Can Thanksgiving really be just a few short days away? It seems like only a few short weeks ago we began this Empowerful! Health and Fitness adventure.
I know I'm looking forward to this Thanksgiving for many reasons. JAWZ may think he's got an upper hand with tradition and family on his side, bringing in the reinforcements to encourage extra eating. I know I'm going to surprise him.
I'm feeling much too good about the progress I have made to spoil that progress to play with JAWZ. 12 pounds to date! I am looking forward to going over my sister-in-law's house and playing with my nieces - I may even let them convince me to play with them before AND after the meal! I do plan on eating some healthy veggies and plenty of water before leaving our house. I will make sure that more of my plate will be devoted to healthy items. Mark is making this great dish with brussel sprouts (didn't someone blog about that?!) and carmelized onions. And I know I want to stop eating before I feel full.
I am so grateful for each and every one of you, for the support I feel, for the things I am learning, for the ways I am changing. I want my family to see by my actions, even more than by my words, that I AM different. I can focus on enjoying their company and on reflecting the many other things I am grateful for in this life.
Looking forward to spending time with you on the call tomorrow night!

I think this is great San! I plan to go into my meal not starving by eating healthy things before hand. I am going to my sisters and she always has her ex husband and his wife to every holiday....it's mostly about the grandchildren and it took me a while to embrace this. Now that I am divorced and may be faced with the same situation I think it's great! You have a great day Darlin'!
