Re: Thanksgiving

My husband and I are having dinner with his family...they know we are doing Atkins and his mom and grandmother are very supportive. They will definitely notice if we are not following the WOE! lol. I feel much more "peer pressure" among my own family.

Cleo, your excuses cracked me up. I especially like the one "I tripped over the dog and..." At my grandmother's house we have as many as 10 dogs in the house. Most of them big! Luckily I'm not going over there, so I don't have that excuse.

Re: Thanksgiving

Seriously, folks, why are you pursuing this Way of Life? Remember, we didn't do this because we thought it would be easy all the time. All of us deep down knew there would be times when we would have to make serious decisions. Well, Thanksgiving is one of those times. If you really want to celebrate the holiday, how about thanking God you found (with His help!) this WOE and resolve that this day, of all days, you will not cheat!

After all, it's not about eating, it's about giving thanks! Tell that to your family if they try to give you a hard time. If that doesn't get them, then take them by the hand and tell them you know of a nice church you all need to go to..............

Have a wonderful and blessed Thanksgiving!

SOGA

Amen. Either do the WOE or don't. I say that cuz I'm an all or nothing chick and it got me far!!!!!!!!!!!!
