We had a great Thanksgiving this year. Matt the kids and I went to my Mom's house and enjoyed a relaxing time with family. We had a ton of food and I tried out a few new recipes including:

Pecan Pie Bars
Smothered Green Beans
and
Sweet Onion Tartlets

They were all very yummy! I feel very good about my diet and I didn't eat so much that I was stuffed. It is nice to not feel sick after Thanksgiving dinner for a change. :) I am down 106 pounds now! I would have liked to be down a few more than that by now, but at least I am still making some progress. Here is a picture of Monica and I on Thanksgiving this year and the second picture is one of Monica and I on Thanksgiving last year. WOW! What a difference a year makes.
