Turkey day is just around the corner.

I am feeling a little blue about things I cannot eat for the holiday, stuffing, pumpkin pie, cranberries, and mom's sweet potatoes. I will miss my glass of wine.

I know I will feel better this year than I have in years past. I will not be stuffed and miserable. I will be comfortable and be able to enjoy myself. I will be wide awake while others are sleepy.

I am running out of clothes. Isn't that just bizzare! I got on the scale this morning and it read 290. I am the shrinking woman. I fit in booths. I fit comfortably in the chair at the salon to get my hair colored. I do get hungry for foods. I tried tacos. Yum, as long as the shell was fried crispy I could eat it, but I think today I will just do the meat, cheese, tomatoe, and sour cream.

Aquasizing is great fun. I am so impressed at the encouragement I recieve from the girls in the class. All except the instructor are old enough to be my mother.

Anyhow things are going good. I have to remember to eat slowly, don't drink with meals, chew my food very well, and don't let myself get too hungry. I also have to exercise and work at staying fit and getting fit.

This year I am thankful for my supportive friends, family, and a healthier me. Kayaking is just a few months away......
