I don't feel as bad after taking a two hour nap

In a way, I'm glad it's done. Too much fuss over just one birthday!

I too had a full plate, but in moderation. I’m the chef in the family, and take great pleasure in cooking for my family on holidays!

We had the full array of feast items with the family in Minnesota as well. It’s been a great season. God bless to all!

 

[cosgig]

We also filled up on Christmas Eve, which is the party at my wife’s family. Chinese food on Christmas, and a rousing rendition of deck the halls, ala A Christmas Story! Fa Ra Ra Ra Ra, Ra Ra Ra Ra!

Christmas Eve was at our house this year for the wife's side (her Sisters's and kids) + our kids and significant others... stuffed with Ribs, pizza and salads up the ying yang, Christmas was the wife and I with WAY too much steak, hot dogs and veggies on the heated rock and today is our "Christmas" for 5 of us. Just finished helping the wife get a 16lb Bird in the oven for a 7pm dinner. Better get out to the shop and work off a few pounds before that happens.....

Making me hungry even though I just ate a bowl of goulash! It needs more chili and onions though.

Finally got below 200 about a month ago or so and so far, it's been hard to keep it off. Been 190-195 from 235. I'm 5' 9" and small frame and 235 felt like crap!

Here's a secret: Eat for what you'll be doing the next 3 hours; Taking a nap, eat nothing. Shoveling the snow off the driveway, have a good meal.

Ok, when I said I was the chef in the family, well.....

This is me in 1989, waiting to go on Good Morning America with my sous chef for the episode. She was in town with Big George campaigning for the 1990 election. I also bought Gabe Kaplan his lunch at the restaurant I worked at, he was in town for the same reason. I was a little chubbier back then!

Glad he didn't entitle it, "I'm stuffed".

My father took great delight many years ago on Christmas Day, while carving the turkey, in asking my wife if she needed stuffing.
