Hey guys, I just wanted to "weigh in" and see how y'all fared on Thanksgiving. I hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving and a great meal! Don't be tellin' me you had salad with no dressing... that ain't a Thanksgiving dinner! image

We had the traditional American meal... mashed potatoes with gravy, cranberries, chicken enchiladas, barracho bean soup, and pumpkin pie. (I'm not kidding. You should try it!)

On a tangent to the weight loss/eating thing, I've decided to cut back on my wine consumption. I love good wine... wish I could afford it. Actually, I can afford it now and then, but my regular fare has been the $5 variety. If I drink less cheap wine, I'll drop a few pounds, which I'd like to do (the calories in a bottle of wine are huge, not to mention the alcohol, which breaks down into sugars - I think, and does a number on the whole digestive system and liver), AND I'll be able to afford better wine on a more regular basis. Right now I've got a couple nice '97s that are ready to go. Recently, I scored a couple '06 Chianti Riserva's, which I'm going to have to stare at for the next couple of years! Might have to pick up some '04s to tide me over til then!

Thanks to a forum friend who's given me some great advice on that topic. image
