cheesy cauliflower, turkey, roasted asparagus, turkey, Trader Joe's low-carb gravy, turkey, pumpkin muffins made using Atkins' low-carb muffin-in-a-minute recipe, turkey, deviled eggs, and follow that with a chaser of turkey & a side of turkey. I don't know what the rest of the family will eat, since I plan to eat the entire bird... :tongue:
