My appetite was back Sat and it was two moderate turkey day meals Sat and again Sun evening before the last of everything but the turkey was gone. I had turkey sandwiches Sun and Mon mornings and today I chopped up the rest of the white meat into my chicken salad recipe (celery seed, mayo and raisins).
After all of this I have put the carcass in the freezer and still have a leg and some dark meat left which will probably go into the freezer too. I was going to make turkey noodle soup last night but gagged at the thought. To be honest I am ready to start gobbling if I eat one more bite of the stuff. Also I had that bowl of leftover cabbage to finish so I mixed that with the turkey broth and tossed the turkey into the freezer.
I have a roll of hamburger defrosting. I had Texas toast with the cabbage soup last night but there are about four giant slices left. I am thinking chili or spaghetti with a few slices of Texas toast. It will be perfect for this rainy day. The temps are dropping and it will be freezing by evening. A hot bowl of chili would feel good - and it won't be turkey *BG*.
I have to say I am proud of myself. One to two meals per day and all average size. I spread the pies over 10 days but I did suck the seven cookies down in one practically one bite :) I have been having apples and raw nuts in the shell for snacks. I covered the table with giant bowls of each to keep me motivated and from looking for other things and it seems to be working. (Don't forget I am lazy LOL.)
The rain should clear out tonight so I can bake bread tomorrow. If so then I think I will finish out the week with grilled ham & cheese, peanut butter and fried egg sandwiches and bowls of chili and stew.
Happy Dieting
