Oh sure - I've PIGGED OUT before, but nothing can compare to the caloric intake of yesterday's Thanksgiving feast. I went to a dear friends home for an amazing meal, and the food just kept coming and coming - so of course I kept eating and eating. Everything was homemade and I had to sample everything multiple times.
I kept hearing 'where do you put all of this food?', or the classic 'do you have hollow leg?'. I couldn't help it - besides all of the traditional dishes there was also Beef Wellington, Chipotle Sweet Potatoes, Bernaise sauce, Pumpkin/Cranberry/Fig Pie.....omg - I think I'm getting hungry again just thinking about it.

I'm guessing that I ate at least about 8,000 CALORIES over the 6 hour feast. I was so uncomfortable that by bedtime I swore I would never eat so much again (yeah, like that's going to stick). Ugggh, why do we do this to ourselves at the holidays? It's both enjoyable and miserable.
This morning was painful as I did a 1.5 hour workout while sipping YOGI Detox Tea. I'm trying to get rid of the Piggy Pants feeling but it seems to be lingering around. I normally wouldn't care - but I have some awesome dresses I need to squeeze into for my upcoming Palm Springs bash.
Today I'm surviving on low sugar protein shakes, egg whites, arugula/tuna salad and anything else low protein. Did you overeat too? Please tell me about it so I feel better.
Party dresses will start being posted on Monday!

I think I may need to look for this tea-possibly online. I've been looking for a good detox tea lately but haven't found over here :(
I swear the key to not over eating on Thanksgiving is to host it. The last three years I have done so well at not overeating, it's just not worth the pain...but you do only live once. Instead I drink too much :)
I didn't over eat because I don't like a lot of Thanksgiving foods! No pumpkin pie, pecan pie, stuffing, weird salads, ect. that are crazy! I just had turkey, mashed potatoes, some green bean casseroles, and some appetizers! I've been counting my calories and didn't do too bad on Thanksgiving though! Hope you ended up okay! :D
