Halloween Party 2012 - A thing of the past
Oct 29, 2012
Well the Liebengood Halloween 2012 party is over! A good time was had by all. Best news yet is that I didn't even LOOK at the food table. I kept hearing about all the fattening goodies everyone brought but I didn't lay an eye on one. The good news is that on Monday I was down like 3 lbs. In the past I always felt like I was "dieting" every food holiday. Valentines Day....hopefully was still on it after the New Years start up. Easter, usually I had fallen off the wagon and got back on by then. Memorial Day - I think I pretty much enjoyed Memorial Day as I wanted. 4th of July - Protein day so a good day. Labor Day - another good day for protein and always inspired since I am tired of seeing myself in summer clothes - feeling fat. Thanksgiving - a potential for disaster but I typically don't overeat at the meal....its the desserts that are lethal for me. Christmas - same as Thanksgiving but at least I only have my kids and wives over so I can completely control what is served. New Years Eve - we go to a friends house every year and he makes the most AWESOME chicken and dumplings. I try to stay heavy on the chicken with not-so-much dumplings. Needless to say, foodies can live holiday to holiday. I'm really trying to break that mold for myself.
