I will absolutely be CHEATFREE.

My thanksgiving dinner I don't think will be that big of a deal for me. I can pretty much have everything we usually have (Turkey, celery w/cream cheese, deviled eggs, relish tray,), the only things I need to make alternitaves for are potatoes (will make mock), hash brown casserole (will make spinach casserole, and a green bean casserole). I am not big on pumpkin pie or deserts really so I am fine with that!

I will be cheat free. I will be cheat free. I will be cheat free.

I am so afraid that if I fall off again, I won't be back until I gain 20 pounds and get desperate.

Count me in....I vow to remain cheat free this weekend and beyond

Thanksgiving will be easy for me...I opted out of a few invitations for assorted reasons. I will make Turkey, mashed cauliflower and salad. For snacks if I want them, will be celery and cream cheese and/or Pork Rinds dipped in Ranch Dressing. Dessert (if necessary) will be Diet Rite Jello.

Re: The weekend before Thanksgiving cheat free challenge thread!!

Friday down and here is Saturday bright and sunny in these parts. Im keeping busy running errands and puttering around the house today. Bought a chicken last night and intend to make it into some soup after a meal baked chicken with fauxtatoes this evening.

For Thanksgiving, I am having turkey and ham, fauxtatoes, pumpkin "squash", green beans, will pass on the stuffing and cranberry sauce. I make the gravy so will try to make something to drizzle over the plate that is legal. Think Ill try a legal cheesecake for dessert while everyone else has their pumpkin/apple or chocolate pies. A little family time, cribbage and some movies will round out our day here. The weather channel predicts snow showers so we could get anything from a dusting to several inches.

Re: The weekend before Thanksgiving cheat free challenge thread!!

Like Jaime said, I'm going to fill up on the Atkins Approved foods. I have family coming and therefore there will be mashed potoatoes and the like but I don't have any desire now and I hope than to have any.
Until next weekend I'm for sure CHEAT FREE and I expect to say the same the day after.

Hang tough everyone!

Re: The weekend before Thanksgiving cheat free challenge thread!!

2 days of the challenge down!

How are all my cheatfree weekend challenge buds doing today?

I had chicken for breakfast with a tb of mayo, 1 oz swiss cheese. 1 cup coffee w/ cream.

Lunch will be chicken caesar salad

Dinner............. still thinking on that one.

It is supposed to be almost 50 here today so I figure its my last chance to give my car a good cleaning before it stays cold for the season.

I also get to meet dd's new boyfriend today. That could be interesting. He has "never had to meet the parents before being allowed to date someones daughter before". LOL He never met me either.

Re: The weekend before Thanksgiving cheat free challenge thread!!

OH, the agony of defeat. DH took me to a movie last night and popcorn is such a weakest. I ate a whole (small bag). I'm so ashamed and only hours after stating my resolve to not cheat. What a unloser I am.

I WILL BE STRONG TODAY AND NOT CHEAT.
