Wow – actually managed to drop a bit the day after Thanksgiving (although assume most of it is just dehydration). Had a good day yesterday. My wife and I relaxed at home in the morning and then went over to a friend’s house for dinner in the afternoon. Food was great. I definitely went over my carb limit (who knew leeks had so much sugar in them) but kept things within reason.
After a duck confit, mushroom, and leek appetizer, I had turkey, roasted cauliflower, green beans, and kale but passed on the bread, sweat potatoes, mashed potatoes, bread pudding, puff pastry, and desserts (although I did have a spoonful of the bread pudding and corn-bread stuffing and brought a sugar-free Jello pack for dessert). Overall a great night with friends!
After dinner we weren’t really that tired and my wife decided she wanted to do something ‘crazy’ so we went to the midnight opening of Macys in our town. I have wanted to buy a leather jacket for the last 3-4 years but have never actually found one I really like (I went to the Macy’s Black Friday sale last year and tried on an (XL) leather jacket that didn’t fit). This year they had some really nice leather jackets on sale for $70 at Macy’s this year and I found a leather jacket size (L) that I could fit into! Now in reality I should probably have got the (XL) – but the (L) does fit and I figure at the rate I am losing it will be the ‘right’ size before long.
Anyhow, hope everyone else had a good (American) Thanksgiving. I am going to finish off my coffee and then head out to the gym.
Be Happy!
