Made it through the Holiday Weekend!

Happy Monday! DH and I made it through Thanksgiving successfully! We had Thanksgiving at our home this year, first year ever! We had 18 for Dinner. It was Awesome. I had basically four groups of people coming and I broke out the meal so everyone brought something. We made a smoked Turkey and Sweet Potato casserole, Carrots and Green beans, Deviled Eggs and Rolls. My mom came and brought Mashed potatoes, Rainbow Jello, Corn Casserole, Zucchini, and crab tarts. My BF Donna brought a roasted Turkey, stuffing and gravy, and my Cousin K brought 3 totally awesome pies. I also made a butterscotch pumpkin cake and the best ever low carb pumpkin bake. We had tons of food and NO STRESS! It was great, everyone came and brought a piece, we set it all out, grabbed paper plates and silver ware and dug in. The food all tasted great and the company was out of this world. I loved it! DH and I both did really good, we just stuck with the Turkey ,green beans, deviled eggs and I had a touch of gravy. The pumpkin bake was very satisfying. I thought I would be able to just skip dessert, but it was so much better to have this, and it was so yummy!
I actually lost weight! Saturday I had gotten down to 196, but today I'm back up to 199 which I believe is a result of a very salty roast we had for dinner yesterday. Not stressing, I know what to do.
I joined the newest challenge at the LLVLC website and I was down a pound on Friday for the weigh in, and I'm sure that I will be down at least another pound this Friday.

Hope Everyone had a great Thanksgiving!
