I love this post! I agree, everyone wants to reeeeal deal on holidays. Traditions are traditions. My mom always tries to bring in healthy options and I tell her, year after year, “Just do your thing mom, Thanksgiving is ONE meal…and I want the traditional stuff. Unaltered!”

Mmmm! I love this post, thank you! I also posted about Thanksgiving today and how to remain at Your Happy Weight (I love that!).

Well you may be happy to hear that Grandma is not bringing the creamed onions! The Pilates Studio is booked solid Friday and Saturday and we are adding in cardio this week too. Tonight I am making huge salads with broiled crab cakes. I will have to check Nuval on crab. I have a simple recipe just 1 lb crab, 2 tbs of mayo (I use smart balance light). 1/2 cup breadcrumbs, a dash of worcestershire, 2 tbs of dijon mustard, 1 tbs lemon juice. Mix it up and form 4-6 cakes and broil for about 20 minutes. Yum

I am SO with you on this one. Everyone is so concerned, but it’s only 1 day and you can’t do that much damage in a day and worrying about it is just going to make for a miserable holiday. Try to exercise in the morning, and don’t take any leftovers (or send them off if you’re hosting) and move on.

I can’t wait for Turkey Day. It might be my favorite holiday!

Skipping the appetizers is a good call. It’s less to make, plus who needs them before a feast? And I love the Charlie Brown specials, too. Happy Thanksgiving!
