Guess what... Today is Thanksgiving! I started my day by giving thanks to God for His provision and strength and just by telling Him that I love Him very much. I then went to the kitchen and made one of my hubby's favorite holiday desserts - "Apple Nut Cake": I prepared Green Bean Casserole, Dressing, Sweet Potato Casserole, Glazed Ham, Cranberry sauce, gravy, real mashed potatoes, and Parker house rolls. We also had fried turkey - my sweet husband did that, all I had to do was cut it up into pieces for him to fry --
Dinner was served and all of my children were there, happy, healthy and whole -- The table looked nice -- Now remember I am on Phase 2 -- but guess what? I had my usual 100g chicken breast and 10oz of lightly sauteed spinach and a grissini bread stick and water! I was satisfied -- Yes, I would have loved to have all the scrumptious goodies... but I would HATE it later -- and I felt totally in control -- here it is 1:46 -- my kitchen is cleaned up and the big meal is done -- I will make it through the day just fine. God is so good! I just want to do this round with honor -- and I can relax during the next big holiday which is Christmas. My dad will be coming and we will have turkey again -- I will probably eat the whole bird! na, just kidding! I just went and had 2 small pieces of Chocolate Delight as my dessert -- I will have my fruit before I go take a lil' nap -- We may have friends stop by later on -- so... Happy Thanksgiving -- I am grateful to God for EVERYTHING, everyday, not just today!
p.s. -1.0 today! 226.2 is the number!
