Happy Thanksgiving, FS Buddies! Today I have been reflecting on all the things for which I'm thankful, and the list is long.
I decided to go ahead and make a mini-feast for myself. Roasted turkey thighs, baked sweet potato, gravy. and the one dish which, for me, it simply isn't Thanksgiving without, green bean casserole. I ate to satiety, and I have to say, it's nice to get up from a T-day dinner and not feel like I'm going to explode! I didn't even miss the mashed potatoes, missed the cornbread stuffing a little (the gravy would have been REALLY good on it!), and the other fixings, not at all. I had one slice of jellied cranberry sauce, which ran the carbs up double what the rest of the meal had, but turkey and cranberry sauce are just a match made in heaven! Still kept below 50g net for the day, and it's my one meal, so I have no regrets. :D
I never realized what good source of fiber sweet potato is, until I entered it in my food diary. I have been a wee bit concerned over how little fiber I get normally, so I may be adding them in periodically. Besides, they're SO yummy!
Wishing you all peace, contentment and joy. I'm thankful for your presence here, for the support and the chance to support in turn.
